The game was fun. I ran out of torches so I was just running for a while.
The menu, graphics and audio are all very good. The gameplay is a bit simplistic but suits the theme well. Good job.
I enjoyed playing through this game. The music and art were both quite good and felt very nostalgic. I also liked the animation of Sisyphus rolling down the hill with his boulder. I made it 2175 ft.
Good job on the game. You fit a lot of mechanics into this one. The graphics and sound quality were good. Overall, I think the game is a bit difficult. The controls for the shield were a bit confusing and I didn't like how the the UI of the power ups blocked part of the incoming enemies.
The game was pretty fun. The art was very good. The enemies had a nice variety and the shield enemies were a unique idea I haven't seen before. The only complaint I have is that the sounds became a little grating as I was just holding J the entire time.
Very unique and interesting concept. I enjoyed the worldbuilding and using the map/crests to figure out the suitor's whereabouts. I'm going to give it a more thorough playthrough when I have time.
Your idea is quite unique. I got 22 deliveries before I stopped. Overall, I think the game was a bit too easy. Unfortunately, the issue with the sensitivity remained.
I really liked this game. Everything from the gameplay to the art is very well done. However, I kept running out of O2. I assume that you are supposed to kill the big alien mouths and then seal the rooms afterwards to prevent the O2 from being vented out?
Good job on the game. I like the art and the music.
@cosmicallity I'm glad you liked it. I didn't have time to balance the game, unfortunately. What did you think about the drop rates of the upgrades?
I very much enjoyed this game. The only issue is that I was not so much delaying the inevitable as I was speedrunning the inevitable.
I agree with what the others have said. The game's art looks good. The design of the tower before it falls into the lava is a nice touch. The gameplay is also fun. My only critique is that some of the jumps seem impossible without taking damage and I found it easier to just ignore the lava power ups and keep on running. Good job.
