A little quirky, but fun! For some reason, the explosion repeats on death, which is a little weird, but minor. The game could do a lot with a little audio, for the explosion, or for music, but the art is great!
Great fun! My only gripe is that there's no button to join the game you made, gotta click your own link. Aesthetic is nice, old-webby.
Written Review: Great! Graphics look nice, sound effects are nice and whimsical, overall mechanic is fun. Only gripes are the music being loud, and just how dark it is. Maybe the lanterns could light more? Great job!
Cool! Fun to see a fellow Unreal dev. Some ideas: Fast forward intro text? Change AA to FXAA? Disable SteamVR and Oculus plugins; they start when I start the app and cannot be shut down Draw crosshair at the screen's true center and use a raycast/line trace to change the angle of projectiles? Other than that, good job man! Sounds, music, and models are all good for the 48 hour period.
@jack-woodcock The itch.io links don't work, update them?
It works, thanks!
Written Review: Fun to look at, not so much to play. Simple, but too slow and repetitive to get a higher score. Unlockable skins are cool, and it controls fine, but sluggishly.
Web build would be cool, but UE4 doesn't support it officially anymore.
Written review: 4/5 stars! Given the time constraint, excellent. Although the game feels hard to control, it is pulled up by the great art and backgrounds, visuals, and roguelike mechanics. Fun death screen messages too.
Constructive criticism: don't quiet the music for SFX, bind attack to the keyboard, and make the jump shorter. It felt unnecessary in a game where all you do is go down.
TL;DR: better than my game lol
Fun! Collision on the boomerang is a little iffy, same with the acceleration, but the plot is funny! Didn't reach the end, if there is one, because I make games, not play them. AKA I suck.
