Great game felt like you’re fighting mogs in a Minecraft FPS. Like the clicking SFX from the shop keeper!
https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-jam-2022/rate/1550748
Yeah, when i heared that sound the first time, i thought of minecraft too.
SFX where all a capella, glad you liked them! :D
quite impressive surroundings, super clean movement and a shop keeper to die for. and did I actually smell some random elements in your levels? whuuuuut?
unfortunately, no keys for me either. thought i was going mad for a minute there. or was that the intention all along?
Thanks for your kind words! Yes, we have nearly 10 levels, which will be loaded in randomly.
Since we never had any key-related issues while playtesting (even up to stage 70), could you check if:
A: The last enemy in the stage drops gold,
B: If you kill the laste enemy by sword, you may have already picked the key up at the moment it has spawned (you can see if you have the key via the UI in the top left corner).
Sorry for the problems tho. :(
both times the last enemy was kinda stuck in the dark entry area i think. i couldn't really see them in the dark, only a red glow...?!
The red glow is to see the last enemy through walls so you don't have to search for them when they are not near you.
I will check if there are collision issues at the Entrance/Exit areas. Thank you for your input!
Wow, very nicely presented! I struggled to understand how to get gold and what to do when I ran out of crossbow ammo so I didn't get too far. But visually very nice and good job on the submission! 😎
You can use the special skill from the crossbow to shoot without needing arrows. And you can buy them in the Shop.
Gold and EXP drops are scaled to the level, so at the beginning you get less than in stage 10 for example.
Thanks for playing! :)
grind like you're in hell
oh... you are in hell... \^-_-^/
Hell yeah
Fun little roguelite in service of our mighty bongo overlords! The sound effects are really nice (miaaauuu?) and a fun surprise at the beginning considering the surprisingly dark atmosphere for it's memey inhabitants. The enemies are a little difficult to differentiate in the dark atmosphere though and I soon just saw them as characterless blobs (and ghosts) sadly. Also while the change in scenery per arena is nice the shops (outside of a certain gathering) become very repetitive very soon and it doesn't help that for a while I cannot purchase anything thanks to the steep economy. While I only made it to stage 17 and only just unlocked the first sword upgrade it was nice to see that it actually changes visually, too bad you only see it partly (only the blade really) in this narrow FOV while it hides behind the health bar in the middle of the screen. Overall fun game jam game though!
Hmm I'm not sure what I did wrong but I got 3 times stuck on stage 2. Couldn't find a key to progress forward.
But the sound and visuals are great! it all feels really good, just wish I could play it a little further :)
Mhmm the key should spawn at the last enemy.
I am sorry to hear that you couldn't get further. :(
Ah yes, but the last enemy spawns behind a locked door which requires a key.
Oh..may you tell me if it was a ice-level or a dungeon? ^^
I will check the spawnpoints.
I did them both, not sure if it's just my fault? maybe I missed something?
Welp, this game woke me up.
I played for a good while to see if the gold gathering got faster, but ended up dying before I could buy anything with it. Now I'm wondering if I could've used the money after death.. Oh well, great game jam game, thanks for the experience!
Hi Bodyburger!
Thank you for playing!
Glad to hear that you liked our game! :)
The progress you make with health and strength upgrades will be saved.
Sword and Crossbow Upgrades will be lost, but give great advantages when bought.
Some of my thoughs
At one point I was running around with 1 hp, that was fun :D. It's just my take, but I think the shop prices are a bit steep. Keep working on it!
Hi! Thanks for playing!
We are happy to hear you had some fun! :)
Yeah the trigger Volumes were a mistake at the final build for the Gamejam :D
We will deploy a hotfix later this day.
I will write the controls on the page...thats a good idea. Thanks!
Shop prices and also Enemy Levels and Gold drop will need some time to get balanced right i guess. ^^
Hi, I only found art assets in your source. Where are the scripts?
There should be a ZIP-File with the UE4 Project. (DeathEXE.zip)
