The game gets pretty tough, especially sense there is no way of knowing when a fire is all the way out. Sometimes I will think I got it all, walk away, then it start spreading again ;w; Really addicting tho
Ill definately come back to this one. Its really difficult. I wish there were a way to block. Great job tho!
Nice use of the theme, and cool simplistic graphics. For some reason, z to jump felt a little awkward to me (idk maybe im just a blockhead). I enjoyed the game. I think this is one that i will probs play more in my free time
The audio and the mood set by the game where on point. Its kind of hard to see whats going on in the background with the use of all of the white graphics. Cool game :)
Great idea, fits the theme very well
What a unique idea for the theme lol. Neat game!
Great work as always! Loved watching you make it, and its a blast to play!
Love this game!
Wow. The mood this game sets is amazing! Great work!
@triplefox hold on ill look into it and upload a fixed version. Tho I seem to be able to launch the exe without any issues EDIT: Its looking for gamepad input, and cant find any. Hold on, and ill fix it!
@triplefox The bug is fixed. Thank you for notifying me!
@allan-kong Glad you like it! In the future, I will make my games resizable.
@triplefox I am unable to replicate this bug. It sounds like a collision issue between the dummy and the object over the pit that handles the enemy kills. When you throw the dummy over, it should disappear. The only thing I can think of is to try restarting the game.
@guilhermoni Just so we are both on the same page, you are throwing the dummy over the void at the bottom of the game room, right? If there is any way you can send me a video of the glitch @ jmcclure235@gmail.com, so I can see exactly what is happening, that would be great :)
@guilhermoni Glad you enjoyed! Yeah, I agree with you, movement while blocking would have been better, the idea didnt even cross my mind during the jam, lol.
@earnso Thanxs! Maybe they should add a nostalgia rating.... >:). Just kidding!
@hakro In the future, I will make the audio fade in rather than stat abruptly. Thanks for the feed-back!
@whismirk You have to pick the dummy up and throw him into the abyss at the bottom of the screen
@whismirk Dont say that, you're not stupid! I should have made that more clear in the instructions for my game. I had the mind to make a tutorial scene with the dummy, but i ran out of time. ;w;
@sinnis @ronchiko @superpokeunicorn When the jam and grading is over, i will probably make a post Ludum Dare version, to fix the difficulty curve, add a tutorial, add different combat, etc..
Thank you all very much for your criticism!
@taner @sublustris Thanks for the feedback! @colin-misbach Yeah, the overbearing difficulty was a bit of an oversight in the haste of the compo. I made an attempt by putting a limit on how many mobs are allowed to be alive on the screen before more can spawn, but i forgot to put rules for which mobs can spawn at any given time.
@conorod thanks for the feedback!
When I have time tonight, I'll upload a seperate version with a fixed spawning system :)
Cant wait to play this one. I have a good hunch this one is going to win in the jam, lol
I like it! However, I feel as if there definitely should be some sort of consequence for when an enemy reaches the bottom of the screen
Pretty funny idea lol. Picking up the cats is a little wonky tho
The colors kind of hurt my eyes, other than that, really good!
Neat idea! I like the game, and the concept
Only gripe is that i could not find away to close some of the open menus that were cluttering the screen. The overall simplistic and silent audio made the game very eerie. Great job
@whismirk Cool! Thanx. I think this is one of my favorite submissions. For some reason, I find its atmosphere and mood very alluring. Bang up job, man!
Simplistic and easy to learn. Also I like the art style. Nice!
Haha, Great application of the theme. Wouldnt have thought of that. You're *literally* running out of space. Great job :3
Its pretty scary! I felt like i was being cursed as I played it. Great job!
The game seems to open as a background process, so I cant figure out how to play it. Is that just me or is anyone else having that problem?
That was a powerful experience. Great way to raise awareness to a growing problem. Overall, a good game
This is one of my favorites so far i think. The musix really suits it!
This game is tough as nails! Great pixel art as well. Will be playing this some more later!
This is a great idea! I love the drawn-on-map graphical style. However, the game feels pretty slow. Also, some good audio sfx could really help hit
Great atmosphere, and easy to learn. Ill be returning to this one! I hope you expand on this concept
I love it! Thats pretty cool!
That beginning whistle sound scared the shit outa me! Its a cool game tho, lots of fun!
The art and sound design is very nice! Great game. The programmer art gives it a 'feel' that is hard to match purposely, Gg my man
This game is tough! Great submission. Ill definitely waste more hours of my life playing this than id like to admit
The pixel art looks very nice
This is a baddass game! I took me a second to figure out how to play it, but once i did, I had a lot of fun.
This is pretty cool! Ive never been any good at chess, but that was fun!
Surreal techno graphics + Awesome music! Yes plz. Great game
Lotta fun! I enjoyed it
One of the better games ive played. Lotta fun!
Your instructions said space to shoot, but nothing appeared to happen. The pixel art and sfx are nice, but i dont really know what to do... Unless im just dumb XD
This was a pretty cool idea. You should definitely expand on it!
Very well done!
Very well done!
The games controls feel nice, and looks well polished overall
Interesting idea, although a little confusing. Once you get over the learning curve its pretty fun. Also there was not a quit button that i could see.
This was a great idea! Some lighting effects could really help this game I think
'Use esdf to move' I like your attitude, who needs that crappy wasd stuff am I right? but on a rela note, this is a good submission. I like it better than my own XD
It was supposed to cross rpg and puzzle mining style games. Thanks for your feedback!
@ghost-in-the-toast I can do that!
@ghost-in-the-toast Thank you!
@good-enough Unfortunately, some block spawns just leave the player with a (shit outa luck) spawn. Ill be working on some patches and fixes tomorrow. Thanx! Glad you liked it!
@IDidGame The slam is supposed to be quicker, but as you said, it needs some re-balancing for it to be more useful. It might work better as intended, if you use a controller.
@Harry Light @vilix64 Check back in here in like 10 minutes :)
@Keppu The negative score is intentional. If it feels strange, I can change it. :).
@keppu There will be a bundle of different updates and changes added to the zip that will be uploaded to the itch.io page tonight. Ill fix it then. And damn, actually defeating you? XD Thats pretty rough. Ill definitely change that. Another change i might make as well, is changing the interval of time in which you can use the slam ability. I feel like it needs to be used faster for the game to feel more fair. Thanx for your feedback!
@PronomicalArtist Thanx! A lot of others seem to think so as well. Wish I could afford the license to export to mobile ;.; Thank you for playing!
@Connell ill check it out!
@Zak Zeddam Zakaria will do!
@microwerx i can implement that next time i work on the game, which will probably be this weekend. Glad you enjoyed!
@Talops I will be continuing to expand on the game. Glad you enjoyed!
@LemonBalmGames It was supposed to be a cross between rpg games, and some sort of mining puzzle arcade game. It kinda ended up being its own thing tho
@cristiano.m.garcia At some point in the future, i intend on continuing development. Ive just had my hands tied with another project. Ill give your game a shot!
Nice! The pixel art looks professional!
The graphics have an awesome retro feel. Definitely one of the better games ive played
This is a really cool idea! The clean, art and the sound effects, combined with the that background track give the game a surreal futuristic feel! I like it
I like the atmoshpere!
10/10 Would smash. Great graphics as well :3
