nice graphics and it was interesting with the debugger stream showing in the background as to what the game was doing. nice work for 2 days
Thanks dude, i uploaded the game in full panic mode when itch.io went total meltdown, so i didn't even take time to leave out my debug code before making the build :p
It was a bit easy but overall a fun concept ^_^
Yeah didn't have time to balance it and all since i'm quite a noob, also time constraints :p
Thanks for trying it though i'm glad you like it :)
The idea is interesting... but the execution lacks gamefeel and a goal.
I get that the objective of the game is "screw attack" as much enemies as possible, but the only fail state is letting them hit you which you can avoid entirely because the screw attack has barely any cooldown so you can spam it indefinitely, there's not much challange.
The game could be way more fun if you added said cooldown (maybe after the player hits the ground they'll need to wait half a second before making another jump), make the player loose if an enemy reaches the bottom of the screen (plus them hitting you while you're not screw-attacking) and add a score or time limit.
I'll definitively look into adding a goal for the ennemies who can reach the bottom of the screen as many people rightfully pointed out that this could add some goals other than not dying, i'm also planning to add a score or killcount to keep track of the player's performance (i still have to learn how to do that though)
The cooldown might indeed be a good solution to rebalance the attack and prevent spamming
Thanks for your feedback and helpful tips :)
