This was pretty fun to play! Everything worked well, apart from the jump button sometimes not working.
I really would have liked it if ESC didn't take you right back to the beginning, as I kept hitting it on impulse when I wanted to pause (even though I didn't need to). It was also a bit hard to read the text, as it was the same colour as the podium, but I don't know if that was intentional.
But yeah, this is a really nice jam game. I remember seeing your screenshots in Discord and thinking it looked cool :)
Thanks !
I also found this bug with the jump button, I know what causes this bug but I couldn't correct it before the end of the jam.
I should definitely make a pause menu for my games. I always use the ESC button to return to the main menu and quit the game while testing but I always forget to add a pause menu.
The text color was intentional. It looks better and it forces the player to look up, since the text is supposed to be a voice coming from the hole in the center of the temple I thought it was a good idea. But yeah, it also makes it hard to read, I should have added a shadow to the text or something to make it more visible.
I like that intro animation, feels like serious sam again
but I couldn't make that slide jump for the life of me, it's like cuphead to my game journalism
but then I realized I can sprint.
I liked the bed room, the trampoline idea was genius
Thanks !
I really wanted an animated intro that feels like older Tomb Raiders. I didn't think about Serious Sam but it also works.
The slide jump was the initial plan, but I couldn't make it work properly So I decided to put the next platform closer to let the player jump on it easily.
