We planned to have an online leaderboards but we did not configured it on time sadly :( However, we will include that and other features we have missed after the jam :))
it was intentional that the player is limited to move until you executed your first parry, tho I also did not anticipate the scenario if a player did not parry it at the start (as it would randomize the bullet trajectory after hitting ground ).
It was supposed to be a separate tutorial scene but we were out of time lol.
And as for the slow-mo, our first idea was the player would also get hit by his own bullets, so a slowed time would be more convenient for parrying the bullet. But after further case-testing, we just proceeded to have the player invulnerable to his own bullet (and did not remove the time-slow)
The time slow was also intended to help the player better calculate the trajectory of the bullet (and also to avoid enemies) but it was loosely implemented and did not really fine-tuned a lot.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed our game :)
very fun top-down shooter with rng mechanics (aligns well to the theme). Very enjoyable even at longer sessions!
The implementation of the limitation is a bit lackluster for me in my opinion (as it is very generalized to be a 1 time used super power/ item) in which I did not have the urge to use it as the character's base damaging tools are enough to clear out most enemies.
My only problem aside from the buttons not working as intended, is I don't quite get the functionalities of the cards (especially the first one that you'll shoot lingers to the enemy). Never get the mechanic behind that so I just spam all the cards. A tutorial/explanation would be appreciated to enforce the intended gameplay
A unique combination of gameplay mechanics that blends well into one-core gameplay!
But the controls for the platforming are quite off-putting to me, as it has a very fast acceleration and a slippery movement which causes the platforming element of the game to become much much harder and more frustrating...
There were a lot of initial plans that we laid out but unfortunately, 72-hrs was not really enough lol. But yea, maybe we'll try to expand this after the jam
Very unique game design! I love the idea of getting clues to pinpoint the correct artifact.
My only problem is the camera is too much for me, makes me dizzy. And sometimes, you still get hurt during the "entering door" animation which caused me a few restarts. Great game nonetheless!
