Hello from tonight's stream!
So I'll admit, it took me a bit to get the controls down primarily because I was on keyboard. Once I did, however, what I got was a nice jump an' shoot platformer.
That said, I noticed a few things that could use adjusting. For starters, the complete mismatch between the music and the visuals... and the music against other music. Not one track fit with how the game looked. On top of this, the tracks were all over the place. First it's this tragic doom song, then it's happy bunny land, then it's the lord of metal, then it's like something out of Donkey Kong Country. Nothing matches with the other songs in any remote way and, save for the DKC-esque song, no song fit with the aesthetic.
Another thing I noticed was how hard it was to discern what each power-up was, both on the box you collected for it and when you had it equipped. Differences are so minimal. It should be easier to see what the power-up is.
Finally, I felt having the robot above the robot you play ends up making things feel too busy.
