Good show. This had me literally laughing out loud. Well deserved winner.
Great entry, loved the graphics style and music/sound complemented the game and graphics well. Only criticism was starting with a single health made it quite difficult to test through but it doesn't help when the player is 'challenged' like me :)
Loved this game. One of my favourite entries. Sometimes found it hard to find the delivery target.
Incredibly fun and had enough to keep my playing over and over.
Best entry I have played so far. Excellent effort for such a short time.
Graphics are the quality of a released game. Sound wasn't the best but in the time used they are still great.
I'd love to see this developed in to a full game. Well done
Reminds me of that Spin Dizzy game where you had to guide a ball round a maze. Like it! Quite addictive and has potential for further development
Would have liked to see some more variation on the hunters etc and maybe treat it like waves. Not a bad effort though.
Loved this beautifully simple game. Few glitches - swim left and up at the start to see four random fish, levels seem to pop in and you can't go back. Not so much of an issue but at first I wasn't sure what was happening.
Would have liked some way to skip intro given how many times I died lol
Spent way to much of my life on this... needs addiction warning
First off, the audio was so funny, loved it.
Gameplay was consistent and working well. My only criticism would be that reversing was a bit too sensitive.
I noticed a bug on the main screen where if you press ESC the game pauses and has strange effects. Pausing should probably only be available while in game.
Graphics are nicely polished and fit well with the game concept. Overall a decent entry so well done.
@charliecarlo - 'R' basically generated a new room and places the character in the middle again (or at least it should have!) I do intend on continuing this as a project after LD as I was enjoying it. Sadly I did just run out of time due to personal commitments.
@Frozen Ninja - Thanks this is just the sort of feedback I need so I can improve specific areas.
@stevenlr Yeah I hated the sound effects, the attempt at monster roar anyway, and wished I had removed them. I definitely plan to take all the feedback away and continue this as a project post LD. The shadows were a rush job, they need a lot of optimisation but I couldn't figure a way to get them working the way I wanted in the time I used.
Great game. Well polished and challenging yet fun to play
Nice concept but making it multiplayer alienates a lot of players wishing to play and rate. Sound quality seemed good although there was sadly no music. I quite liked the graphics style as well. Main criticism is forcing controller input on players. At minimum keyboard should be offered as well.
Sadface, I was really looking forward to playing this as it looks great and sounds right up my street. Sadly running the .jar did nothing.
Good effort for your first try.
Strange bug when I died, I seemed to bounce around randomly killing more people. Not sure if this was intended or not.
Simple but fun mechanics. Enjoyed playing it which at the end of the day is what makes a game. Fits the theme nicely as well. Few bugs in it though like upgrades listed at one price but available when I had less money and also some issue with firing when you hold the movement keys.
Nice concept and I like the style. Perhaps too difficult to get in to so maybe it would have been better to have it easier to play at the loss of some features? Just my opinion.
One the better entries in the event. Watched a lot of the development while I was working on my own entry.
Graphics are probably the entries best asset but overall the whole game is polished well and is nice to play.
Well done.
Not a bad effort. Couldn't get it running in Chrome but I think that was expected. Would have been nice to have a single player mode.
Oddly satisfying. Would have been nice to have more than one monster. Fun to play though. Good effort.
Liked this entry very much. Always difficult for multiplayer games to get good testing but the mechanics seem cool. Good effort.
Nice entry, and some nice game concepts in there. Only a few minor bugs which I think you have corrected. Graphics were the part which let the entry down mostly but still a good effort, well done.
Buggy in Chrome but Windows version worked well.
Love the graphics, very nicely done. Good game concept and seems to be well executed so well done.
For such a simple concept I really enjoyed playing this. Has a lot of potential for further development. Looks well polished, fits the theme and most of all is fun to play. Well done.
Firstly, well done for an entry of this quality at your age.
Interestingly weird game which I really enjoyed. Audio needed a bit of fine tuning to get sound levels right but were good none the less.
Nice narrative in the game and nice concept for the control mechanism.
Played well enough, loved the music. Walking felt a bit clunky and slightly more time on the graphics would have helped a lot. Overall good effort though. Maybe the only other thing would have been putting something in to skip text or speed it up.
Not bad for a first entry. Good ideas and everything seemed to work without issue. With some better graphics would be a good entry. Audio was good so well done with that.
Enjoyed playing this. Graphics and sound are both up to a good level of quality.
Only downside was lack of content but understandable in the time constraints. Would like to see it developed post LD
Good effort for a first time entry. Lots of positives in the game and a lot you can probably take away and improve on. The main problem I found was how difficult I found it to play. Remember, what seems blatantly obvious to you will be alien to everyone else.
Hope to see you in LD34
The lack of instructions make it hard to give the game a better rating as it is difficult to play or know if you are doing the right thing. Graphics style is nice, some music would have added to the game a lot I feel.
A lot of bugs in the game making it difficult to give a fair rating. Concept was OK but needed better graphics, sound etc.
Well done for your first attempt though. Hope you come back for LD34
Liked this very much. The graphics are nice and polished and the game itself plays well. Has a good 'feel' to the play.
Main downside is the audio.
Great entry though.
Seems like you managed to get a lot of feature in for such a short time so well done. Love the concept and graphically it is very pleasing. Took a while to get used to what I was supposed to do but then enjoyed it. Shame about the missing audio and I did have one crash http://pastebin.com/GjSu6nfY (log file for you)
Overall though very good effort
Very pretty game and nicely polished so well done for this in the time scale. Only let down by it being a bit repetitive but has potential for development post LD.
Well done.
Too many bugs to play properly. I guess the idea was good in concept though so nice effort.
Some of the platform mechanics didn't feel very smooth and were a little glitchy at times. Some nice mechanics though like the wall jumping.
Overall I liked the entry and the concept. Bit more polishing and would be very good.
Very nice, interesting idea and like the style. It works very well in how you have implemented it.
Good effort.
Graphics were a bit basic but the idea was nice and fitted the concept. Controlled well and has potential to be developed further in to a better game. I had issues where for long periods I could not find any cowboys which was frustrating. Overall nice effort.
Very fun to play, found myself spending too much time on this entry because it was so much fun lol.
My first thought was that the graphics weren't great but the more I played the more they kind of worked and seemed to complement the game.
Didn't come across any bugs while playing so appears to be fairly well polished.
Very good effort.
Really enjoyed this simply and relaxing game. Nicely polished and didn't encounter any bugs.
Good effort.
Really liked this entry. With a bit of polish it has potential to be a solid game. Would have benefited from a bit of balancing but for the time frame given this was a great effort.
