Addictive concept I think it has potential on metroidvania genre <3

Developer

Thank you! I was thinking about applying it to metroidvania but the whole idea of backtracking doesn't work out when you have most of you level separated with the separator gun. I could reset the room but then again it doesn't play nicely with the idea of having to kill all the viruses. In some other game, maybe.

Perhaps there are levels that get flooded a lot or require walls to be destroyed, interacting with different colors, or having rays bouncing off blocks. I'm just throwing thoughts out of my head maybe you'll catch something ;)

Thank you!

I know this game. I've saw the video on discord. Really nice and polished game. Prop to the artist and dev. 

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

Really nice game. Audio was a good fit for the game and it was a fun mechanic for a puzzle metroid syle game.  I would have loved to have Erica a bit larger or the camera zoomed in a little more and it'd have been nice to have a little more control over her jump. But great work.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! I actually have a bug in the double jump code, at the moment it's two times lower than it should be. Will definitely work on camera scale and sprite scales when releasing it as a full game.

Submitted(+1)

Look forward to see what it looks like when you do! Good luck

The game is fun and innovative! However, it lacks of falling animation, which makes falling feel dull

Developer(+1)

Right. We needed an extra day to polish things up, unfortunately the falling animation didn't make it...

Submitted(+1)

hmm maybe it is a bug not sure. was told to make a staircase with separator but can't stand on the created blocks. Looked great 

Developer(+1)

Yeah, the separator gun is a bit hard to get used to at first. You have to press X three times for the blocks to become platforms. Pressing X for the first time starts drawing, second time stops drawing, now you have to stand away from the blocks, and finally pressing X the third time will make the blocks solid.

Finally got to play. It's very cool. It's like Bomberman combined with Dr. Mario and wrapped up as a platformer.  With more time to work out the bugs, it will be a great game.

Developer

Thank you! I sure hope to release it as a full game.

A good idea well mastered, the graphic result is very nice too good job

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

I really liked the separation mechanic. At first, I was confused, but once I realized how it worked, it was very fun.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

I love this! It's fun and so unique. I was a bit confused with the encapsulating thing first (I often skip over instructions and just jump in) but when I got used to it, i really liked it! Great game.

Thank you!

wow nice theme good art and sound fun to play.Cheers

Developer

Thank you!

Amazing graphics! I love the strong Metroid vibe and this is very well polished. 

I had some trouble with the separator gun and had to restart the whole level a lot, and in the end didn't see much of the game :(  From  a technical standpoint, this is impressive hough!

Developer

Thank you! Yes, Metroids are some of my favorite games. Have you watched the video gameplay? You can also press UP+R to skip a level and UP+L to restore life.

Submitted(+1)

Erica is awesome...

Feeling some Metroid vibes here...

Innovative gameplay and quite a polished game...

Nice work! <3

Thank you! Yes, Metroid games are one of my favorites.

Oh no! It seems to be stuck when loading (on Itch and Iluo) - none of the standard methods of refreshing seem to work either :'( 

I'm going to refrain from voting for now and try again later, but I wanted to let you know. I know from what you put on Discord that this is a good game. 

Developer

Hm, what browser are you using? I know it doesn't like Safari much and some of the other less popular browsers. Chrome and Firefox seem to work fine. Can you try one of them?

Submitted

Uh oh! That will be worth looking into. In the US, over 30% of desktop users are on Mac & Safari is the second most used browser.

I’ll download firefox & try later though. 

Developer

I am on a Mac with Safari myself... I've noticed a long time ago that Safari doesn't handle many web games well. Surprisingly it's my main browser because Chrome is too much of a hog.

Wow, I was accompanying the development of the game through discord, and I am very impressed with the final result! Definitely deserves to be in the top games of this jam! Congratulations for this very solid game, I love it!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the kind words!
