First run: I made it all the way to the end very fast! Then discovered I needed to kill a lot more than I did... so instead of backtracking I just hit the restart to start over and focus more on kills instead of dodging.
Run #2 - I got stuck in a ceiling with 60% of the souls bar filled :(
Couldn't get unstuck, so had to restart again.
Run #3 - THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM!! Ascended to my second form and LOL, that was totally unexpected and amazing! Really unique character moveset that was quite fun and challenging to navigate with! Really gave me renewed interest to keep playing more! Then the final form, I had a blast having so much mobility and power, I played it out to the final ending! I even met the evil brother >:]
Loved the experience start to finish besides the technical issues. Amazing work, and such interesting unique concepts! Were there any other secrets I missed?
big thanks for playing the game and taking the time to write such a detailed response!
the robot in the start is supposed to tell you about the "soul" bar, but in hindsight maybe it's too easy to not notice and just walk past him. also maybe the dialogue isn't clear enough.
sorry about your second run haha, the game is a bit of bug fest right now and we sadly didn't have time to fix all of them :(
still really glad you enjoyed the game! about the secrets: i think you found them all.
wish we had time to add more lore stuff and some more animations and art but maybe in the future...
Thanks for the feedback, mate. You're right, it is a bug. We do have a feature that lets you return to the last checkpoint by pressing 'T', but it seems it wasn't clear since you restarted the run instead. How do you think we could make this feature more noticeable?
I think if there was a menu button in the corner, I would have clicked it >
and maybe could have rediscovered the controls I missed, like if there's a button labeled "Restart At Checkpoint [T]", or just a general list of controls in a permanent place I can refer to.
I missed that you mentioned it in the description, whoops! I was in fullscreen mode and felt locked in cus when the game is minimized, the itchio page cuts off a big part of the screen, so for some reason minimizing never crossed my mind!
(Like the start game button is cut off completely until you fullscreen it)
Sounds like our game came with its own hidden difficulty: finding the controls!
A menu button would definitely save some head-scratching moments.
anyway thanks for sticking with it and the feedback!
Interesting entry this one! I didn’t expect to hear that low pitch “EURGHH” but when I did I giggled. Fun to just leap around piling through enemies though!
happy to have made you laugh, that definitely was our main aim for the game.
thank you for playing the game!
Hey, thanks in advance for playing the game!
