I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it! Yeah, I think the game can be challenging at first, and a more thoughtful difficulty curve would make it a much better experience. Maybe dividing rooms into pools based on their difficulty and spawning them according to the player's score would solve the issue. Letting players memorize room layouts in small chunks instead of throwing everything out at once.
Thanks for the feedback! Dying because of the unseen treat is indeed frustrating. My solution to the problem you describe is that the tile next to the wall is always safe, unless the hole that you dropped from was in the center of the room. That's a strict rule, so when you're unsure where to land, you can hug a wall and be okay. I understand that this isn't the best solution, and the game doesn't tell you about it, but that's what I came up with during the jam. Levels are generated at runtime. They're a sequence of randomly chosen, predetermined layouts chained together. That helps with the "leap of faith" problem further, since skilled players will start to recognize generation patterns.
Thank you for your post! Yeah, controls seem to be people's main concern about the game, although it took me by surprise. But it's going to be a lesson for me, I'll be paying more attention to the topic next time I develop something.
Thank you for your input! I think I just got used to controls while developing, so I wasn't paying enough attention to that. Definitely should've added an alternative control scheme, especially since it doesn't take much time.
Thanks! Yeah, I already regret that I didn't put them on the start screen since there was enough space... Anyway, you could find them on the game's page!
I understand what you're saying, though the gun kick is a main mechanic of the game. Maybe a tutorial or a better level design would solve the issue. Thank you for your feedback!
Thank you for your feedback! Actually, I was planning to add an alternative control scheme but completely forgot about it over the course of development 😅
