I really like your art and the music fits well with the setting. I the character controlled well too. The only problem I had was if there were too many bats on screen the whole game would lag. Good work!
Thanks! I'll try to rate your game soon. I'll look into the lagging, during play testing I didn't find the game to lag much, maybe I'll be able to see what the problem is in the update that I'm working on.
Nice work! I can tell it's inspired by Spelunky but all good games come from the ideas of others :).
I would have liked to have the ability to attack enemies, but like you've mentioned in your page, there's more updates to come!
Thanks! Yeah I did want some way to attack them other than jumping on them, but I didn't want to just steal everything from Spelunky lol, I figured I could add a bunch of items - including weapons - In some future updates.
I'll try out your submission later today!
Nice games, with big levels to explore :)
I did find the controls a little twitchy - sometimes I could double jump, etc. But nothing a little bit of time to polish wouldn’t sort!
Yeah, I did find the movement a little off while making the game, now that it's submitted maybe I'll have time to fix it! Also, thanks for rating the game! I'll try my best to rate all the games.
This was fun :)
Very cute character, and pleasant music.
Please do not move the camera with the character during jumps.
Alright, thanks for playing! I'll see what I can do with the camera, maybe I'll make an options menu to turn camera movement during jumps on and off.
AMAZING!! , It Is Very Good Game
Thank you! I'll be sure to rate yours!
