Great job. Short and simple. The bow felt very rewarding especially when you made a combo shot. Good game :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Very fun little game! 

I especially loved the feeling of the shooting mecanic. It feels so good to land an arrow at full speed while at a great distance or on the verge of getting caught :)

A small remark : since it's necessary to use a certain number of arrows to pass to the next level, it would be nice to have a button that automatically restarts the level: I found my self just trying to suicide myself asap once I missed a few shots.

The artistic direction is lovely and works very well!

Cheers and congrats on the game!

Developer

Thank you! I agree about the reset button, that will be easy to add in and I think it will make it all much smoother. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Damn this one is pretty fun

Developer

Haha thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it

Submitted

The walking animation is really funny. I think with more time for polishing, this game will be great!

Developer(+1)

I appreciate it! I’m excited to work on this a little more and see what comes of it. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Your welcome! Would be great if you try mine too (if you haven't), Thanks :)

Developer

Absolutely! I’ll give it a try

Submitted

The visuals are great! i love the minimalistic design. My concern is the enviroments are a bit too boring. Adding ambience sound or a low volume enviroment music would be nice! After playing 4 levels the game feel a bit repetitive. i suggest you to add a powerups foreach levels!

Developer

I appreciate the feedback, and I agree. I think some background environment noise would have gone a long way. Thanks for playing, I'm glad to hear you got to all 4 levels!

Definitely love the opportunities to hit multiple  enemies at once. This is definitely the shining factor of your game. Id love to see more out of this mechanic. Itd be so cool if you could ricochet your arrow off of a mirror or something then you get a collateral. Ouuu baby lots of potential here. Great stuff!

Developer(+1)

Oh that's a way cool idea, I'll look into that! I'm glad to hear you had a good time, thanks for playing!

Sweet game! Oddly satisfying when my arrow hit multiple enemies at once. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! I’m glad to hear that mechanic turned out the way I hoped. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

This was a solid, well-executed game. The art style is visually consistent and memorable in its simplicity. The stealth/sight cones mechanic is tried-and-true, and combining that with extremely limited ammo forces the stealthy and tactical playstyle. I sometimes felt the "catch" radius around a guard was a little large, but it didn't really take me out of the experience at all. Great submission!

Developer

Thanks a ton! I appreciate hearing that you enjoyed the game. Thanks for your feedback as well!

Submitted

Really like the art and the game mechanic of having limited ammo to finish the level. I'd add a restart button to quickly start over if you went over the limit. Also, the enemies seem to just swarm right over the newest dead body which kind of makes them easy targets, maybe giving them a bigger search cone when they notice a dead guy would force the player to run away from the scene and be sneaky again. Other than that great work! Keep it up! 

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I think a restart button would definitely be helpful, and the AI could definitely use some work haha, thanks so much for your feedback!

Submitted

nice!

Developer

I appreciate it!

Submitted

Good balance of charge up time to not being caught! The gameplay loop would be much quicker if you failed the player as soon as they used up their arrow amount, or treated it more like golf with an aggregate score at the end. I still really loved it overall.

Developer

Those will be cool things to add on, thanks for playing!

Submitted

Great game! The gameplay is interesting and sometimes challenging, I like it! Hope to see the game grow, with some improvements it would be amazing. Good job, keep it up!

Developer

Thanks for your input! I had a good time making it, I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Great mechanics and the art! It was quite challenging for me but I like it. By the way, during the game, I remembered some games where are Hide and Seek concepts ;)

Good job!

Please check my game as well ;)

Developer

Thank you for playing! I appreciate the feedback!

Submitted

i like it. its simple and yet still entertaining. i wish there was a button to restart because if i accidentally shoot an arrow or miss, i have no way of beating the level. also the esc button exits the game. hopefully you'll implement more features to make this game more fleshed out. hope to see this game grow

Developer

That’s a good idea! I appreciate the feedback and hope to keep growing this game. Thanks!

Submitted

no mac version here, only windows. I will play your game when I have access to a windows computer in a few days.

In the meantime, I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)

Developer

Yeah I’ll look into that, sorry it’s not working!

Submitted
