I really like the mood in this game, the athmosphere with the sorrow music really fits. Controls are smooth and fluid in my opinon and I enjoy playing the game. For the jam, as other have pointed out, the theme isn't really fulfilled, but still a nice game.
Really awesome game! As everyone else, the voice overs where really great. Tricky to control att first, but when You get the hang of it it really works pretty good.
Alla in all - An awesome little gem!
@quinn-patrick Thanks for the feedback. I actually started out using AddForce, but (no doubt mainly due to my inabaility) I could not get the control as snappy and precise as I wanted to for this game so due to the time constraint I went for this solution instead. Will look into this further with more time :)
@candlesan Thank you for the feedback. The maze generation was pretty quickly done actually, just had to make sure no "impossible mazes" was created. :)
@fifut I planned on showing the time, but in the end didn't since the maze is randomly generated the time has no real value in a "high score" sense. But yea, it might have been nice anyway. Next time :)
@benjamin-halko Thanks! The death animation felt just in line with the rest of the style :)
@psytron One "easy" way of having some variation and I could cut down time on level design :)
@ramil-dev and @ubershmekel You can't beat the game, only delay the inevitable ;) The coins keep spawning so they won't run out. I was thinking of keeping the time as a score, but since every maze (sort of) is unique, I didn't prioritize that and as my 48 hours ran out, I didn't bother.
I will eventually update the game and fix:
- The clones being better at following the players path; if they stray away from the path too much they get stuck and just stay there.
- An exit to next level in one form or another, for instance after collecting X number of coins
- More challenges (animated spikes, trapdoors and other enemies) and power ups like speed-up, headlight and so on.
- A score system
- Adjust the camera and controls (adding mouse support for turning for instance)
Now, if I only had more time...
Really nice and moody game. The dashjump is used in a really good way and not just a gimmick, and the gun mechanics also set things apart from the normal point-and-shoot action.
Really good work on the gfx and music as well, the in game music reminds a bit about Jean-Michel Jarre, and that is not a small feat!
Keep up the good work!
Absolutely fantastic game - Brilliant gfx and the music is awesome. Controls are a breeze and I really like the camera movement. All in all probably the most polished game I've seen in this Dare so far! Great work!
It definately kept me interested up to the end, so all good there. Of course a few more game elements would have made it even more fun but still - I enjoyed, something to build upon I think.
This one really awesome game! Feels very polished and slick. As far as I got, everything looked and played smooth.
Top notch entry to say the least, hat off!
I liked the idea and the way it was performed. MAde me curious and wanted to find out what to do and to finish the game. Innovative and thought provoking!
Very amusing game, really likes this. Direct and to the point, nothing to think about, really?
I love this game - the simple idea is just what I like. IMHO the theme is implemented perfectly. Only complaint is the camera not keeping up with the speed at times. Also I might be missing something but the smaller background "dots" sometimes disappear in somw "zones" making me feel a bit disoriented - might be som intention I just didn't understand?
Oh, and the music is really fitting the game.
All in all a great concept and very nicely implemented!
Nice little game, athmospheric and cute graphics. I don't agree with others about the controls - I think they work pretty good.
Kudos for a very nicely done game with lots of scary feeling. Great gfx, nice music and a very good game, esp. considering You did it in 24 hours!
Wow! Great concept and highly playable. And fun! Only wish it was an optional faster way to rotate the camera.
Very well done!
