You brought me gold? I want silver FWOOSH! You brought me silver? I don't want it anymore FWOOSH! An emerald? I don't want it FWOOSH! Another emerald? I'll take it!
That sort of amusement aside, I thought it took a bit too long for the difficulty to ramp up. Maybe I should have built more mines after raising the cap enough...I might try it later since I liked this game.
Seems like it might be a fun game, but when the only other spider online is AFK...
I love the idea of deflecting things with the sword, but pushing enemies seems way too difficult for some reason. Still, I kept going forward until I couldn't go forward anymore. What to do with the big sword?
I can't control this game worth a crap, but it's so much fun anyway. Sumo Diet's my favorite, though I'm always flinging myself out of bounds.
I'll clean up the floor and the litterboxes, but I am NOT touching those countertops. Need to remember avoiding the letter 'r' when naming cats...wait, who has the time to actually NAME their dozens of cats?
Very nice twist on the theme.
With a gameplay loop that goes deeper than punching fools that get too close, this could be good.
"The biggest rock you can imagine." *draws circle all the way around the paper so that it'd be even bigger than the desk* "You can draw bigger."
This was fun. Those fireballs seem to have quite the hitbox on them though...
Game stops after clearing the second level, although the leven select screen shows four.
The levels and enemies were quite samey and bland, but everything else was full of attitude. Loved the sound test...
I really liked the recoil and how it made me actually think about where I'm shooting (besides 'at the enemy'). With that, the Laser Gun powerup kinda blanded things up in my opinion. ...but then, I also loved the victory lap.
Love the way I need to figure the rules out as you go. ...but it certainly took me way longer than I should have to notice the last basic thing I needed to not get fired on day 1... cleared day 3 eventually, but that was brutal.
This is definitely something I'd want to see developed into a full game, with a grander scope, more enemies, hazards and decision making. Excellent game.
404 Not Found. :(
Very clever take on the theme. Found most of the weapons annoying to deal with though. Good riddance to them.
That said, with more feedback and some optimization this could be a lot of fun. Note: Played HTML version on Medium level.
@Ninnec I found the abundance of green webs to be very annoying, as being slowed down by that just wasn't fun. It meant I needed to dodge those at just about any cost. The bombs, I couldn't tell how strong those were nor could I tell their range. Their lengthy cooldown made them feel like they weren't worth using, but I could be wrong here. And the basic bullet-shooter just seemed weak but I'm probably just nitpicking there.
Strangely fun and atmospheric. That anti-matter knob seemed a bit fiddly, but then maybe all of the round ones do with mouse control. Also love the big red button and especially the instructions.
Had to resist the temptation to carry myself with the cursor. That one level though before the end though. Yikes. Nice game.
I really like the spell combinations...especially Rocket Wizard. This was done in a weekend. I'm just gonna let that sink in for a moment.
Quite innovative. Makes me wonder how this could turn out with even more dev time.
Definitely feels a bit overambitious, but it still looks pretty good for being done over just a weekend, with major setbacks even. I'd pay attention to a full project like this. We need more first-person skeleton punchers in the world.
Very cute! But luring enemies into buttons gets tedious, and jumping over bullets felt unreliable at times.
Fun! I'd spent more time looking for different endings than I should have, though...
Way too easy for my taste. Apparently these enemies' attacks are as limp as their fashion sense.
Awesome music, though it kinda loops in a bad spot. The enemies are brutal, but not in a fun way; and some are even placed such that they're nigh impossible to beat without cheesing the hit-invulnerability.
Loved the variety. Good work. Get more jobs, baby!
Thanks for all the feedback!
Regarding setting the alpha on the whitespace: I tried that in the Unity Editor and faded the guy out of existence. So that was a no-go. I might need to learn something other than MS Paint to pull that off.
I am currently trying to work on the "moving at supersonic speed and getting stuck in a wall" bug, but am...uh, hitting a wall. I'd encountered this bug in the Unity Editor, but after simply restarting the Editor it stopped bugging out. So I shipped it as it was, and hoped nobody would be speeding through walls. I actually cannot reproduce the bug when I play the game on my own page (the guy goes as intended), but it does bug out in the Editor after test-running more than once. So, while I may be unable to fix the some-people-go-too-fast bug, I should at least be able to keep affected players within the game boundaries.
Patch is ~~on its way...~~ up! **A slight fix has been implemented which will hopefully prevent moving-too-fast players from moving through walls!** Unfortunately, affected players will still be moving too fast.
**A new build has arrived! Hopefully this fixes the moving-faster-than-intended issue!** Now hopefully all new users will have a "normal" speed throughout the game, though they still start going faster and needing to go faster as they eat more food. Since this build might be less fun for some users, and possibly even against the Jam rules, I've put it alongside the 'normal' build that has only the wall fix. You'll find the **Post-Jam Fixybuild** on the same page.
Like the concept. But, I don't like needing to lower my font size just to be able to fit all of the text ontot he screen. (I use Very large text size so I'm not squinting at everything. :P)
This...is not a game. But I had so much fun with this anyway. I'm so confused. It probably belongs in another class. I love it.
