very simple and very wide, it's hard to tell what's going on since everything is pretty small on the screen

the alien hitboxes are bigger than the aliens themselves so I found myself walking offscreen most of the time trying to avoid them

I see that this is your first game published to itch ever so 🎉 congratulations 🎉 !
(not to be rude but you might wanna research the topic of "Cameras And Viewports" in GameMaker's manual)

cheers

Yeah I have managed to set the hitboxes now and also the game being  wide was on purpose sorry about all of them and I have also tried on cameras and view ports as  well but I could not manage to but I am currently working on an update which I will release after the game jam 

Oh and ı will release a devlog on my yt:gradlex8

I was not expecting this game to be so wide. I think that with any game you should try to keep the aspect ratio to something that makes sense for monitors just because it took me a while to identify where on the screen I was and what I was supposed to collect. There was also a glitch where I would bump into the wall and a sound play a million times. Just keep at it since I read it was your first jam! It will only get better from here!

Hey thanks for everything as you said I am fixingq the ratio of the game and very soon there will be different dimensions and new entities and traps and I am working on fixing alo the bugs so thanks for the feedback and oh that sound playing was on purpose buddy.Soon  I will upload a devlog on yt:gradlex8

Not sure whether this is intentional or not, but the game window is stuck at an aspect ratio of about 6:1 (super, super wide). I also couldn't seem to retry after losing without closing the game and opening it again. I collected all of the potions and saw a yellow screen with some platforms. I wish that there was a bit more warning before losing the first time you play the game, because it's very difficult to understand what's going on. Also, I think I got caught by the transparent corners of the enemies' collision boxes, which was very frustrating. All that being said, I eventually I found a strategy that worked and managed to beat it.
Also, you might want to... rethink... the background noise.

Developer

First ofall not to insult you just wondering what did you rate the game and yeah sorry about all of them when working as only one person there were a lot of weird things in the game and yeah the game actually sucks but the game being  wide is on purpose and the background sound as well but yeah sorry about all of them this was my first ever game jam

Developer

Yeah ım frustrated by that one bug in the entity collision boxes as well ı just cant fix it but ı am currently updating the game and after the jam a detailed good game is going to be there

i saw your replies and just wanted to say this: I absolutely respect your game. Getting a game made and published in 48 hours is (for anyone) a challenge. Your game's got art, sound, and gameplay. I've participated in game jams where my submissions didn't even have all of those three. Your game does present an oppressive, alien, and kind of scary atmosphere. My comment was giving some honest feedback, and you can decide if what I've said is worth addressing or not. If you still want to, I think you should totally try to improve the game after the jam. 

Developer

Thank you so much man definetely goingg to update the game after the jam by the way lets communicate my mail:gradlex8@gmail.com
