I did also a shakespeare game at the last gamejam :P
Funny to play, but I like more controls by me
Fun and silly. Good work! Wasn't expecting Shakespeare game when the jam started, but I'm happy I got one.
I like your Vampire Survivors inspired game filled with Shakespeare quotes! You did a really good job of creating similar mechanics in your own way, nicely done! Would love to see Shakespeare quotes as a reward tied to the upgrades you get, I think that might push this into being a more unique game.
Awesome idea!
Survived for 3:04 at level 8. The ink pens were brutal, haha. Expanding and leveling up my arsenal was addicting. Definitely, a fun mechanic to use for future projects. Ideally, I would like to move faster, but that in itself could be a temporary power up (or permanent). Nice job!
Congrats on completing the jam! Shakespeare quotes in a game jam - definitely a unique take! I liked that it was a very different take on a vampire survivors type game. Some sfx would be a great addition. :)
Time, oh how you betray me! ;) I'll do the things I wanted to do after the voting :)
Level 9 but couldn't hit 10 to save my life. Everything that was done for this jam was done really well. Left me wanting more!
I got to level 5 on my first try, seems pretty promising although the background could use some variation and a tutorial would be nice but just throwing the player in is also fun, pretty solid game. Does it end when the plays are over? Also I found the quill a bit overpowered for a first weapon but its fine.
Thanks! Currently set up to overwhelm at 20:00, but there is too much thrown at the player before then. I wanted 12 abilities (what was I thinking?) so may come back to this and have more 'group' attack abilities so you can feel more powerful. Ink blot is weak, for example.
This is a fun and offbeat take on Vampire Survivors. Apparently I'm not very good at it though; I only made it to Level 6 :-)
6 is good, I need to rebalance the start game for sure ;)
Good job on adapting the Vampire Survivors vibe here.
Loved the abilities!
this was fun to play :)
Good game, I liked the mechanics. :D
You're better than I am ;)
A little taste of Shakespeare Survivor :-D Nice idea overall, maybe adding health power ups to last longer and some VFX/SFX would be nice, but I enjoyed my runs!
Thanks, this went way over scope. I do hope to add VFX/SFX and more abilities/accessories later - didn't have time (do we ever?)
So true, we never do! That's why I like game jams by the way, at least we have to finish it for a given date :-)
Was fun to play, better than I expected from pictures :)
Game is fun to play, all parts fits well together
With some adjustments this could become a great game. I love the concept, but found it too difficult to play. Too many office tools chasing me and own movement too slow. Also, reading Hamlet while trying to avoid the office tools was just impossible.
Heyyy, I liked the story :D It was an honor to help shakespeare defeat some office tools. Reading Hamlet while playing was a bit tough but I think it is meant to be that way. :D Shakespeare lovers won't just ignore the lines. I had fun, good job.
Yep this is my sort of game.
Moving quicker would be good but I guess he is 400+ years old.
It was fun.
I love the fact that you are being chased by items, I'd love to see the ability to upgrade speed or just be faster in general. Love the game
Thanks! I planned way too much for this game and didn't have time for pickups, other than the xp gems :(
I feel your pain. I had planned more and didn't get to add it due to time restriction. I'd love to chat with ya on discord (ath0rus#0001)
