There's potential here :) Try making the bullets bigger and more visible and the AI less agressive, that takes a lof of the difficulty. Also a health bar makes a lot of sense in those kind of games, even if it's just a number going down, it adds a lot readability.

Thanks for the suggestions! We will definitely polish it to its best version. I will keep note of the things you mentioned. 📌

Nice work.

Good theme and object implementation. Nice simple little platform/shooter. I didn't realize I could shoot at first. It was much easier when I figured that out.

Other comments covered other thoughts I had, but I wanted to say the parallax was a little too much on the background. After going through the portal, standing there, I felt like I was still moving.

Cheers. Keep up the good work.

We appreciate your observation about the shooting mechanics and parallax, and We will consider adjusting it for sure. We definitely had the same thoughts as yours at some point, but we didn't prioritised them enough, but we will keep a note of it for the future projects. Thanks alot!

Here are my notes while playing:

  • Would be nice if the enemies bullets had a range
  • Would be nice if the bullets collision could hit the platforms as well. This would allow hiding behind them and getting height over the enemies to kill them without taking damage.
  • Would be a nice quality of life to have an HP bar
  • felt like the game screen was too dark
  • Cute character
  • Like the blood animation of getting hit

Nice job.

thanks buddy! I really appreciate your comment. We could do alot more but there was shortage of time. And we had to wind up all the things. We miss somethings but we also boomed some things. Our focus was to get the story relatable that's why if you notice our game player had space crash 4 days ago! And there was something written on the plane.

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestions! It's great to hear that you're interested in features we had in mind. But we didn't invested enough time in them cuz of the rush we had.  As it was our first time, We will keep a note of it for future. 💖
