I had a lot of fun playing and the visuals are really good! the sound effects were nice aswell but a bit of music would have been nice. but great game!
Excellent game, implementation, and graphics! loved it all, Good job!
Very cool game! The controls are super nice! The sounds and graphics are very good! Great job!
A really well-polished game! The shooting feels super nice and the movement is really responsive. The idea that you need to die 5 times in addition to surviving to wave 5 adds a surprise element that fits well with the theme. Overall a really fun game. Nice job!
It would be cooler if each player ghost can loop their behavior a few times before vanishing, can't wait to see 5 - 6 ghosts shooting at the same time XD
This is a fun game.
I am quite confused about this one. I got to wave 5 before I died once. Than I got to the boss which insta killed me..? I didn't even shoot him once.
Maybe I should have died more?
Good graphics, I think a bit too much screen shake. More variety of enemies would be cool too.
Well done!
The post-processing makes the pixel art look awesome! More variety in the shooting sound would be great. For my liking the game was a bit too easy, but I understand that you can't make the difficulty perfect for everyone. I still really enjoyed playing it.
Thanks for feedback! In my previous games people were saying they were too hard, so I've decided to make this one easier. Guess I can't please everone, haha. I'll add more varied shooting sounds in my future projects
I love the concept of using your past self. Great game with a lot of polish.
Great game! I love how you managed to make such simple yet beautiful visuals. The game is pretty fun, and the concept of basically creating allies with your own reflections (or, "ghosts") was a neat idea. Well done!
Wow, this game has such a good game feel! The lighting, the particle effects, the UI, the enemy design, all come together to make a game that looks beautiful and feels great to play! Some music would've been nice and the shooting sound got suuuuper grating after a while, but the base gameplay mechanic is really cool. I enjoyed the mechanic of having the ghost repeat what you did before you died, it was cool having me and my ghost buddies mow down the enemies. I think the tutorial could be made a little more clearer, it says that I need to die 5 times to win? Or is there a certain amount of waves I need to make it through?
I tried to make some music, but couldn't come up with anything decent in time. I see how shooting sounds could get tiring after a while, I could randomize the pitch for some variety. You have to beat 5 waves of enemies during which you have to die 5 times, though I agree the tutorial could be better. Thanks for the detailed feedback!
noice
This is a great example of a 4 star game, It feels polished and fleshed out to the point where everything feels great, but it could feel better. Mainly, a checkpoint system, and one or two more enemy types, along with a slightly better implemented main theme mechanic, and it would be near Perfect. Amazing game!
really fun game, it kind of felt like a multiplayer shooter at the end.
One thing tho. At the end there was this big eye and it said I should bring more friends , so I did a second run and died on purpose because I expected it to be some sort of boss battle that uses the multiple characters mechanic. But then it was just a victory round where you defeat the eye with the power of friendship or something. I found that to be a little dissapointing.
The enemy designs are great, the shooting feels very responsive. you could have gone a little bit lighter on the post processing tho in my opinion.
Thanks for feedback! I wanted to do some sort of a boss fight, but I was running pretty tight in terms of time, so I decided to just make it a sequence. About the post processing, you can adjust it in pause menu by pressing "p". Cheers!
Very nice graphics and sounds! I seriously can not believe you made this in only one weekend!
I enjoyed your game. i really liked your idea and the game play was fun. There are only 2 things that i could think of improving and those are: Differentiating the ghosts a bit more from the main character and adding a counter on how many times you allready died.
Thanks for feedback! The counter is on the left of the health bar, the glowing dots represent your deaths. Now that I think about it a simple counter could be more intuitive
This has a really cool style and love the help from previous lives. I wish the main character was a little faster as enemies sometimes matched my speed and followed right next and made them easy too shoot. Love the having to die a set amount to actually win too. Really cool
that was fun! it was hard to not die XD
Amazing submission. Had a lot of fun playing.
The idea with the 5 clones at the end was really creative ^^
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
I really Liked it! The soundeffects were juicy, the art was simple but nice and the gameplay was super fun.
Really nice Game! :P simple and fun! Fits the theme really good as losing is progress
