Nice theme for Tetris. I had to turn off the rng because it was a bit annoying, or if you keep it there, maybe make it more rewarding if you overcome it. Not much more to comment on gameplay as it's basically tetris, but the humour, the style and the music were quite top. Very nice!
Really polished, original and addicting. We used similar concept for our game, and also the postprocessing. Good job! You did the whole game yourself?
I enjoyed the shooting, but I had some issues. First, the camera could follow a bit quicker, as I had to get sometimes too close to see what was in front of me. Second, I felt the 'rewards' for restarting the loops were a bit cheap, like a game going suddenly easier on you because you suck. Would probably feel better to earn them after each loop, so you know if you beat loop1 you get X, then loop 2 Y, etc. A bit more feedback on what these items do would be nice as well (I understand in such little time is hard to do many things, just suggestions on how to improve the game further :stuck_out_tongue: )
Great Portal version! Reached level 6 so far. The splashes are actually very helpful, nice work. Is there a GladOs cameo?
Very nice artwork and ambience music. Gameplay wise could have a couple more simple levels to explore the mechanics, because at level 3 there are already multiple portals. Otherwise it's actually quite solid and especially scary.
Very polished and fun. I escaped after 40s. At first I was a bit confused by the arrow until I escaped that I understood. Good job guys!
Very polished, especially if you said you did it by yourself! I reached level 20 and it becomes a bit too hard. In any case, really good job, it's impressive!
@samuli Thanks for the feedback! I like the bullet-time idea for a bullet hell type game
@csomega Getting anything over 60 is actually very hard, so congrats! :grinning: @gamedevmatt That's a huge score. Even making the patterns myself I only managed 99 so far.
Thanks everyone for the feedback! @merlinnsound Yeah, the two main things we want to improve are player movement and the patterns, adding more and making sure you cannot get stuck with an impossible pattern after a hard one. There are currently more than 10 patterns per difficulty and was hard to check all the combinations before the dealine :sweat_smile: @thekingbarry It's quite the compliment that it reminded you to SWH! I love that game
Best game I tried so far! Agree with @rein that sometimes you just have to wait a bit too long for some levels (reached the ones with the switches, level 6 or so), but it's really well done. Congrats!
The only complain about the game is the volume, way too loud. Besides that, very well done. On one side it was satisfying to see it go by itself and making it easier, but on the other, I felt I was getting better at the game but no way to show it. Did you try the other way around? Like you are stuck in a loop and had to break free by getting more freedom by the artifacts?
The game starts being really fun and challenging when green comes! We had a similar idea, but we didn't know what mechanics to make especifically, so I'm glad someone was able to make it. Really nice, congrats!
Nice atmosphere and gameplay is quite solid. Congrats!
It can be a bit disorienting as both sides of the train look so similar, but I enjoyed it. As many people commented, visually is quite impressive and the whole atmosphere is quite scary. Great job guys!
I fell quite a few times because of controls (maybe the mix of 3d and 2d made a bit more confusing) but I think if the collisions are fixed and tuned the controls a bit to make it more precise, you could get some amazing game. The rest no complain really, nice artwork, nice humour, and intriguing overall story. Well done!
One of the best games I've tried so far! Great minimalistic graphics a la Geometry Wars and great new mechanic. Really good job!
We did a similar concept for our game XD. The idea is fun, just way too hard and unforgiving (like others already commented). Maybe could make it smaller so you can see from further away at the beginning and getting closer and closer... and also a score and highscore. In any case, good job and congrats!
Nice twist on the Geometry Wars concept. It's quite fun! Congrats! You could try implementing mouse support for next iteration? :p
I liked the mechanic, where you have to predict the movement (maybe the DVD logo could've been more funny for this game lol and call it don't kill the DVD or something :cd: ) A bit of work on graphics and sound and could be a nice arcade game. Congrats
Reached 95% and not sure which combinations are left :D It's a very cute game
Got stuck in the 4th level I think with one switch and nothing to stand on it? Did I miss something? In any case, it looks and feels good, just probably needs tweaking in the progression (but I guess it's normal due to lack of time). For this version, maybe tips would've been nice... unless it's me who sucks at the game lol Good job!
The idea is very nice, but I feel it's a bit unfair. The controls need to be a bit more precise, otherwise need more time. It has potential to be a great game. Good job!
Very good job! The core gameplay is fun, but adding a couple simple things could make it way more engaging, like for example rewarding the player for chain killing at the beat without skipping or missing.
Also, I would add the 'loading' circle for the bullet cooldown on the cursor, not on the bottom right corner.
Really well done. We went for something similar but different mechanics. The falling down with the weight at the end was really satisfying. Balanced enough to be doable but challenging at the end. Congrats!
Best game I've played so far! The simple graphics and color palette create a really nice mood that fits the theme well, and the gameplay and especially the balancing is awesome, knowing it was done in such a short time. Congrats. You'll end up in the top10 for sure.
Amazing game and experience. I didn't know what I was doing at first but the atmosphere kept me going. Really well done!
The theme and the music kinda reminded me of Outer Wilds? Fan? :smiley:
