Not bad, a bit slow on the bullet side maybe. Hitbox when eating bodies was a bit problematic for me, maybe consider making it a bit larger so you don't have to place to precisely and flip to match the position.
Really hard! It's a very interesting game, I struggled to get to the level 4... simple yet efficient mechanics!
2 buttons was not the easiest way of controlling the snake, but I really enjoyed the game :) Enemy shooting at you feels a bit weird though, as you can't do anything to dodge.
I honestly didn't understood much of what happened. But it look cool :p
Your game HURTS ME. It's mean! :p
My god my hands hurt. Track and field, I hate you.
Awesome game! The wallpaper change was a MUST HAVE feature. It make me younger, to the point my age becomes negative.
19 sec on hard. I'll go put my hands in cold water.
Followed the stream while developing my own game, was really curious of what it would be like. And it's awesome! Dead at 65 of natural causes. Dead a 39 killed by an angry goblin.
You nailed it, I really want to play more to see those dragons and die of old age at 96 in my bed. Keep up Shaun!
Spent longer than I expected growing my giant tree!
9290!
Graphics are simple and gorgeous, I really like low poly. At first I thought there wasn't much to it, but the physics of the plant turns out to make you click like a crazy to go back to the light :p
Nice entry!
1630 points ! is that bad ? :p
Pretty interesting concept, at first I thought it was too easy annnd was proven wrong, it's quite intense. Good game!
Really nice entry! Didn't found all the capsules, but you manage to make a nice navigation with no jumping button. Nice pixel art :)
As for the LOVE version, your game requires the 0.9.2, I had to dig on the love site to find it, here is a link to the page for the others: https://bitbucket.org/rude/love/downloads
There is a problem with the difficulty, you are to close of the emitting point of green bullets (which I didn't understood were enemy bullets, I instinctively thought it was friendly because of the colour), it's really hard to dodge. Bullets are too hard to notice, not bright enough, maybe to small too, which make it hard to notice them with peripheral vision.
Keep up!
Very nice entry! I couldn't get a decent score though, a rampant epidemic of straight males turn every one of my attempts into human extinction :p Only run I made quite long was survival through reproduction between brother and sister... Adam and Eve style!
finished it, liked it a lot, but sound are a bit violent, and the jumping mechanics sometimes makes thing easy, but most of the time provokes unpredictable behaviours, like when dodging enemies bullets, especially in the last 2 sections. You probably should have ditch the tow buttons constrains and made the controls differently.
Anyway, good entry!
Lovely pixel art, fun concept, I'm pretty sure it's exactly how bears hunt.
Well, not so subtle humour, but surprisingly interesting gameplay ;)
A truly excellent entry. I really had fun! So overwhelming when it gets crowed :p Congrats!
Can't make it to the game, constantly crash after the intro...
The mouse controls are really weird, but with keyboard the games is quite enjoyable.
Quite enjoyable game, but I expected my donut to have a hole in it! :p
Not much to say, can only comment on the graphics, they're pretty nice! As far as the game itself goes, I killed both of the monsters, picked up some jars, and went out of the screen through a hole. Controls are okay, but there is no restart button, had to close and relaunch the game once.
Thanks everyone!
No ripatti, it's not a bug it's a feature... I started making level wayyyyy to late (like 1 hour before the deadline). There is only tow "real" levels, the first to one being dedicated to teaching you the basics.
Lesson: don't spend more time making the dirt mining effect than you spend making actual LEVELS.
Ahah Silkworm, wasn't it funny to mine all those piles of gold? Yeah ok, BUG. Bug I squashed, 0.1.1 is out, with the room restart function WORKING (and not only trapping you where you already are), and level switch WORKING. Because it was really badly messed up.
I think the .exe is fine, some anti virus are a bit jumpy... My girlfriend browser wouldn't even let here DOWNLOAD the file. But if nobody had issues running it, I don't see why there would be a problem.
Oh and thanks, I fixed the web link, put it in the Windows field instead ;)
Awesome.
that rockband hair brushing part was hard in the end! Glad I made it in time for the coffee though :p Really nice game, congrats!
Nice entry! Controls ere a bit confusing, and music a bit repetitive.
Charming game! There is some camera issues, specially when you have to make the first long jump, placing it above removes perception of depths. Couldn't go beyond level 3, having to move the crate was impossible due to the small delay you have before picking another flower thing.
Good job overall!
Nice entry! Having to click or press the button is a bit distracting from the dance itself, the animation is great. Keyboard is vastly easier than mouse controls.
Way too hard, arrows are to fast. You have to pretty much spam your attack from off-screen :(
I had to kill some skeletons exploiting a bug and shooting through a wall :p
Nice art though!
Really great, could have played a few more level to explore the core mechanics :)
Not as easy at it seems! Great entry.
Pretty impressive entry! Lot of arts and sounds here!
Couldn't get to far because of the controls, being on a AZERTY keyboard lead to difficult time.
Suggestion: think about non qwerty keyboards!
What I usually do to get inputs:
key_var = keyboard_check_pressed(ord("A")) or keyboard_check_pressed(ord("Q"))
Or simply use arrow keys over wasd.
May I ask you what kind of system you run the game on? I'm curious, as my own computer is fairly outdated, I'd like to know if it's due to your CPU, or another factor. Game maker has the problem of running games in a single loop, logic and graphics, so if I were to go bellow 60fps it would be for everybody :(
Thanks in advance!
I think the obscure interface isn't great, I've been working on a post compo version of the game since the end of the LD and I've addressed the issue with a roll-over glow. Seeing people live getting trouble understanding you have to click on them was an eye opener.
Last level was made more friendly and finished. I added a new final level, and it's still hard. The game is probably to hard overall, but I'm willing to call it completed. Just need some background arts and sounds, and the final version will be completed! Lots of tweak were made, the game is more fair now, hitting a wall is not immediate game over, and you have to press R to restart a room, no overwhelming spiral of instant death when you begin. I'll post a link to the final version for those interested in seeing the evolution.
I will have time to play and rates games now!
Gravity and jumps are really weird, but it's funny! The magic hat + simple moustache combo was a bit overpowered. Good entry!
Found 4 items but I killed a lot of villagers :p
Funny little game! Keep up!
Nice entry! Kept falling on holes while pushing block though.
I think I broke the game, my second ship was spiting a bullet PER FRAME and I suddenly was overrun by at least 200 aliens! Fun times.
A really great entry. Pixel art is excellent, gameplay fun, sound is great. What more to ask?
21700.
I must have killed as much villager as I freed, I kept killing those poor bastard while destroying cages :p
Awesome plot 10/10.
Not bad, but I faced a problems. I remapped controls, because AZERTY and you apparently mapped the facing and animation separately from the moving inputs. I can moonwalk!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the sprites, as usual I spend a huge chunk of my time doing those. And as usual, level design is the last thing I do, so the cheap tall grass raptor is what I end up doing after to few sleep. Fun fact, I revisited the whole game minutes ago... That raptor got me too.
THAT cheap.
