I had the same bug where some enemies moved in real-time, but it wasn't too bad. Other than that, the game is amazing! I love the art style particularly, simple but its really cool! I think it could've used some music tho also
Wow, impressive amount of content for such a short amount of time! I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, but playing the 64bit version on Windows, some of the enemies moved only when I moved, turn-based, others moved in real-time?
If this was intended and not a bug...The mix of both turn-based and Real-time might be interesting, like Nova-111 does it, but then which enemies are turn based and which are real-time should be differentiated clearly and communicated well to the player I think. Here it felt unfair when I expected a type of enemy to have similar behaviour as one I encountered before, and they ended up acting totally erratically instead.
Still, the art style is full of nostalgia and you've got a pretty decent retro roguelike going, well done!
You managed to make a pretty complete roguelike with a pleasing art style in a short time. Nice.
A fun little game! It vibrated with a lot of nostalgia :D
I really like the turn-based movement and gameplay that were quite straight-forward.
The game can be a bit hard since enemies chase you between screens, but I had a blast!
Cheers and congrats on the game :)
Really solid old school graphics enjoyed the concept. With some more balancing of the game, this has a lot of potentials to become a full game, if you decide to continue working on it.
Interesting game! I enjoyed the mechanics and the turn based nature of the game. I went for a similar "less health = more hp" route with my game. I'm usually not a big fan of turn based games, but this one was really fun for me. I enjoyed the old school graphics and the simple sound design.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest modifying the random generation of the maps. Level 2 was super long for me, level 3 and 4 then both had me walk into one room off the spawn then into one other room to leave without fighting any enemies. The game also crashed when I reached the shop screen. I also took some cheap hits in doorways when I didn't realize an enemy was coming through, some sort of indicator one is coming or just not having them spawn like that if the room they're coming from is unexplored could help a lot. Those changes plus some music would make a phenomenal game.
Check out my game if you get a chance!
Awesome game! I really liked the artstyle and gameplay, even if I was a bit confused as to how combat works. Nice Job!
The game is pretty fun! I really enjoy this type of combat (enemies move only when you do) and its simplicity.
Its a simple, but fun to play roguelike. I enjoyed playing it quite a bit. The simple art style was very well done.
Really nice pixel art that's clear and concise! The game reminds me a lot of crypt of the necrodancer. I think it could do with some music like in that game, but other than that this is quite good!
