Your art style is very good buddy i liked it, music is good, game is hard for me, i tried a lot but its hard for me to hit the balls, even if i hit them they dont go in the direction that i want them to go, first boss fight is hard for me, but i liked all the bosses, love your game 8/10 from my side
I also request you to check my First Game Jam game also and give you honest opinion on that.
Thanks
Will do! thanks for the 8/10 even though you found it hard, if I had to add anything it would be to give the player some hidden help, like the boss's health slowly ticking down or just easier bosses in general. I feel like the game would have lost a bit of charm if I had made them easier though. Glad you liked the game and thanks for playing.
One thing you can do, dont make the game easy, but for starting 2-3 level just add or give player some sort of gun or somthing, or give him more health and make that if the balls hit the bat the would go very lessly but a little bit toward the enemy
That's a nice entry. Well done.
1. Thanks for the feedback
2. Glad you like the mechanic
3. Restart should have been something else
4. I should have said to use the mouse
5. Thanks for playing
Yes I make list because it's easier than making good English comments. I'm a little bit tired...
Fair enough, dont have to worry about grammar.
The game is soo cool, even if it's a little bit hard to use the bat, since it's very small and projectiles usually don't go in the direction that you want :P
The bosses, and their music are REALLY Cool!! Good Job!!
Thx so much, the bat needs some major improvements but besides that I tried to polish as much as I could.
Nice entry. The mechanic of deflecting shots is very interesting. I found it really difficult to hit the projectiles in the direction I wanted, I found I was frantically dodging and swinging with the hope it'd go the right way. Didn't stop me trying multiple times though. I personally wouldn't use E to reset the game as it's so close the movement keys, I accidentally reset the game a few times which was frustrating.
Sorry about that. I usually use R to restart but I don't know what I was thinking when I made it E.
This is a pretty solid entry! Reflecting enemy projectiles is a mechanic I haven't seen super often in games before. The aesthetics are really nice and fit the geometry theme very well. Also, A+ title.
I have to say, though, that I found the controls not feeling very good. I felt like I had almost no control over where the reflected projectiles go and I often felt like projectiles went straight through my bat swing, possibly connected to the hand switching? I feel like improving the feel of the bat a bit could really turn this into an outstanding game.
Also, not giving you a checkpoint after the final boss' first phase felt a bit mean. The music is a banger, though, so I could live with it.
(Oh, and also for some reason the writing made me feel like I was the bad guy. Like, that poor golem :( I wonder how intentional that was)
Wow thanks for writing this whole thing of feedback! I will try tweaking the controls and improving the bat!
This is really cool! I thought the way I had to kill each boss by reflecting their projectiles is really unique. I also like how the boss sprites are made up of simple shapes. I thought the music was very fitting as well. My only complaint is that its pretty hard. Maybe you could make the size of the bat bigger so it easier to hit the projectiles. In the end I made it through the first two bosses, and I had a lot of fun, good job!
Thx for the feedback. I had a lot of people asking for an extra bat or make it bigger. I consider it but ultimately decided against it.
This is awesome! The boss battles are great and the bat mechanic is easy to understand, but hard to fully master, great work.
Yeah thx, that's what I like about it. Its got an easy to learn mechanic that's hard to master. But you need to master it to beat the final boss.
Yes, the final boss is tough
Hope you could beat it! :)
I like the atmosphere of your game, the boss battle, the dialogus system. it 's a bit difficult with the bats. maybe a little a bit of tweaking could make it even better.
Yeah Its all a learning experience. Glad you enjoyed
Ooo, a boss fight game! I really like the music and the behaviors of each of the bosses! I think the game can be better if the controls are more responsive.
Thx for the feedback , glad you like it!
