Aesthetics were great. Gameplay was hampered by bad enemy AI that had them all grouping in the bottom of the screen or just not moving. I liked the command line conceit, and how turning to face a direction was an action in and of itself (with attack being one too), but after typing "move" several times in a row, some of its appeal was lost. It needs some Quality of Life upgrades, but I do like the concept and a lot of its execution.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. There are definitely some issues in the AI and commands that have to be accounted for. I plan to come back to it eventually and improve upon it. Hopefully, I can make it even better.
Well all the best with it!
Loved how polished it is, I find it incredible how you had a game look like this in so little time. Also pretty fun, really enjoyed it
Thanks! I really appreciate it. Over nearly 10 years or on-off game dev (very amateur level), I've definitely learned a lot. I hope to make an even better, more polished version of this eventually.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I hadn't though of that, but yeah you're right. It sort of does. I wonder if I could make a speed run version where you have limited time to type in commands and it feels almost real time.
Interesting !!!
Typing command to operate character is attractive for programmer ( like me : ) ). I tried many times to get this score. Sound, fonts, and graphics are match for this game! !
I like it very much : )
I'm glad you liked it. I've always seen command-based games to be a fun concept and I decided to finally try it. I plan on trying to polish this game and publish it (probably just for free on my page). I'm glad you liked all the aspects of it. Impressive final score.
