good game
First, some suggestions. 1) Make the collision boxes of the everything a little smaller than the actual sprite, and make the timing a little less tight, so that when the player gets hit, they don't look like the got cheated. 2) When making sprites for your game, make your character at the scale you like, and then while making the other assets, keep the player in the same file for comparison. That way, your pixel art won't be at different scales.
Now, some praise. Congrats on making a complete game in a week! Your content felt just the right length. Your difficulty curve was well done, and even though it was a little difficult, the levels were nice and short, so I didn't have to start a huge section over again. You did a great job introducing mechanics 1 at a time. And the boss fight at the end was a great surprise.
The game is a bit too difficult, in that the hitboxes require very precise movement that is a tad bit too unforgiving. I do really like the timed explosions with the warnings though, it is a really cool addition.
Good hard game.
A tough game, but an interesting one. The graphics are great.
Too hard to play or may be I am just a noob Idk.
World's Hardest Game vibes. Just gotta fix the collision but other than that, pretty fun.
Nice game but it have some buggs
Level design was very good and the sprites were really cute. The one thing that bothered me however were that the hitboxes were so poorly accurate that it became frustrating very fast.
