Visually, this game looks awesome! I do wonder why there are barrels and chests around on the level but you can't seem to break or interact with them. I also kinda wish by default the game's music (while nicely made) didn't have such a loud volume over the SFX, I almost thought there weren't any at all! Fun game nonetheless though!

Game is good and stylish albeit a bit too easy, bosses can be ignored and die to melee spam with no punishment
also some boss attacks lack weight to them, such as the first boss dig attack.
it gets a lot of things right, just lacks a bit of refinement

Damn I loveeeed the music of this game, just from the start, what an amazing soundtrack congrats! :D It reminded me a lot to from software music and it was exquisite! I liked the game, and the concept was neat! However I managed to beat it pretty easily spamming the mele attack, it was the easiest way to finish it and it was pretty fast. It was a great experience tho and the art its amazing too! Congrats! <3

The art style is really charming.I think the SFX need to be turned up, they're hard to hear over the music. The music could do with some variance as well.
I like the theme, with some development and polish, and I think some work done on the combat, this could be a really great game!

Nice work! (I guess...?)

Visually it's great! (but I can't say so for the gameplay)

Idk is it a bug but the yellow bar decrease when you used any attack excluding the basic attack, but when the yellow bar run out, you can't use only that laser/flamethrower attack but can still use everything else so it's kind of confusing what does it's purpose.

Next is maybe it's just me but the charging attack are too slow especially when the range isn't that great anyway and most of the enemy constantly moving so it's actually hard to hit them unless when they're idling which is happened after attack but they will immediately executing next attack so it's gamble unless they happened to be idling near the players.

Basic attack, gear throwing, and everything else like the boss difficulty are seems fine tho, that's all I can say.

If I said something wrong or missed something, let me know.

This game is beautiful. The amount of polish on the art, sound effects and UI is all amazing. The bosses are all pretty well designed as well. I wish that this game allowed you to restart from the boss you died on instead of having to replay the whole game, but nonetheless I had a lot of fun with this entry. Great job!

Really lovely game. I am not even a fan of pixel games, but this was really good. Especially loved the music, absolutely gorgeous. Keep it up!

The game is very beautiful, I liked the graphics, it's stunning. I loved it, congratulations!

I like the visuals a lot, its like classic RPG well made, all within the jam time, its very impressive. I like also the music, its so fitting, the mechanics feel fair and also how we can change attack type is a great idea to implement this way, I think maybe boss could be more aggresive, but its personal liking of me. I rate graphics, control, fun and music the most, but all is great really, also, if you have some time, please rate my game too, thanks!!!

First off the art style and colour is really cool and made the game stand out to me before I even played it. The bosses all felt very well made and fair and the lore added was a really nice touch. I did find that I could beat all off the bosses by just running against them and spamming the melee attack so it might be worth nerfing that strategy but that is my only suggestion really, I played the game through again to make use of all the attacks too so I got the full experience and it was great!

Pretty game, not so pretty balancing, this world is just screaming metroidvania ngl. Fine enough experience, had some fun, loved the aesthetics. Melee was really busted and didn't really feel like there was much spinning going on, but otherwise pretty solid entry. Good job everyone, and great job artists. lol

Nice little game, Interesting world and concept going around, love the steampunk design defined with a great pixel art, also the powers you have are very helpful, a solid experience, the only problem I got it was with the ballerina, every time she shoot her beams it lagged the game to a crawl.

Very nice art you have here! I find the melee attack is kind of overpowered, and lets you just stand still while dealing damage faster than you take it. The first boss used the dialogue of the last boss for me. Bug?

Developer

It was misplaced, but it was too close to the deadline so we had to leave it in. If you're curious, the dialogue we wrote for the first boss is:

Line 1: Un!t detectEd 0ut of @llignMent.

Line 2: Rec@ll!braTing w0rkshop prOt0cols.

Line 3: DefEct!ve $ystems mu$t be rEcycled @nd rEturned to $tati0n for rePr0ces$ing.

He was supposed to be a neat freak character who glitches out at the sight of chaos, hence the special characters mixed into his dialogue.

nice theme and controls, but little bit hard to hit boss with vert\horizontal attacks

Very impressive art style and a keen eye for details, oh and I love the music, very fitting! Cool boss design even though I didnt manage to kill the Robot Boss as I had trouble hitting him with the range attacks. I had some success with melee but as hes moving a lot, I couldn’t spank him in time - I’ll have to give it another shot tho.

I would loved to have some visual or sound feedback for hitting him or get hit.

But overall a nice game and very cool graphics! A Job well done!

This game is impressive! It's so polished it's practically a complete game. Congrats on the submission and on your take on the theme

Be careful when choosing the colors of the character because sometimes it can be confused with the background. The boss fight was a lot of fun and the game feels great. I congratulate you for the great game you have made.  ❤🌻
