My old laptop struggled a bit with the graphics. The environment is perfectly constructed and very detailed. I liked the complex setup system. But the camera's position will need to be changed in third-person view. Great work!

Submitted

The game feels really polished . Unfortunately, the graphics were from the standard assets and would have loved custom  graphics.Good game overall . Well done! 

Developer

Thanks for the review. The graphics are not standard assets, they are from SYNTY Studios from their "Polygon" series.

Submitted

oh yeah yeah yeah... I meant asset store

Developer

Oh ok, in that case you are right. Unfortunately I have to say I'm not talented in modeling and texturing :)

Submitted

Very ambitious, especially in the looks department. Fun to play. I like the difficulty spike making it more and more chaotic. Most critisisms I have have been mentioned before in other comments so i wont mention them again. One thing I found was that the sensitivity of looking around was really low. Good game overall.

Developer

Thank you for the review!

I know, i already write a patch. in this you can control the mouse sensitivitiy of the mouse with a slider....unfortunately i have to wait until the jam is over to upload it.

Submitted

Fun to play! Awesome Game, really liked it.

Its a Solid entry.

I hope you like my game too!

This was pretty fun! I like tower defense-like games and this was a good start with it. Good job!

Submitted

The game has a solid start, Gameplay was smooth and graphical style was nice and consistent.

Only things I made note of is that the enemies have sometimes hard time finding the path up, The weapon animation just flickers in front of you and sometimes the weapon clips with the camera a bit.

Developer

Thank you for the review. I know, my little skeletons are a little bit stupid to find their ways. 

One of the things that must be patched immediately after the jam.

Submitted

Well, skeletons don't have too much of brains anyways :D

Submitted

All in all a good ,but here are some points that you could improve.

-Shadows ,but I have the same problem

-the enemies often got stuck on there way to the dam

-The UI in mainmenu have a wierd scaling

-Also you could add some specialattacks or something like that to make your game more intersting.

Feel free to check out my game aswell :)

Developer

Thanks for the review. 

Wierd scaling? So far i have not reseived any bugs from it, can you send me a screenshot from it?

Special Attacks and a improved camera system are already in the works, unfortunately I ran out of time :)

Submitted

I think it is the normal scaling ,but for me the hole (ok this was bad) main menu doesn´t look that great.

Submitted

Very beautiful game, the gameplay is very solid, and i love the low poly style. The only thing is that the game is very heavy for "small computers" like mine, maybe it's a thing to consider for later games. But good job!

Developer(+1)

Oh really? Ok I need to improve this immediately with the graphic setting. Thank you for the review!

Submitted

Impressive game for a gamejam! Well done.

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Submitted

Really good game!

Though, in third person the camera might be too close to the player, and in first person the attack animation isn't very visible. Also it was a little hard to "aim" when reparing holes (this mostly applies to 3rd person)
I would have liked a bit more feedback when hitting enemies.

Developer

Thanks for the review. You are right, i will improve this systems after the jam, unfortunately i ran out of time after this week :)

Submitted

The game is very good looking. I was stunned by how many options I had, from character choice to environment settings! I was really missing some sound effects and music, this would've made the game even better and is very important!

Still, one of the best entries! :)

Developer(+1)

Sounds and Music are included, but i messed up the settings. They are really quiet :) 

I have to rework my music mixer after the jam ends.

Submitted

Ah, I see

Submitted

The environment is well made! Wish I could zoom out and in during the 3rd person mode though, apart from that, it's a pretty good game. Good work, enjoy the review/vote! :)

Submitted

whoaaa those environment and 3D feels so details, i love this game, and the gameplay fun too. Solid submission, great work guys :D

Developer

Thank you for the review! 

"Guys"... I am a solo fanatic Guy xD

Submitted

Nice game

Fun game!

Submitted (1 edit)

This is very good game! loved the 3d design and the environment. Also I liked the menus and the optional settings. seems like a little bit of ui polishing you'll have it feel very complete :)

Submitted

ouuuu dudee the game design is epiiic and the graphics too GJ <3 

Developer

Thank you for this kind words :D

Submitted (1 edit)

The concept is nice! I liked the hole patching mechanic. The gameplay is decent, though I wasn't quite sure when I'd hit an enemy and when I didn't. Sometimes the enemies died just by colliding with me, sometimes I'd have to hit them several times to connect. Music and graphics were good, but the audio was very quiet.

Developer(+1)

Thank you four your review. 


Hm...i going to look for that, i think in future Versions i rework the Camera und Fight system. 

Submitted

Great concept! The graphics are nice and the game play is very smooth. Its kind of difficult in TP though.

Developer

Thank you. I know TP is not my best work but thats the reason you can switch to FP :) 

Submitted

i like the game very mutch 

it was very funny to play

some gliches but not that bad

great work
