The idea is good and good mechanics! Good job!
Fun, snappy game with cool mechanics that work great with the jam's theme! One thing I ran into at first was that I spent my 50 credits for a better gun before realizing I needed them for my first boss fight. Maybe there was a way to sell an upgrade back, but I couldn't figure out a way to progress forward. I started up a new game and was fine after that. Overall, very cool game!
Would appreciate it if you checked out my game :)
Will check your game out!
Interesting game! I enjoyed being able to play with so many stats before entering into a boss battle. It fits the theme very cleanly with gaining less if you go in with more.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest not having the shop available until at least one boss is defeated. First time playing I bought something and didn't have the funds to go into the boss battle.
A bug I found: If you are decrease a stat all the way until you have 0 then try to add some back, regardless of how much of a buffer you should have, you will still be shown as loosing money.
Overall, a really fun game!
thanks a lot! i realized the shop thing last day and i was really busy. thanks for the feedback!
Been following the progress since day 1. Really happy with the result! Hard but really addicting! Making the mouse invisible as to prevent clicking away from the screen could help a lot!
Visuals are nice, gameplay is very addicting, music and sounds are fine. Solid one!
Unfortunately not working on firefox
I find the left hand using the space bar to jump quite difficult when trying to control the mouse too. So I therefore had great difficulty playing this game. The less is more concept was really nice. I thought it was quite innovative to use the stats like that. Way up risk vs reward. Great job adding a shop too. There was actually quite a lot in here for a short Game Jam. Lastly I actually enjoyed the music. So much so I let it play while I played some other games, hehe.
Interesting a lot of players told me that! I thought it was the norm to play like that because I play all my games like that, Minecraft, Call of duty and such but ill maybe release a controller edition!
Nice game! The shooting and particles were good. Movement was sortof hard. Maybe mapping to a game controller could be better. The sound effects were a little piercing on the ears. I only beat the twins because I ran out of money to fight anything else and did not want to beat them over and over again. Maybe you could make it so there are 2 paths, one where you either go one by one in a specific order and another where you can use money to fight ahead and potentially win money. That way if you win you have a way to instantly fight a new boss but also have the option to jump around if you are good enough.
that sounds like a good idea! I understand where you’re coming from but I think the money issue gets much easier after reaching the second boss because you get more money from stronger bosses!
Very cool concept and nice game! I liked both the visuals and the music. At first I was a bit worried since I found the camera was offset so I lost a lot of vision when moving through the tutorial, but I did not find that as a problem when getting to the bosses.
It is a lot of cool content in a small package. Very well done!
yup I had no time for tutorial so it turned out to be a bit annoying!
I liked the progress of the game with upgrades you could buy. It was hard at first but when I played more I got comfortable with it. The wallsliding was a little bit weird for me and I always got rid of the sliding speed to get the bonus money. Overall a very good game and a lot of content for this limited time, congratz!
Really cool game and nice mechanics! I like the idea of making the battles harder to earn more money but I personally found it quite difficult even against the twins with normal settings
Very nice game!!!
The only little wierd thing are the controls. It's quite uncomfortable for me to use WASD and spacebar with one hand and mouse with the other. The problem was solved when I bought the autoaim!! XD
thats usually how most people play games, you could use arrow keys if you wanted
Great tutorial! The game is great but it could be simplified.
I Love the game. It's a bit slow but the visuals are nice.
I love the idea of betting on whether or not you'll win with any given settings!
good game. but i only beat the twins
Hey I actually really like this one. There is a lot of effort in this project.
My one issue is whatever that SFX you play when the character jumps. It annoyed me a bit.
Other than that, I liked its correlation with the theme.
I don't like anonymous voting so here is my rating.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot! and i didnt understand where the beep from jumping came from but thanks for the feedback!
This was a great game. I found that the simplistic art style suited the game very well and made it very aesthetically pleasing. I did feel like there was a steep learning curve, but all in all, it is a solid entry! Good Job
That was really fun to play, however I found the early (beating a boss the first time, with nothing bought, only the stats to change) pretty hard and I had to solve it by staying in a corner where the twins can't reach you. But once you start to be able to really play with many stats thanks to the upgrade, that' becomes really funny !
i realized that! but thanks for the feedback!
