Totally agree! :D
Thank you so much!
I know I've already said it, but the idea of a cursor didn't even occur to us until now!
So, hearing back from you and others that it's needed has been SUPER helpful to us!

I also agree that we should make Audio Visual Feedback our number-one priority for the next update!

We did try out your game.
There are two of us here, but admittedly my typing skills were slow, so I used a few templates and picked one I thought suited a specific game best.

I'm really sorry if it came across as disingenuous. 
I will be more than happy to give you more feedback on your submission or any other game you've created :)

We fully agree with you! :D

I know it might sound silly, but the idea of a demo cursor didn't occur to us until now ^_^b

That's why we really value your feedback so much!
It's been super helpful and we really appreciate that you took the time to play our game!

Absolutely!
I know it might sound funny, but we didn't even think about a cursor until now. >_<b

That's why I'm so happy you took the time to play and share your thoughts!
It's really super valuable to us!

You got a really good point!
I think it's worth balancing the game more and making sure it's not harsh but rather a fun experience :D

Thank you so much for playing and taking the time to share your feedback!
It really means the world to us!

That's a great idea!
I totally agree that there should be a pointer to help make it easier to know where you're aiming :D

Thing you so much for sharing your feedback!
It's super valuable to us! 

Absolutely!
You're spot on!
We totally agree with you! We're going to make audiovisual feedback our number one priority for further updates from here on in! :D

Thank you so much for taking the time to play, your feedback genuinely means the world to us! 

Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to play!
It really means the world to us and we hope we can keep marking something even better for you :D

You are correct!
I unfortunately don't have a cursor yet, so I will be ensuring I add one :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to play our game and share your feedback!
We super appreciate it!

Thank you so much!
Yes, I absolutely agree with you!

I'm going to make adding sound my number one priority next :D

I just wanted to drop by and give a shoutout to all the amazing work you've put into this GameDevTV GameJam submission. 

Seriously, you guys rock!

I recently submitted my game for the jam, and while it's still a work in progress, I'd be over the moon if you could take a moment to check it out and maybe even leave a rating. You can find it here: https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-jam-2023/rate/209

Hey there, I just wanted to drop by and spread some positive vibes! 

I've been checking out the games from this jam, and let me tell you, you are rocking it! 

The amount of talent and creativity on display is seriously impressive.

I'd like to also introduce my own game submission for the jam. It's still a work in progress, but I believe it's got something special going on. 

If you have a moment, I'd be super grateful if you could check it out and leave a rating a

Thank you so much!
Yes, my apologies, it's still really barebones ^_^b
I'm going to prioritize adding some instructions in the game ASAP!

Thank you for playing and sharing your feedback!
I really appreciate it!

What an amazing retro vibe!
I love that you even added a boot animation!
That's next-level attention to detail!
Your game is absolutely inspirational and I'm amazed by every aspect of it!

You should be so incredibly proud of this and I cannot wait to see what you'll create next!!! 

Really loved playing this!
I love a good runner and this helped scratch an itch I've had for a long time!
You've done an amazing job!

Absolutely LOVE the art style of the sprites!
You totally caught me by surprise at the start there!
No spoilers, but that was a brilliant way to start!

I was getting dark souls vibes with the "you died" message on the screen.
I really enjoyed playing this :D

Who doesn't love a good tower defense game? :D
This is one of my favorite genres and I had an absolute BLAST playing this game!

I absolutely love the animations!
It's such a charming puzzle game and I love the idea of shifting between a spirit form and seeing things that weren't there before to help solve puzzles!
It's really mindblowing that you were able to create something like this in such a short time!

This was excellent!
I really enjoyed playing it!

"What's wrong? Blake? Blaaaaake!"
LOVE the MGS vibes!

Really love side-scrolling shooters like this!
You did a great job creating a fun and challenging experience!

What an absolutely brilliant puzzle game!
I'm blown away by the depth and amazing sprite art!
Some of these puzzles were real mind benders, I'm astonished that you were able to create these in such a short time!
Absolutely amazing!

I love the mechanics!
The idea of using your past bodies to help advance in the game is an absolute genius and I would love to see something like this fleshed out into a full game!

The animation is so smooth and the character is an absolute pleasure to control! 
It feels great the way it just glides across the floor!

Thank you so much for your amazingly detailed feedback! :D
To know that I made a game that was originally not enjoyable more enjoyable means a TON to me!
It's super important to me to create games that are fun and easy to play!

Indeed, you're on the money with the death mechanic! 
I wanted to originally create some with a similar mechanic to dark souls, but I didn't feel this suited the theme best, so instead, I wanted to find a way to rather encourage players to die in order to score points.
I felt this combination suited the theme best. 
So I added blue cubes as the "secret" to dying without dying :)

Honestly, I think you found a bug! 
That's something I'll be taking a much closer look into, it's possible I might have messed up my logic in one line of code, and you found an elite hidden cheat code, that even I didn't know about  >_<b

That's exactly what makes your feedback so highly valuable!
I really appreciate that you took the time to let me know about your experience and the bug! 
It really means a lot to me and I'm going to be sure to use it to improve further! 

OH, I loved Megaman too!, I'm going, to be honest, it was 100% the inspiration, so I'm overjoyed that a fellow fan picked up on it! XD
That's a brilliant idea!
I'm going to be sure to prioritize creating and adding AI enemies as soon as possible!
To be honest the thought honestly didn't even cross my mind, so I'm super grateful that you took the time to give me this feedback I'm going to make sure I use it to improve this game and my future games further :D

I'm absolutely over the moon to hear that you enjoyed playing my game!
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback and support!
It's absolutely amazing to receive such high praise and it genuinely means the world to me! :D

I've absolutely thrilled that I was able to capture that nostalgic feeling for you again! :D
I also remember playing astroids for hours on end, and I've never quite lost my obsession with it.
Honestly knowing my game helped someone relive that, is all I could honestly hope for :D

Thank you so much for your feedback and support, it really means the world to me!

I absolutely LOVE your feedback! :D
This has been REALLY helpful!
I've already added air breaks to help try and improve control because it's important to me to create a game that players feel is fun and easy to control.
I'll be sure to also go ahead and look into creating AI enemies that actually give the player a reason to move!
That's a brilliant idea that frankly didn't even cross my mind!

I must agree some more music would also help build the atmosphere, so I'm going to make sure I sit down and create a new track for the gameplay level itself too.

Thank you so much again for all your feedback!
It's been more valuable than gold to me and I sincerely appreciate it!

Awesome, I'm so happy to hear you liked it!
One of my primary focuses was to create a game that felt good to play and well balanced! 
I've been getting a lot of feedback that the mechanics are not clearly explained and I sincerely apologize for it.
I promise I'll do better next time to help make sure the mechanics are more clearly explained.
Thank you so much again for your feedback and support!

OH!
That's amazing!
Thank you so much!
I'm going to check it out for sure :D

My sincerest apologies for the background!
I've been getting a lot of feedback that it's making players feel dizzy or sick.
I promise I'll do better next time and do all I can to prevent it!

Thank you so much for your feedback, it really means the world to me!

Woop woop! :D
That was what I was hoping for!
I personally really miss those times and really wanted to work hard to try and recapture that nostalgia for everyone playing it!

Thank you again for your feedback, it really means the world to me!

Thank you so much!
That was exactly what I wanted!
My number 1 goal was to recreate those memories we have of childhood weekends spent in arcades, spending every cent we had playing that 1 game we loved.
Thank you again for your feedback!

Thank you so much!
Yes, the base game was made over the weekend, though I must be honest, I patched in a few details after hours over the week when I had time to spare.
For example, the charge shot and blue cubes were only added later on, and the camera was changed to help make it more playable and easy :)
The original was sadly too hard, and I wanted to avoid frustrating people, and rather focus on creating a more enjoyable experience.

My sincerest apologies for the background.
I've been getting a ton of feedback that it's making people feel sick or dizzy.
I promise I will do better next time and I'm grateful to everyone for pointing out ways to improve it or the issues it's caused!
Thank you so much again for your feedback, it really means the world to me!

Thank you so much for trying out my game! :D
I'm over the moon that you about your feedback!
It's exactly what I wanted and I'm glad you found it intuitive!

I promise I will play your game too and provide both feedback and a rating! :D

Reading your comment gave me goosebumps!
Feedback like yours is the reason I love developing games!
There's nothing I want more than creating a fun and easy to enjoy experience!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback, it genuinely means the world to me!

You make a very good point! 
I agree, that there's room for improvement and I'm grateful that you took the time to point it out and also leave feedback on the points you enjoyed!
It's really important to me to make a shooter that's fun in every way possible and I promise I'll work hard to improve those points for my next one!

I absolutely LOVE the idea of a break function!
That's sheer brilliance!
My sincerest apologies for the background, I've gotten a lot of feedback that it's not great and I promise I'll do better next time!

Your feedback has honestly been worth more to me than gold!
I'm really thankful that you took the time to let me know how I can improve and I promise I'll do better next time! :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
