Cool game, reminded me of arcade style twin stick shooter games. Having speed and weapon based power ups are must haves for this type of game and I was very glad to see they were included to spice things up. I thought it was interesting to try and make it a platformer but I think it might have worked better top down. Mainly because after a while I realised once I had a good enough power up I could pretty much just camp by the plant and move the mouse either left or right. Art and music were cool too.
Edit: Forgot to add, I really liked the dash mechanic too!
9 out of 10 players approve of this game... which one am I? I'm part of the majority! It's a nice simple game, childishly disgusting premise with a doctor with a great bedside manner.
I had a lot of fun, nice game mechanics and cool art style. Plus I love dogs so that made it a big hit for me. The dog took up a very small part of the game screen that was shaking though, which made me strain my eyes a bit when playing on the downloaded windows version. That might not be a common problem though. Had a blast though, looking forward to your future games :D
I really liked this one, on point with the theme, nice graphical style and funny concept. It was satisfying hitting the enemies but I felt the game play could've been a little bit more difficult. Maybe if there were a few more enemies on screen, or if the ghosts moved in a wave rather than a straight line? Controls were tight and overall felt really nice with the controller.
The visuals and audio were superb in this game, the audio in particular really helped get me into the rhythm aspect of the game play. I did find myself skipping large sections of the text to keep myself focused on staying alive for longer, which I guess was the point but it made me care less about the outcome of the plot, I just wanted to live for as long as possible. That said, the idea to make the rhythm tied to your life was genius and I was enamoured to the mechanic instantly.
I enjoyed it, would've liked more of a challenge but the core game play was compelling. I actually found it very relaxing to play. Also well done for programming the whole thing yourself, would love to see code on future projects if you are willing to share.
