It feels pretty fun! While I was playing I was wondering where the 10 seconds bit was but then I read your post. Bouncing about is great, a few small things:
I'm not a PC gamer but with needing mouse, WASD and space all at once I felt like I needed 3 hands.
Also the shooting areas seem bit far away from eachother
If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Wow! This is awesome, feels like one of the more complete games I've seen. If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it!
I really like these Where's Wally/Waldo type games. Yours is no exception!
Yay! A more interesting use of the theme awesome! I also tried to incorporate 10 seconds in multiple ways (in my game weapons have a 10 sec timer but you're also stopping fat people reaching 10 second helpings) so really appreciate what you did there! All in all pretty cool and visuals are great, have you played "Stacking"?
Really cool, congrats! If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it
I'd normally say that I think the do x in 10 seconds isn't really stretching the theme but this is too awesome to complain! If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Really nice although for me the consequences seem a bit too random, I get that you're forcing the player to make out of context decisions but there's less weight if you have no clue what's going on. Also the whole countdown on a choice is fairly common in games nowadays so it doesn't feel like you stretched the theme.
Overall though I really like it, great sense of atmosphere and strangely pleasing visuals
Do x in 10 seconds seems like a pretty easy way to implement the theme. It also needs to communicate what is going on a bit better, overall though it's pretty solid.
If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Pretty cool, I really dig the visuals and music. The idea itself is pretty quirky and fun.
I agree it ends abruptly, my main concern is the implementation of the theme, the do/decide x in 10 seconds is very common. That said there's nothing wrong with that formula.
If you could take a look at my game that would be fantastic :D /shameless_plug
I really like it, best I've tried actually, everything feels mainly solid so my complaints are minor.
Firstly it feels a bit cheap that the slugs's sight seems greater than yours and they can shoot you before you see them.
Secondly once you collect your first chest the theme seems a bit redundant as the timer is now some arbitrary number. Honestly though even I think this is a pretty daft complaint as you still start with 10 seconds but maybe something to think about
If you could take a look at my game I'd be really grateful :)
Really pleasant looking, fun too! I really like it. Well done! If you could take a look at my game I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
It looks good, sounds good and plays well. Very cool :D
This is great, I appreciate the use of the theme especially. Good job :D
Okay, I might have made this a bit a hard :P
I love the wizard character, he looks like something out of South Park :P Anyway, congrats. It's pretty fun
I really like this, great job :)
This is awesome. That is all :)
I like this, pretty funny! Gameplay is a bit standard though
This is one of the most aesthetically pleasing games I've played, it's mechanically solid too :)
I love this! Congrats :D
Any criticism/feedback is greatly appreciated!
Thanks for checking out the game
Not sure if there's a nicer way to respond to people than just a separate comment, so here goes:
thegooffromspace: The laser is definitely underpowered, I didn't really get much time to balance it I'm afraid.
Arcade mode isn't endless, it should end after wave 20. It's all about score, the punishment for getting hit is your multiplier resetting. I feel like forcing you to restart is unnecessary.
As Chaos is endless lives (or a time limit) become necessary so that's why it's like that.
I like it, although for me the start screen felt a bit too cluttered. I had to strain to read how to play, minor complaint but thought it was worth mentioning.
Good job.
I'm just echoing other people's comments but I really like the shapeshifting animation. The huge variety in detail in the art is pretty offputting though, which is a shame.
Big fan of this one. I'd prefer it if the plus and minus blocks were more distinct though.
I can tell the difference, but it was a bit of a struggle and maybe more so for colourblind people?
I really like this game, although changing to the shape/type I wanted was more difficult than I'd like.
I'm not sure if it's meant to be part of the difficulty, but remembering the order the shapes spawn incorrectly, pressing space one too many times and having to cycle through again was frustrating. It didn't help that the shapeshift wasn't as immediate/responsive as I'd like (though that is probably down to my rickety laptop).
I would've liked some on screen visual representation of the cycle, maybe instead of just showing the current elements all 4 could be shown but the inactive 3 at a lower opacity, I don't know.
That's my only criticism though, as I said I enjoyed this entry.
PS Thanks for checking out my game!
