This is a good start! Not too much to comment on yet, but it's a good framework. The music works well! I think the combat needs a little tweaking to feel more satisfying, but I do like the impact that hits have! Keep it up, I hope you are able to finish this!
I like the premise of a slightly older magical girl and you seem to have a functional framework here, so I'm happy to follow the development of this project. Definitely liked the music with the combat track fading in, I'm a sucker for that.
This looks promising, but it's definitely very very early, and I'm probably not going to write that much because there's so little to really look at here.
The premise reminds me of Magical Girl Z from the last jam a bit. I'd definitely be interested in playing a game with that storyline!
I didn't like the combat at first, but I liked it better the second time around. It seems very timing based, but it's loose enough that I can land hits even though I kind of suck at timing things. I'm not sure how well it would work with multiple enemies- I think that would be the next thing to try.
I like the dynamic music that changes when a fight starts. If there's something that stands out as interesting and innovative it's definitely this.
The world is visually pleasing and has an interesting layout, though I'd like to see more details and interactivity in a finished game.
Any plans to continue with this?
Thanks! We did ultimately decide to continue this. We ended up getting way too ambitious for the time frame, but so long as we finish everything in the end, I'll be extremely proud.
So... yeah, it's a prototype. Unless I missed something you can only beat up three enemies and then quit.
To be critical...
Otherwise... yeah, it's a prototype. You can move and hit stuff, stuff responds. There's simply not much to... comment on, frankly. That said, I do love the premise of an adult magical girl having to balance work and sparkles; that definitely has potential to go far. It's a shame we don't get to see any of it, since it's a prototype, but I still love the idea.
I'll pass this along to the rest of the team and we'll take care of it! Thanks for playing!
