I really liked this game, the graphics look really nice and do well with the game itself and so do the music of the game, the gameplay is really interesting and fun to play, I wonder how speedruns in this game would look like, play it safe to get to the end or throw the ball arround to finish faster? In general this game is really good!
I'll start by saying that the art is maravilous, it's a fun and simple game but it has a story in it, so I think the game could have an ending scene after you survived quite some time (I survived 10 minutes so I'm not sure if it does have), also I founded some bugs in the game, mainly with the inventory screen, I could only select some of the tiles that I had itens and some that I didn't and I could offer food without having it in those tiles. But in overall the game is really good. Great Job.
One of the best games I played yet on LDare 46! The music is really good and so is the graphics, the idea behind the game was really cleaver, the game is challenging because of the low speed of the player. Everything fits really nicely in this game. Amazing Job!
I really liked the art style, and the jokes about using baby as food are really funny, there was one little movement bug that happened to me but that's it, the music also really fits the game. Great work!
I guess everyone already said that, but the graphics are amazing, the gameplay is fun and very interesting, the colors really stand out, the game has some 4th wall breaks and I liked that a lot, the music is good, everything fits really nice, one of the best games I saw in LDare 46 and it is a compo. Amazing Job!
Wow, what an amazing game, the artwork is really good, the dialogue is funny, the music is really nice, gameplay feels good but if you keep atacking next to the invisible wall you go through it and you can keep going, also the delay for the special attacks is quite high, meaning that in the most times the basic attack is better because you won't get hurts as easily. Overall it's a really good game, one of the best I played yet! Wonderfull Work!
This game has a lot of potencial, you should definitely work on it in the future, the animation is really good and smooth, the gameplay is really fun to play, but a lot of things are missing, as you said you didn't had time to complete, even though I'm probably going to say something you had in your mind to put it in the game, but I'll say anyway.
- Add a start menu - Let the player use their itens in the inventory - Expand the map and maybe add some NPCs deppending what is the storyline your doing it. - More variety of itens, after battle or collectables from the ground. - Maybe when you expand the map, you could add biomes with different itens, enemies and music. - Other options in the attacking mechanic, add buff attacks and things like that. - Itens you can hold to boost stats, like armor and weapons, but you could make something different.
Those were the ideas that came to my mind, of course, is up to you if you are gonna add them or not. Also you did a very good job with this game. Keep the good work!
I really liked the movement of the game and the mechanic to throw around your idol for survive, it has a good amount of levels, the graphics and the music are pretty good, and I founded a away to get out of the level as other people say too. [Screenshot_1.png](///raw/a01/e2/z/32575.png) But I really liked the game, great job!
@abdul-zakkar I escaped from 2 levels, 5 and 6 if I'm not mistaken
The pixel art is really good, I loved the cutscene and the sprites you made, the gameplay is also really fun. But, because of some bugs i couldn't play all of the game, one bug didn't move the camera to the other room, and the other made me stuck after I steped in a certain tile. But, ignoring those the game is really good. Great work!
The mechanics of the game are really cool, I really enjoyed playing this game, the artwork is nice, the music is good. By far the game i spended the most time playing in this game jam. Great Work!
@tomssuli The game was really hard, because enemies came from everywhere, so I couldn't see it lol.
@tomssuli I finished the game now, after I passed a long time surviving the end screen apeared, and I think I know how to decrase the spawn rate but I won't tell anything too :stuck_out_tongue:
One thing to mention first, the game is really hard (or I suck at playing it), the artwork is nice and i liked the way the button works, the gameplay is pretty interesting but if I could see a better display of the flowers would make it a lot better, also you could change the tutorial test color, is quite hard to read. But, making this project alone and in 2 days is really surprising! Great work!
What an Amazing game! I really liked the idea of the gameplay, the music fits well and the graphics give that GameBoy feel! And the history behind it is awesome! Marevilous work!
I really liked this game, the puzzle is quite diferent of what I imagined before, it's quite hard so I couldn't make it to the end, but I went far. The music puts a pressure on the player and I really liked that feel to the game. Graphics looks nice. Also something that quite bothered me was the instalation of the game (it doesn't really matter but I'll say it anyway), I don't know why but the instaler was in Russian and I didn't know what to do, but I figured my way out so nothing bad. But forgeting that, the game is really good, it's the first puzzle game that I played on this game jam. Great Work!
The game graphics looks nice and the music fits with it, the gameplay is really adivtive and fun to mess around. After exploring and killing some bosses I noticed that your life bar only updates when you get hits, this makes hard to keep track how much health you have left, and in the 3rd wave the enemies, when too close to the turrets, don't get damaged (I don't know if that is a feature or not), one think that I would recomend is, after dying the player should get quicker in the tree to respawn by how long is taking (raizing velocity by time). In general the game is really fun, one of the best games I played yet, Great work!
@lukebenkart Oh I see, haha my mistake, I'll play the game again and change my feedback then.
.
As the other people said a tutorial is missing, i played the game and noticed that problems appeared on the spaceship and I couldn't fix them, also i could upgrade the spaceship without needing the materials, because I think you didn't had time to implement those features. The game has some bugs, but in overall is pretty fun.
The game could have a minimap, because it is easy to get lost, it could also have a tutorial inside the game, but those are just details. The graphics looks nice, and it have very nice details. Pretty good in general.
I really liked the mechanics of the game, mainly the flashlight one, it's a really fun game, I didn't find any bugs, the music and SFX were really put in good use. Great work!
This was one of the funniest and greatest games I ever played in this jam! It quite surprized me when the rock started moving, the graphics looks nice, the music is calm and it fits in the game, it is really fun to simply mess around with it, and the game show a lot how creativity can be used! Amazing Job!
I really liked the editor mode, since you give more options to the player to use, the game fits the theme, the pixel art is really high level, but I didn't saw an ending screen and the start button didn't disapeared, I was confused in what I should do at the start and I got the hang of it. The game is pretty good in general. Great work!
@abdul-zakkar If you check the left corner where the spells icons are, you can see that the icon gets darker when it is in the cooldown, it's kinda hard to see so I don't blame you haha.
About the scrolling spells, we actualy thought about that, but it would make parts of the game (like the parkour at the end) a lot harder, we also thought about using the screen shake effect on the final animation, but the time to end the jam was really close and, I at least, didn't know how to do it. But I'll make sure to use those things in future games. Thanks for your feedback!
@sprouty51 Well I made the music in less then 1 hour to finish the game jam so yeah it is really trash :laughing: , Thanks for your feedback!
Thanks everyone for the votes, we've made it though the goal!
@banzi Yes you did found an easter egg congrats! And we forgot to add the music to the start menu too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Thanks for your response!
@joamd Yeah the player gets stuck sometimes, it's because we used tiles and we tried everything to fix it, the only thing that helped a bit was using a capsule collider, and we did use transform.Translate ( transform.Translate(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * Speed * Time.deltaTime, 0f, 0f); ). Thanks for your feedbacK!
@joamd try explore the game to find it :stuck_out_tongue: but i'll give you a clue, after getting some books, try go back and search, but the reward is not worth it...
@joamd we tried some of that things, but it was no use ;-;
@simansimon We are thinking if we will continue the game, it was supposed to be just a try on a Game Jam but the game actually looked better then we expected, so maybe we could polish the game and add more to the story, but we would need to think how we can make the game more than a simple plataformer, but I think we would be able to do it. Thanks for your feedback!
@joamd If we updated the project, we maybe could put another key for the spells, since you can use "WASD" and the arrows to move, we forgot about "WASD", thanks for remember us that!
@nunoribeiro I really liked the invincibility frames idea, we should use this in the game if we are going to continue! @nanolotl Well the arrows for sure aren't a big help to know the direction really, but we didn't thought about any other way (we only noticed this problem about 3 hours to the end), and honestly I don't thinkl the music is goos as well... I'm trying to learn more how to use other programs and learn how to do some good music loops though.
@animaster The enemy attack speed is fast because when the player enter in contact with the enemy colider, it starts attacking, so sometimes it attacks multiple times and that wasn't our intention, we tried to fix it but we couldn't definetly this one of the biggest problems in the game...
@g12345 Well, the fixed build has the ending scene without bugs and some arrows to guide you. Since the game has a pretty small size, I recomend you to download again.
@g12345 Well, I think some effects should actualy be added, I just don't really know which ones I could put, but I think that screen shake is quite a good idea, we aren't going to add more things to the game for now though.
The game is really fun to play, I loved the idea to have to fight lose life while walking and having to fight to heal, the art is simple but really good, the attacking system is quite hard to use, since you cant attack up and downwards, ignoring some little bugs the game is pretty good!
The graphics look really nice, but the movement is a little wonky and quite hard to use, the was some minor bugs to. But it really fits the theme. The game is nice in general :D!
The game is quite hard because your lives are really easly taken, I liked the graphics but the tiles good have a little more work on them, the level design fits with the movement well, but powerups don't respawn meaning that you can get them only once, there was some little bugs but nothing that breaks the game, overall the game is good. Nice Work!
