itch.io

Wow, thanks a lot for the detailed report! I don't know when I'll be able to work on the game again or if I will at some point (it's been  more than 2 years since I last updated it), but if I do, I'll make sure to check this scenario and fix it.

Thanks again for playing it and mentioning the bug  🙇

I don't have Linux installed but try opening a terminal and typing

./"Bizarre Souls.x86_64" inside the folder where you unzip the zip file.

You could also try installing itch.io on linux and running the game from the itch.io app

Thanks! That was very fun to watch haha, muy bueno :)

You're totally right about the graphics settings, it was a big mistake on my side and I will make sure to add those in my future games. I really appreciate your feedback. As for Bizarre Souls, I can't work on it right now and I'm not sure if I'm going to do it anytime soon since I wrapped the development like 1 year ago and don't have as much free time right now as I had back then, but I may come back to it at some point, can't promise anything, though.

Thanks! Sorry, I don't have an Ubuntu OS  right now and can't install a virtual machine at this moment to test it there 😔

This is great. Thanks for sharing it! A small note: I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but the dimensions are swapped for me (I uploaded a 1920x1080 texture but the exported png is a 1080x1920 one)

Thanks a lot!
It's perfectly fine if you report them, although I don't know if  I will be able to fix them anytime soon.

That's interesting🤔, it's the first time I hear about that bug. Does it happen after doing some specific move like stopping time yourself? Is there any other bug you've found?

wow, you lasted a long time with that last chunk of life, good job there!

I'm afraid the game would be very different :( . I designed it to be played with a gamepad controller on a PC (and then added keyboard & mouse support). Porting it to android means that I'd need to do a lot of optimisations to make it run smoothly and re-design the controls (and probably the mechanics) so that playing it on a phone screen feels good.

Nope, sorry, only desktop.

You don't need winzip or any third party software to unzip the file if you're using Windows 10. Here's a  2min video that shows how to do it

Hi! There are 3 download buttons. If you use Windows click the first one, if you use Linux click the second one, and if you use mac, click the last one. Once you have downloaded it right click it and unzip it. Then double click the .exe file.

Ohh, I didn't know about this. Thanks for sharing it @screamingbluething!

Are you getting any error? I don't have a mac so I can't test it myself, but I may be able to search for a solution

What are your PC specs? What version did you download?

That was very cool, good job everyone!

lol, thanks for playing!

I'm happy you liked it!

The combat controls feel very good, and it's gorgeous, I'd like to see a full game release, good job Harry!

Thanks for your feedback. You're absolutely right, I neglected the performance totally and didn't include options to tweak it. While I don't plan to work on this game any more I will totally follow your advice for future games.

Just played the game again after the update. I like the new controls better, however they are still uncomfortable for me. I'm using a Xbox series controller and punching and shielding with RB & LB instead of RT & LT makes my hands hurt after 1 combat. I know this could be easily fixed with rebind-able controls, but I still think that RT & LT should be the default bindings.

The shield icon is perfect, great job.

I still find the AIs unfair because I cannot predict their attacks at all. The "preparation phase" of their animations that tells you where and what attack they are going to do it's very short (I've tried only beginner this time). However, thanks to the new controls I've been very close to beating intermediate (about 5% health second and third try), while I couldn't even lower its health to 40% when I tried last time with old controls.

Keep it up, overall this is very good, I love it an I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Sounds cool, keep it up!

Nice dungeon. It would be cool if you could block attacks or use a dash to dodge them.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it

I can't work on the game any more but thanks for your feedback!

Oh! My God!

Thanks!

Thanks!

No, sorry, I didn't add graphics options and I can't work on Bizarre Souls at this moment. I will do better next time 🙇.

Wow, that's quite a feat! Thanks for playing my game, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊

There is no "true secret" at all, sorry 😅. It was just a joke to get more people to subscribe to my channel.

It's a souls-game :P. Advice:

- Try using locked camera more often
- Rely more on your time stop  ability.

Thanks for playing!
