I could not play the game on Chrome version 106.0.5249.119 on Ubuntu 22.04.1. I could hear sound but not display. I then tried Firefox 106.0.1 (same OS) and I could see the game, but no audio! So strange!
But here’s my feedback from what I did experience. The sound is very nice! And I like the beginning. It’s a bit like hollow knight. It sets the mood well. And the art is really neat! The enemies are grotesque, even though it’s pixel art. The attack animations are smooth and have that nice trailing effect. I wish I could experienced everything together.
Going with an unusual control scheme was a big, big mistake. It made the game much harder than it had to be and was frustrating. Next time, or maybe on a post-jam update, use the standard controls. And supporting gamepad would be good too.
The attacks and jump are sluggish or floaty. So, the animations are nice, but need to be sped up or altered so that they’re crisper and allow for better response times.
Seams like this could be a great game! Just remember, if you find the game challenging or hard, and you are the maker, then other’s will find it very difficult or impossible.
We would love it if you played our game, rated it and gave us some feedback! It would help us learn and grow as developers! Thanks!
