Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • Each level is a brutal, tough-as-nails gauntlet which makes me want to throw my GBA through the window, but at the same time it's kind of addicting! Music and sound effects could've made a big difference. The hitboxes felt fair, and I was relieved to discover that the game saves your progress. Good work overall!
  • Impressive work for a 2 week project! I was surprised that the player character actually has a spherical hitbox! In some parts, I think the game could benefit from checkpoints.
  • The movement is too frustrating, the game feels unfair.
  • Nice entry! With more work it could become a fun game :) Some notes: - I guess the worst part about the game is that the levels are too long for not having lives or checkpoints. The camera sometimes doesn't let you anticipate enemies, going back to the start of the level because of that is quite frustrating. - I like that you've added things like doors and keys to make the game less linear. - There's a pause option! Tons of entries forgot about that xD - A bit of audio would have helped :)

The levels in this game are too long. I get that's it's a frustration game, but the time between attempting each challenge just emphasizes how tedious the movement is.
