I enjoyed the feeling of shooting here a lot, a like the little push back you get, how the charged shoot feels and the use of items like the ball bouncing into enemies and blocks. I do find the stealth aspect more lacking and kinda don't like how I have to manage ammo, mainly because I find the shooting the most fun part of this game. It's also very easy to just rush past enemies without needing to be stealthy at all.
With enemies remaining non-hostile the difficulty kind of goes out the window. However, I agree that the enemies are still pretty easy to just run past even when functioning properly. The choice to include limited ammo was to compliment the stealth aspect, which I feel could use some additional attention. But there certainly isn't a reason why both ways can't co-exist. Moving forward I'll try to include various play options in this type of game. I too enjoy the kickback from shooting, and I have way too many ideas for more items :) Thank you playing and providing feedback, much appreciated <3
Quite good, the aim system is hard to get used to, but it feels really good once you get used to it
Thank you! I'd love to play around with the controls a bit more and get them buttery smooth. Trying to strike a balance between simplicity and functionality has been a fun challenge. Thanks for playing!
At first I tried to fight off the enemies, but turns out sneaking around is much handier... cake get. Good job!
It is pretty fun to get the drop on them, I'd love to play around with those concepts some more. Congrats, please enjoy! And thank you so much for playing!
good game, I reach the party with the cakes !!!
Excellent! Thank you so much for playing. Please enjoy as much cake as you'd like, there's plenty <3
i had a little trouble picking some things up and shooting, but i got there in the end ;; i know the floating friends are a bug but it was fun trying to collect as many as i could, we're all sharing the cake <3 rough but fun!
Yeah the detection for some things is a bit off, and I'd still like to mess around with the controls some more. I may want to keep the friend feature next time around too :D Thank you so much for playing!
nice game, albeit a bit simple. i like being able to pick up and throw stuff around, but it is a little bit clunky. i'd also mention the mouse controls at least on the game page description. fun little game overall!
I totally forgot I had the mouse buttons mapped as well, thanks for the reminder! Yeah the controls are a bit off in some areas, not a problem moving forward. Thank you for playing!
So it turns out there's a bug that makes the enemies friendly shortly after an encounter. It's pretty fun running around with a swarm of pals, but not the intended function in this project. I tried a bunch of new things this time in terms of movement. Audio was mainly placeholders that never got swapped out. It's a bit rough to say the least XD
I got bugs in my jam, ewwwww
