very good game!! big map and atmospheric sounds. the voices are nice, too. Your game makes much fun!
Thank you! we glad you enjoyed the game :
That was good fun :) Very pretty art style and the boss in the top left was creepy haha! I had the same issue as the other poster and kept getting stuck on walls which made the jump pack sections a bit difficult.
One change I might recommend though is that I know the map is a Castlevania Symphony Of the Night styled one but it might be good to have the option of having a smaller map on screen to the side like with Metal Gear Solid 1 for example!
Either way though awesome entry! :)
Thank you for playing our game! yeah, the jump was a pretty common issue we had but it is updated now from all the feedbacks^^ and about the map, i think thats a pretty interesting one too, thank you for the suggestions tho!
Great submission, really nice graphics and the genre was interesting and not expected. Metroidvania esque gameplay was pretty interesting to see here. I liked the jetpack.
Thank you! glad to hear that you enjoyed your time playing the game! :
First of all, the game looks great. The backgrounds are atmospheric, the enemies have personality, and everything is well-animated. Even the lighting is really effective and dramatic. It made me think of Ori and Hollow Knight, in a good way.
Level design is also clever. There are challenges, but I was usually able to find a way to progress.
Controls are also solid, with one important reservation. I kept getting stuck on walls. At first I thought this was leading to a wall-jump move, but if there is, I just couldn't figure it out. If there is no wall-jump, friction should be removed so the player can slide down.
Audio is also very high quality. However, I found that the story audio, which was intriguing and well-acted, was sometimes drowned out by "routine" audio ("Access Denied," "Escape Pod Locked"). In my opinion, story audio should take priority over routine audio.
Lastly, I didn't find the head up display entirely intuitive. The map was clear, and I understood the weapon display (punch, cryo, etc.), but the health and fuel displays were somewhat confusing. I wonder whether quantized displays (e.g., with a certain number of visible "segments") would be easier to understand.
Overall, very impressive!
Thanks for the feedback! I'm sure those changes can be made for the game.
