Alright, this is Escape from Corrin. A space maze with a shoot'em up mechanic. A very original game... I have a lot of problems with.
- There is... some kind of a text problem in the options.
- The timer have literally no impact on gameplay. Not even the starting cutscene. You can let the timer go, it is completely useless. And for some reason, it stays for gameplay sequences for a moment. Nothing would change if the timer were to be removed entirely.
- Little cutscene problem.
- Hitboxes are very janky. For the player and the enemies alike.
- Herrrr... I died and instead of having a game over, this happened:
- Getting through the exit in this state will trigger a game over. The reason why is that Serena is finally the only party member. (For some reason. Why was there so many in the party in the first place?)
- Charging the laser for a long time then launching it results on the skill not activating and a loud annoying noise that only stop upon attacking/charging again.
- Almost anything spend "mana". Even shooting. Not even using a skill, just the basic weapon. It isn't much, but I never heard of a shoot'em up where shooting is restricted even so slightly. You just have to spam your skills and you may find yourself locked from shooting at all for a short time.
- Oh yeah, damage popups are completely broken. You might want to double check that. Impossible to tell for sure how much damage we took.
- There is times where the ship literally teleports where you are and attacks you before you can react. Doesn't exactly scream fair especially when you get to the boss room with 8 HP.
- You can leave the arena and save during the boss fight. (Additionally, the boss can also leave the arena.)
- You can use this trick to trigger the pre-boss cutscene again and have a glance to where the boss can be without getting closer.
Alright, I think that's all I have to say about it. Congratulations at least. I can just respect you for trying something as brave as going so far from RPG Maker MV's limitations. Sadly, to me, it doesn't work out here. (But maybe I'm biassed as I'm not really an expert in shoot'em ups. Despite that, this game have undeniable problems that need to be solved.)
Good luck for the game jam!
