Just made my let’s play on your game as a regular player (so it’s without voice comments). I hope it will be useful for you to see how fresh players started your game for the first time :) I’ll provide text comments later, probably after finishing the videos for other projects :)
Thanks for giving the game a try ! The video is super helpful even without voice/comments, just seeing where a player struggles or has problems finding the right direction is great stuff. I apologise for the difficulty of the game :p
Yeah its difficulty was almost heartbreaking, because I was eager to find more of its super-cute and beautiful content… and couldn’t do this due to my very low platformer skills :) Never tried so hard in any platformer before, but the result is there - I made less than 3 screens and this cackling bird guy just made me drop :D
Yup, seeing people struggle makes me think i need some kind of easier mode, just not sure how to make it easier in a fun way. Yeah that bird at the start can be quite mean :p
Love the art style, love the design overall, just wish the keyboard key design can be tuned a bit to fit average game players habit, it was really hard to do maneuver with the default assigned keys, I will need to try it with modified keys later. XD
A little more BGM would be great too in case someone is stuck somewhere... for a long time, love the overall sound design.
The challenging level is REALLY high, I would compare this to "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy" it's one of those games that can send you flying right back where you started and destroy your morale but if you overcome it fill you with a lot of sense of achievement. Overall very tight game, just wish there's a "humiliating" way to climb to the top and beat it lol.
Here's my struggle trying this game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1465349488
Hey thanks for trying the game and giving such great feedback :) ! The 'humiliating' way to climb is to use the assisted mode :) In the options menu you can change all controls for keyboard/gamepad, unless that was bugged or something
Ohhh I see! Yeah I tried assist mode a bit but didn't quite thoroughly find out what it's about. I introduced your game to a few vtubers and best wishes. :)
Hmm do you think i need to add a better explaination of what the different modes do ? Thanks for the intro to the vtubers !
I love the art style of the game! It's also fun too!
