Good Movement feels snappy

Developer

Thank you!

Nice platformer, like the use of theme, will be nice some upgrades, and for me is a little to fast the movement.

Developer

Thanks so much for the review

Lots of promise with this game. The beginning town scene gives you the impression there is a world to explore! Some good pixel art, but it would be nice if the pixel sizes matched for consistency. I also noticed you answered no to the second question about creating all the assets and code. What parts did you make out of interest?

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for the review.

We made most of the sprites, music and pretty much all the code from scratch

Nice game!

Developer

Thanks you!

I like that dying is an important part of the game, it fits the theme nicely :) I like the movement. Cool thing would be maybe an hp bar for the monsters, especially bosses. Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you so much for the thorough review!

Pretty cool take on the theme.  Had a lot of fun with this one.  Small feedback, a little more feedback when attacking would have gone a long way.  Was hard to tell if I was hitting the enemies or not.  Still a pretty good game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for the review, unfortunately I didn't immediately think of giving feedback for each attack, for the next games I will certainly take it into account

I love that dying means we return as another character some time later! A great little touch than just re-spawning. I also like the level layout, linear but with plenty of platforming to keep me on my toes. The only thing i was missing was some hit feedback/ nockback on myself and enemies so that I knew when I was hit or who I hit. 

A great submission! Well done <3

Really cool game, I like how things change after each death. The animations were great as well. One problem for me was I had no idea whether or not I was doing damage to anything (unless it vanished) kinda made it hard to fight the boss.

Thank you so much for the review!

Very good game! Let me tell you, I was not expecting a story from a game made in a week. Clever use of assets and I was also impressed how the village changes over time to reflect the fact that there are less people in the village. I also assume there are multiple endings depending on if you get to the end or not. Nicely done!

Developer

Thanks so much for the thorough review, there are actually different endings depending on the number of deaths you get in the game.

Wow! That's really impressive. I got the everyone dies ending.

That was pretty funny. Agreed with others that hit boxes are very hard to work out. Couldn't make sense of the section after jumping down at the end of the forest stage, where everything was really big, was that a boss?

Developer

Thanks a lot for the review, actually the hitboxes need to be improved

Submitted(+1)

Cool game and nice idea. I laughed when I was reading the dialouges. I did't expect this many characters :o. Check out my game too!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the review, we focused a lot on creating the characters, maybe we even went too far haha.

I will definitely check out your game

I like the concept of this game. One significant drawback is hitboxes (they are wierd)

Developer

Thank you very much for the review, in fact with the time left it would have been good to review the hitboxes
