This game has lots of potential to become a really good metroidvania! The abilities were pretty cool and varied, and the amount of content was amazing considering the time given for the jam. Really good game, please continue it!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback :)

This game is pretty damn cool, i think the skills have a lot of potential for various enemies and level designs. 

But sadly at the final boss dracula fell into the pit at the left and then decided to skidaddle through the wall, so i couldn't see the ending.

Developer

Nooooo oof this happens a lot, i gotta fix it ahahahah, spoiler there is no ending, i didnt have the time.

I'm very happy you liked it tho, thanks for playing

it s a great game . i was looking to make a  platformer. do you use rigidbody 2d to move the player ?

Developer(+1)

I used mainly transform control but i used rigidbody 2 for interactions and gravity

Awesome game with a lot of content. Managing all the skills was a challenge especially when beating the bosses.

I ran your game using WINE since I'm on linux, but it still performed perfectly I think.

Developer

Uh very good, thanks for playing my game :)

Wow, a surprising amount of content for a jam game! Good controls and well polished. It would be great if you would export a web build. It's fairly easy to do in Unity and a lot more people will play it.

Bel lavoro!

Developer

I'll surely think about it today, Thank you for playing!

Developer

Ahahaah si bella! rarissimo

Nice game, but I found the keyboard-layout to be very awkward. Did not really know how to place my hands to be able to reach everything when I needed.

Really liked the background art :)

Developer

Ye maybe the dodge on C is a bit annoying, maybe a key on the right hand would have been better

Nice gameplay, nice art, awesome bosses.
Found little hack, if you didn't get skill yet, you can just found which key will use it, and use it from first boss. But it was very interesting.

Developer

Uh i thought I fixed that, thank you ahahah

Developer

Fixed the bug that prevents you to re-fight Dracula

so I played your game from start to endboss, and the looks are a improvable, but I think your gameplay is very well made! the cam could be set a little further away, one passages between bosses it feels a little disorientating with the close cam. 

the Skills are well made - only the P skill I don t know what to use for. 

the Endboss has a bug - if you get killed you spawn outside q.q

the "health" mechanik is also a little unbalanced cause the "normal" vampires who run around don t hurt you at all. 


overall those issues are just "transform" or number wise, the code and gameplay is solid and with some higher quality art it would be a game I d want to work further on! I like it a lot!

Developer

Ye most of the art is made by me and I'm the farthest thing from an artist ahahahha, just tiles are made by an artist

"P" is a garlic mine, the idea was that every boss gives you his or her skill, the 3rd one thows bombs so you get something explosive too

Thanks for telling me about the bug

The normal vampires slash you, but is volontarely easily dodgeable


Thank you so much for playing and I'm very happy you menaged to get to the end :)

Let me know if you managed to defeat Dracula
