This game was a ton of fun to play -  the music, the sound, the pixel art and the gameplay were all suburb!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! Glad you had fun :)

This is one of the few game that had me playing for an extended time. The mechanic was hyper addictive. It felt so satisfying to round up a whole room of batteries and try to zap them in one. 

I may suggest the levels should have auto ended after the goal was reached, to prevent the player from needing to kill themselves. 

This has been a very impressive, well balanced contribution to the jam. Thank you and well done.

Developer

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it :) 

I actually wondered if I should end the level when the goal is reached or let the player go for a high score on each level. (still not sure if I'm gonna leave it like that or not after the jam ^^) 

Thanks for the feedback and for hosting the jam. I had a blast joining this one :)

Cool game! Nice job on the visuals. The little electricity lines were my favorite. 

At first I thought the enemies getting stuck would work to my advantage but it ended up making them kind of unpredictable. Not sure if that was intended or not. 

Great job!

Developer

Thank you very much :)

The ennemis getting stuck wasn't planned at first. But, like you said, it ended up being helpful for the gameplay so I kept it that way :) 

Thanks for the feedback :)

Awesome concept, I love arena/wave based games. New mechanics were introduced one after another and not overwhelming. I usually try to give more feedback, but the game is near perfect.

Developer

Thank you very much ! :)

Adorable visuals, and got fun pretty quickly! Love the mechanic.
Also each level adds something new so you don't get bored.

Developer

Thank you ! Glad you liked it :)

Really liked the music, the game is very challenging, the best level is the third, the moving teslas are more fun than those that are static.

Developer

Thanks ! glad you liked it :)

What an interesting concept. At first, I thought "Where's the challenge?" but then I got hit a couple of times because of my poor pathfinding.

Developer

Thanks ^^

Level design, mecanic, audio, art style... everything is absolutly perfect, Thats a really good work -one of my favorite

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Very cool game. Art direction is awesome and it's pretty fun to play. I found it a bit too easy (except for the 3rd level). Maybe one less hit point? But the aside from that really solid game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much !
Yes the difficulty might need a bit more balancing :)

Thanks for playing & for the feedback :)

enjoyed playing this amazing action game! the graphics are neat and the controls are responsive, the gameplay is fun, the goal is clear and the learning curve is appropriate with the present level, I  Iike the way the batteries were swatted like flies when I lure them and blast them with a dose of electricity. This has good replay value. Congratulations! keep it up!

Developer

Thank you very much ! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Wonderful art and a neat spin on what I assumed at first was going to be a rather standard top-down shooter. The zap lines are however rather frustrating to line up, which hurts the fun of the game play feel. Overall though a great little contender.

Developer

Thank you very much ! Glad you liked it :)
Yeah I got that feedback a few times. My though was to make the hitbox really thin so you had to take risks and get close to avoid missing them. But I might increase it a bit after the jam to remove some frustration.

Thanks for playing & for the feedback ! Appreciate it :)

Cool idea, I wish the electricity lines were a little thicker to make it easier. That might just be me though. Good job!

Developer

Thank you ! :)
Yes, the line are thin on purpose. It's to force the player to aim precisely & force him to take risk by getting close to the enemies. but you're not the first one to give me that feedback :)
Thanks for playing !

Great game loved the concept and the levels were really good! Great job!

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Fun game. Level 2 felt the best out of all. If you are considering to do a future update I would add some ghost time when you get hit, so that I would be able to get away from enemies when I get hit.

Developer

That seems like a good idea.

Thanks for the feedbacks :)

Greetings, i'm from the https://itch.io/jam/lost-relic-games-1/rate/1579785 submission!

I also was thinking about going for a arena survival game this time but i didn't get an idea for it :(

Your idea is genius! My favorite level was level 3 when they nodes coming out and get destroyed after using it. Was really fun to play!

Developer

Thanks :) Glad you had fun with it.

I'll go take a look at your game :)

Submitted

LOL... that gang beating! Very nice mechanics... you really need to wait for them to be close to you before killing them... that raises my anxiety. Good job!

Developer

Thanks a lot :)

Submitted

I really like the idea, the animations, sound and polish make the game a delight to play. Great work! :)

Developer

Thank you very much ! :)
