Fun game with a lot going on, I really liked the little intro cutscene, but I was left a bit confused on how to enter the first level.
I liked the music and the intuitive gameplay, but felt the combat was a bit unfair/overly difficult and could just use some minor tweaks.
i liked music good job
That intro cutscene was a like a full trailer. Nice!
The pixel art is dope and the gameplay tweaks are good
Thanks!
Felt a little weird seeing a game after so cinematic exposition. Game was interesting, but some of the bosses attacks are too hard to dodge. Controls are intuitive, gameplay is good.
We worked really hard on that intro cutscene, I'm happy you liked it!
The second and third boss were a bit rushed because of lack of time so I just ended up putting the target signs to telegraph the attacks
Good cutscene and background story but an warning sign to tell the player that you need to get the lighting over the red circle would be beneficial. Because it took me some time to figure out how to open that door and should I need to heal continuously :-)
Thank you for the feedback!
Maybe I should have expanded on the intro dialogue to explain the lightning mechanic, glad you eventually managed to get that door open anyay!
It's really good :D
Thanks!
Super creative use of the theme, seeing this expanded into a puzzle-platformer would be super cool!
Thank you!
I planned to add full-game elements such as the ability to go back to older rooms, but there wasn't the time
Maybe after the jam ends I'll turn this into a larger game!
5 stars! ;)
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man that intro is EPIC! I could see myself putting more time into a game like this, I like the platform puzzle elements and the effects of the wheel. Having to get the lightning to hit the activation swtich is inspired. Graphically it reminded me of rotoscoped games like prince of persia, great work.
Thank you!!!!
We worked really hard on that cutscene, glad you liked it!
Brutal, very cool style, and clever use of the Spin theme!
Thank you!!!
Hope it wasn't too hard!
It was pretty hard, but took a few tries to get a feel of the controls and how things worked! :)
Cool neon graphics at story. Good idea how area is debuffed from wheel.
Thanks!
quiet creative and i really love the idea of it c:
Thank you!
