Well I really like the character and its animation, I like the game's sounds and music. now the issue is that I didn't play further because the character is blocked by one of the trees and I can't pass no matter how but good job D. Do  you mind tryng out my game and rate it according :)

I can't move, the character is stuck, but can jump and shoot, but can't attack or move left and right.
Do you have any advice on how to fix this?

A little story

This sounds serious. I know that there is a bug, where u cant kick and move at the same time. Could you please tell me, when or where all of this happened ? I can then reproduce and see what is possible to fix.

Right at the beginning, immediately after loading.
Maybe I missed something? In one game before, you had to press Z to start the game.
I decided to wait for your response in order to play and evaluate the game

Does this happen when you reload the game and try it for the second time? Normally the game does not start when pressing Z only when clicking "new game". Will run some tests and see if I can get to that state. Thanks for letting me know.

Nice small game. Dont know if I rescued any of this princesses :D

The only thing I had is, that sometimes when I die I can still run around, but cannot jump or fight.

Yeah, that pesky bug wandered in , when I squashed two others.  :/ aaaaand here goes another round of bugfixing

Thanks for playing and rating, m8. Appreciated !

The way of getting better is not to make no errors and bugs. Its the ability to recognize them faster and know how to fix them. Will help in other games :3

Capable little platformer. I got stuck on the spikes at the bottom. Also if you fire at the people who ask you to rescue them then they get a shuriken stuck in their face. If you could let the first one know I'm sorry. The second one deserved it :)

Thanks m8 ! There is a small spot at the bottom, underneath the platform, where you could get stuck , right ?  Oh, I will tell them that you are sorry, when they get a shuriken in their face. Your right, the second one deserves one she is not the nicest princess :).

Neat little game! Finsihed it in a moment, it was very hard to tell what I could jump on, and what I couldn't

Thats true, I used my "oil tileset" and the contrast to the background is really not that easy to spot. Thanks for pointing that out to me!

The attack options are impressive, but I encountered a bug that prevented me from jumping off the spikes after landing on them.

Hey Birnenlp, many thanks for playing the game and also reporting back the bugs ! 

Could you please elaborate a bit on  how to reproduce what prevented the jumping. So i can have a look at it.

Reply
Lazy4GamesSubmitted1 year ago(+1)

I tested it again and i only had the bug at one specific place: Only here i couldnt jump up again

Reply

Thanks m8, I could find the error. It was a wrong TileMap physics layer shape!

New version is up and running !
