XD tried to move with wasd, definated helped abit , but somehow it get bit distracting and caused a few unwanted death at times(bump into monster etc.
Btw , as I was replaying with moving the charater, the slow down time can be shown as you cutting of the monsters one by one(so the more you kill the longer the animation will be thus more time to plan on next strike.) You will still be able to move your mouse or even click on the very next location while the animation is playing!
It might be cool to make health as part of your energy too , so that you only have one resource to juggle around(and healing pick ups are much more needed which push player to venture out to darkness) perhaps even add in doom style where enemy will drop pickups at higher rate when your energy gets low!
Any way , cool take on the only one color concept. I made a one color game too : https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/460289
This is so good!! only flaw is that the movement gets "clunky?" near your dead body. I understand that you aint suppose to be able to protect all around your own body from a single point so there is some kind of collision added in . But it hurts the movement which make it super hard to move around and you can still somewhat swing and hit all angle (with super awkward control,everywhere else was so smooth and nice) ._.
Love the introduction of teaching player the control.
I saw the temporally slow down of time , think this concept could be expanded abit more so that the more monster you kill in one strike ,you get longer time of "zen" mode where time slow down to aim for another multi-hit ( and it help eliminate the sudden death where before you are able to make nxt strike , a monster creeps up to you or even spawn right beside you)
There was a similar game (Only On(c)e) on this jam where each button can only be press down once, while their twist is that multiple key can be press at once or release at different time to create different movement. yours have much more added gimmicks and way better art style. The 2 game combine might be wonderful.
Yah is just a quick putting things tgt after "stealing" the idea of only having one bullet XD . was thinking about whole thing being a small maze with a few walls (to bounce bullet) , a player control character (to shoot the 1 bullet , and follow with dodging enemy and bullets) . perhaps a end game boss after a certain score or etc.
