Things I liked:
-the movement felt nice and smooth
-learning the movement of the skeleton guards and dodging them felt thrilling and exciting - a cool player experience
Things to improve:
-sometimes the movement of the guards seemed to change which made the player experience not as enjoyable as I found myself thinking "Oh he will go down and I am safe" then he came up which was different than last time so it felt as though I was not making progress and I was losing and going back to the start not because of my own abilities, but because the game chose that instead which isn't fun
-Hitting a skeleton can trigger multiple sound clips to play, so sometimes on your way back to the start, I'll hit a different skeleton and the trigger plays although I was already caught and am going back to the start
-Needs more checkpoints if you are going to create a big map
-UI was basically off-screen so I have no clue what else was seen
Overall:
Really enjoyed this game! With some polish, this could turn into a fantastic game! You did a great job with this, super cool!
Nice game!! Good challenge, nice art and music! Enjoyed it a lot!!
Cool art and music! Like this game 👍
Hi man congratz on your game. :) The movement of the grim reaper was super smooth... My only suggestion that would make the game a little bit better in my opinion, is to make the levels a bit smaller.. And maybe add some diversity on different parts of the level. Like a candle or something like that, I got lost some times because I didnt remember if I already passed by a specific place.
Please play my game if you have the time and give me your honest feedback :)
Thank you for the suggestions. I love the idea of some visual elements scattered through to help show if you've been down a path before. That's a great idea!
I liked the graphics and the music gave it a really good ambiance. Those skeletons are so mean! As soon as I turn a corner there they are chasing me!
Nice game, good entry!
I like the theming and graphics! I kinda wish the maze was a bit more zoomed out so I could avoid the bone bois more effectively. Solid entry. Thanks for posting!
