I enjoyed that I could path my own route and take challenges on in my own way. It was a bit difficult but I got better and used less lead as I kept playing. In terms of feedback, I agree wholeheartedly with Rykuzu Studios' comment below.
Great job! Keep up the good work!
Awesome game! I love the ability to directly affect the game and build what I want! Great job!
This reminds me of a dr who (maybe?) game I used to play on the school computers but yeah it's a cool game. Could do with a bit of polishing and a restart button but overall it's fun
Great concept! Restart button would be beneficial for the game or like some sort of undo drawing ability. Adding more polish will make the game more user friendly. Do not get me wrong, the game is not hard to play, but to avoid confusion and trapping myself while trying to block bullets would be a bit annoying. This game has great potential.
Concept is great! i like it
Very cool and congrats on making this game with the amount of time you had. The concept is very cool and the fact that you got it working is very impressive. II also liked I could erase because I did end up making a mistake and locking myself up in a box. lol
Impressive effort!! I spammed the pencil to make instant platforms beneath me. Sure sped things up until my lead ended. Oh well. Nice game!!
This was awesome! I was super confused at first until I realized I could draw ramps. I never used the block button, I just used the pencil to draw a shield
For your first game jam, this sure was really creative and interesting! The graphics looked really nice and the controls and music was really good. A few things I would suggest though is to further explain the objectives of the game. I was throwing into the game not knowing fully what to do and although the arrows were a nice touch on where to go, I didn't know what to specifically do.
Also, I would suggest adding a restart button so players can restart the level if they mess up, which chances are, we might on our first try.
Lastly, the game does need polishing in a couple places such as feedback from enemy attacks and regaining our drawing in some way or an explanation on how to recover our drawing skills.
Other than that, amazing game entry and nice work on it!
Great idea. I experienced some bad menu scaling at start but after start game everything was fine. Keep it up!
Well done!
Cool concept. I don't know how the theme fits on this by the way.
But if you polish this game, it will be great. It has good potential.
Really cool idea and very good execution! Blocking bullets by drawing lines is a nice touch as well.
This game is awesome! The idea is brilliant and everything feel so polished. I had a blast playing this. Fantastic job!
cool game i like the idea of drawing lines
I've commented your game in this stream from 1:30:00 to 1:45:00
Not bad at all! Really good concept for the theme!
It's really fun, the mechanic is just really cool to interact with. I like that you can erase and block bullets too :D
Really neat game idea, Amazing job for your first game jam!
