the game was a bit unplayable because for some reason I couldn't jump most of the time and randomly it chose if i could jump or not
The game looked really nice and I liked the story. I ended up getting really frustrated with the hit boxes. They felt a little to big and I would just barley end up hitting a spike and would have to restart the level. This could be due to the level being so crammed. Felt like I was constantly threading a needle to get past the spikes. Overall the game looked really nice but I feel like the level need some adjustment
Thanks :)
The story is so good and i really enjoyed unlocking the climax to see the end! The game was really challenging so couldn't get more than one person in the hole, so it was a good idea to be able to unlock the climax without finishing!
Thanks :)
The art is so good! The story is enjoyable, I love how it's presented. Personally I had no issues with the controls, I thought they were rather tight. However the levels are very cramped and the hitboxes are unforgiving, so there's no real chance to show it off. The bucket is annoyingly placed, especially for the first platform in the game, though I did find that if you just run forward, stick to the platform for a second, then you'll drop onto the rock below allowing me to thankfully skip that section. Overall the difficulty is extremely difficult. I could only make it to the extruding spike platform but never past it, and eventually had to give up. Having to restart the level with the mouse was annoying. It'd be nice if this were done via keystroke since at no other point during gameplay do I have to touch the mouse, meaning I needed to move my hand back and forth between my keyboard and mouse every death.
Thank you, for the feedback
Note:- You can watch the climax if you play the game once(win or lose, no problem).
Great game mechanic seem little hard for me to get the grip of understanding but overall i had fun!
Thanks
A solid concept and an enjoyable intro. The sticky controls were the most challenging part of getting one player down to the water. Would love to see the controls smoothed out so I can make it past the first part.
A great start and hopefully not the end of this game.
Awesome game. Movement and animations could be improved, but the leveled seem kind of "cramped"? Dont know how to explain it. I rated yours. Could you check out mine too?
Hi
As @AddothGames say the movement is a bit difficult.
in fact the jumps is very nice and all of that but the levvel design is not well suited for it.
Make more space so we can realy start to play by not hit this dumb bucket that make us fall in the pit and it will be a very good game.
By the way art stile is very nice, your color scheme is wonderfull.
It's a very good attempt. Well done.
unfortunatley the movement is a tad.... challenging for my part, however the overall idea and execution was really great, and i loved the story-element of it all!
