it seams fun, but the boss just become imortal

Developer

Yeah a couple people have been saying that.  It seems inconsistent, but I'm not certain what is causing it.  I presume this is the first boss?  Any details you can give (like did the hit animation stop playing or just the health bar stop updating or all of the above?)   I'm sorry to hear you ran into it.

the animation and health bar

Developer(+1)

Thanks!  That helps a ton!  Still have no idea why that is happening but it tells me what is failing at least.  

Submitted

happy to be helpful (= <3

Cool design of the location, character and bosses, I liked the attacks of the bosses, but I would like more convenient controls, for example, movement on regular WASD, actives in the form of a dash and the release of many projectiles could be left on Q and E, and normal shooting could be assigned to LMB

Developer(+1)

Thanks!  Yeah, you're not alone in that.  Definitely should have tested more with keyboard to make sure that felt well.  Or at the very least allowed you to map your controls to whatever you want.  Ah well, the more you know.  Thanks for playing!

I liked it! The bosses had a good range of different moves and I like the idea of switching out abilities after each boss. But I wish the keyboard controls were set up differently and I wish there were music/sounds to accompany the cool visuals. Good game overall! :)

Developer

Glad to hear!  Yeah...one of my to do list items for next time I do a jam is to allow the controls to be configured.  That and sound, though that always feels hard to get something that fits well.  Still glad to hear you enjoyed!

The Boss Pretty Awesome, I Only Played the "Wizard" which was pretty cool, Great Work Brother :)

Developer

Thank you kindly, glad you enjoyed!

Fun game! Visuals are on theme, but it could benefit from some audio for added entertainment. Also, noticed an issue with the boss collider blocking the player. Overall, great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!  Yeah the plan is to start building a larger collection of audio for game jams so I spend less time searching.  As for the boss collider, that's intentional...kind of (there are some issues I've discovered with it) in that you can't walk through the boss but you can dash through them.

I liked this because it had a very forgiving HP relationship. Good job on that.... 3.75/5

Developer(+1)

Thanks!  Glad it fell on that side of the HP curve!

Fun game, controls are a little awkward but I know how that feels, Good game overall, defeated 2 bosses.

Developer

We're you using a controller or keyboard?  Keyboard I totally feel that - I did most of my testing with controller and so which keys to use was a last minute idea.  Eventually I want to learn how to rebind keys.  Appreciate you taking a look!

Submitted

Very cute visuals just is there no audio?  I could not hear anythign haha 

Developer

Thanks!  And you are correct, there is no audio.  I didn't have time to search for/implement any unfortunately

Fun little game

Thanks!

Fullscreen button on web game would be very nice! Not sure if you can still click on the option it's in the itch panel !

Also I don't get it, is the boss supposed to be invincible at some point? Is seems that at times i just can't do damage to him ! Happened at half hp, then at 75% hp. There is no feedback for Invincibility whatsoever !

Developer

Good to know!  I honestly forgot about that.  I'll probably wait until after the jam is concluded just in case  but good to know for the future.

That...is really odd.  Outside of the brief duration when they flash white (and admittedly a bit longer for the Necromancer's skeleton minion -- just long enough for the hurt animation to play) they shouldn't be invincible ever.    Do you know what attack they were using / you were using if you don't mind me asking?

Creative boss fights, I like it! It's very fun when you get a hang of the controls.

Developer(+1)

Thank you!  Yeah...originally I was going to have a mini tutorial level where you can practice a bit but that ended up getting scrapped due to time.  Glad you enjoyed!
