How does your game fit the theme?
You upgrade your character and literally build him to scale. As you leave the starting area the enemies get larger, and once you get to the boss fight, it is larger than your average virus.

Simple game, but fun! Love the upgrade system and how it changes the size of the body parts. Overall, nice little game! Good job! 

Submitted

I like the way you interpreted the theme! The body parts changing size was really cool. The visuals are simple and cohesive, creating a nice look and atmosphere. Really fun game with replay value!

Submitted

The graphics are pretty cool, definitely selling the cyberspace setting. It was fun to see body part size mismatches on the character. I might have preferred a different goal rather than searching for codes, it was a bit tedious.

Amazing job my friend! Very impressive how much you were able to accomplish. I played so many times and had a lot of fun focusing on different "builds". Really great job and I am excited to see what else you accomplish! :) (Also great job applying the theme to both the main character AND the enemies, very smart)

Developer

I'm so glad you liked it! I appreciate the feedback as well. I really put a lot of effort into balancing the mechanic to make the builds. Thank you!

fun little game cute idea!

Developer

Thank you!

It's a great job, but I personally didn't like the management

Developer

Thanks for trying it still!

Great game - fantastic work - really enjoyed playing this - you've done an amazing job and it fits the theme really well

Developer

Thank you so much, i put a lot of time into it and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Great work! Great use of theme, good looking post processing. Very fun to play!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

I think this game would benefit a lot from having more combat options. Like maybe deflecting projectiles or a secondary sword attack. The sword swing is quite sluggish so gameplay feels quite slow.

Animations and sound effect need a bit of work though. I recommend adding sound for the sword swing as it's a core part of the gameplay.

Though if you polish it and add more enemy variety, this game definitely has potential. Keep making games!

Also this is pretty funny lol:

Yea I think it could have been better if I had a little more time. I really appreciate the detailed feedback though and helping me know what to fix :)

Submitted

Great work! I had fun dashing around and slaying the bugs. I managed to get to the boss room but my fully upgraded character was almost too big to move around the room and I died to the boss's attacks 😅Still it's a great entry, and I'm a big fan of the cyber aesthetic!

Developer(+1)

Yeah that was one thing I didn't think all the way through, thanks for the feedback though!

Submitted

I really enjoyed this. Very good approach for the theme. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much! I really wanted to stick to the theme of building your character, and I am glad you enjoyed it! 

Submitted

Great use of theme, and love seeing the upgrades effect the character. Feels like a solid base for a lot of fun additions if you decide to continue.

Developer

Yeah, I think this would be a really fun one to continue working on. However I think I need to get better at organizing my code because towards the end I just started adding stuff in and it was some bad spaghetti code lol. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Incredibly impressive for a solo dev. Love the style and attack patterns

Developer(+1)

I was grinding so hard to get it done in time, thanks for the feedback though!

Submitted

love the glowy aesthetic

Developer

Thanks, I found out how to use unity's post processing lol

Submitted

the boss room is hard to find but the start is very fun

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Once you find all the keys it should have had an arrow pointing to the boss fight, but I'm glad you liked it!

Cool! The game looks very awesome! But the gameplay can get boring quickly.

Developer(+1)

Yea I get the thing about the gameplay. I feel like maybe adding different attacks or more of a variety of enemies would have been good.

Submitted

Cool game! Good job and i really like the style and the post processing. Its simple but still very good!

Developer

I'm glad you liked it!

cool concept here. Was fun to play. Good work. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I tried really hard to make the gameplay feel responsive.
