You really nailed the sound on this one. The good music, the bang when the title appeared. And the gameplay was very fun and pleasant I just hoped the intro would be passed after the first time, so I can retry faster and not have to wait the whole intro
That was super fun ! And it took me a while to understand some minigames with the stress ^^. Love the funky music (and everyone told you already but slowing the music down was super smart, especially since the music still sounds great) Best combination was something like fly / type a passeword, because I had to switch from focusin on my mouse to focusing on the letters of my keyboard. Add this kind of variety if you put more minigames would be nice (like use some combinations of arrows, the mouse weel etc.)
Really nice entry ! The intro was super fun andthe whole visual was super nice. I strugled to understand how to make upgrades (appart from the three chariots), but this was mentioned previously. I think the sound design was pretty neat and made me enjoy the game a lot
This brought back some good super meat boy feelings :') ! I managed to finish the game and was craving for more ! (Too bad there isn't Phill's house :'( ) I only found minor things bothering me : - It is impossible to go up on the same wall by wall jumping. This was very frustrating as sometimes I managed to stick on a wall just before the end of the screen and was expecting to survive by wall-jumping my way to the top, but this was not possible. - It can be very hard to go out of the water. This was particularly painfull in the second level, were you are in a pool and the two walls are very separated. I think that problem 2 would not be a problem if there were not problem 1 - There is also something I can't really find a solution for, but I found the "throwing the fish" mecanics sometimes frustrating 'cause you had to stop and go back to catch your fish if you were throwing it on an ennemy while running. That's really hard to explain but you can actually see a good exemple at the end of your exmeple .gif : Just before you finish the level, you kill an ennemy with the fish. And if you look carefully, you have to stay still a fraction of a second to wait for the fish to go down. I don't know about others, but this few miliseconds were super frustrating for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this is bad. I'm just saying, if I could Run, throw the fish, kill an ennemy, jump, catch the fish in mid air and continue running like a BOSS, that would be freaking awesome!!! (I'm actually having the image in my head and I'm super hyped ^^)
Wow, I rarelly say that many "negative" things on a game, and I don't want you to feel like I didn't like it. I LOVED the game, it just feels like changing tiny little things could make this game one of the game where I spend hours just to get this perfect sequence of fish throwing-wall jumping-crazy runnin'-combo breaking !
YES! I finely found this game! We were following your blogs on the ld main page and were all very curious about what your game would be! We had actually a bet on wether your game was a rythm game or not This was so fun ! Loved the graphism and the music! And the camera movement to increase difficulty were super smart
Awesome pixel art, solid gameplay and epic music. What can you ask more ? I just wich i could see threw the trees where the ennemies are cause it can be hard to shoot them when they are behind. Also the "earth world" was hard to move around because of the obstacles that were not very easy to see. All in all very good game !
As stated previously, this game have tons of potential! There is so many things that I can imagine being added on a post-jam version (Why not magic spells ? other weapons!). That would make an epic game! Anyway, to stay on the jam, it is true that a feedback on monster would have been great. Since doing a specific animation would have probably been too complicated, maybe changing the color of the ennemyafter a hit ? Probably not the best idear on an aesthetic point of view, but it would clearly shows that you hit. Tiles popping were AWESOME ! However a little delay of them appearing and disapearing could have been more relaxing to watch
This was very nice and polished! The controll were smooth, and more impressive, there were no need of a tutorial or explanations! You could actually play the game right on and understand what to do directly! It felt quite weird killing all those humans though ^^
Absolutely beautifull But it would be better if there were a higher density of things to do. The first ennemy is veeery far from the king and the king don't moove very fast (even with everyone in him) at the begining.
Super fun ! However I didn't manage to kill the rat (I try to use the red object but it didn't do anything):'( Something to improvve the feeling of the game would be to decrease the time to have an activation of a n object after you push a button (ig. water fall)

I really like the idear but it's hard to understand when you are killing the ennemy. Maybe a feedback of some sort would help ?
