itch.io

It feels well constructed, the game continually finds small new ways to keep you invested wether it be with powerups, narrative, music, achievements, or aesthetic changes. Its simple and minimal but enough to keep me playing. 

Presumably missing sound effects, walking and jumping notably

Killing the purple duck feels a bit bad, he makes such a cute noise when he dies

Maybe the player hitbox could be made smaller, i felt i got damaged on projectiles i wasnt touching

I feel rescuing your family members could have a bit more kick to it, at first i didnt realize thats what i was doing when i got them out of their prison. Maybe play a little melody or show some text/emoticons that shows their appreciation

The  control on the mount feels maybe a bit too floaty... even the simple platforming to get the double jump took me a couple of tries but maybe that was intended

The boss battle was a fun increase in difficulty, but maybe too difficult. i was engaged for a while until i got the feeling i just couldnt beat him, i found a way to cheese trough him though (standing at the edge of the room makes it so the projectiles cant hit you) and got to the end. I noticed theres no cooldown on how often you can take damage, maybe adding post hit invulnerabilty could be enough to make the boss easier, or letting the player shoot the top projectiles. The boss was the most gameplay engaging part of the game and i enjoyed trying to beat him.

The AGDG statue at the end is cool, did not expect my sprite to appear. cheered me up. Curious to see what you do with the game next.

that gpu should work, might be because of windows 7. i'll have to do some testing

major props for struggling trough the demo for 3 hours. i did a horrible job teaching mechanics and the game was so much harder for you because you didnt know about them. you can jump/fly higher if you hold the jump button as an example.

thanks for playing trough, and for the detailed feedback!

Hey, thanks for going trough the demo, and for leaving such detailed feedback!

thanks for playing the demo! i've got plans to introduce more mechanics to add some variation. i'd also like to make the game more open world so you can travel between levels and explore a bit, but we'll see if i manage that (x

thanks for taking the time to play this, even when the game screwed you over. i definetly need to do better in teaching the mechanics and how the game should be played. that you somehow beat the portal level without knowing that holding jump lets you boost significantly farther is kinda funny, and sad cause the game is definetly designed with that in mind so you missed out on that i expect.
Lots of good ideas, i've started implementing some of them. The wall jumping thing is intresting, they way i've imlemented it is opposite of what most people would expect i think, you have to move away from the wall after touching it then jump. i feel this leads to less accidental wall jumps in a game where you're likely to bump into walls when moving around. but enough people of complained about it where i'll have to consider changing it.

thanks again for the detailed feedback, heavily appreciated

do you have a dedicated gpu? old gpu? if you're on a laptop is it using the gpu to run the game?

got to the end screen with 4 rangers and 2 mages.

this game is really great, it started slow and felt silly. but by floor 3 when you start to get more heroes in your crew it quickly gets very engaging. the balance between upgrading or acquiring more heroes works pretty well. as its hard to control a longer snake but you get more damage output. i wonder if you cant try and push the snake to be even longer, let the player decide between the trade off.  i think the difficuly should be pushed further. it was satisfying to see my rangers destroying everything but i feel like that feeling should be earned.
i'd like the gold to be auto pickuped when you clear a floor, or let the player walk up and grab it.
i feel its a shame you cant dismiss heroes from your crew, but it adds a layer of strategy that might be for the better.

it's a really great demo, i enjoyed playing it

great aesthetic and presentation. the 3d geometry and lightning is great. it controls very well.

i only played 5 levels, so take this feedback with that in mind
got stuck for a moment at the beginning because i thought "R click" meant pressing the R button on my keyboard, but you expected "right click"
i feel like i get to little time to make decisions in rewire mode,  if i wanted to do a sick combo i'd have to know what to do before hand. maybe thats the point.
the enemy ai doesnt seem to advanced, just shooting them was the simplest solution, maybe the later levels make rewire mode a must to take them down.
the end of levels didnt feel that great, it just takes you back to the menu

it's super cool though and feels great. i hope you keep refining it

great presentation, ui, graphics, text, sound, music. nothing feels off putting or awkward.

i played 3 rounds, got to 213 panels on the third try. was surprised that i progressed and got better so quickly, and it feels like theres more to learn. in the beginning i thought i would just stumble around and get lucky, but as you do you start to develop some strategies and can clearly feel yourself improving. it's a nice feeling.

updated the download once again, it works without virus/trojan warnings on my end now. let me know if you try it again and can get it working

fuck, yeah this is probably gonna take me a while to solve. if anyone wants to play it now you'd have to disable windows defender.

i updated the download, hopefully removing the false positive trojan warning. if you get a trojan warning please leave a comment.

this rules, love it

i did a crouch dive and ended up under the area where you needed to crouch, and got stuck. had to restart.
on the first mission after the tutorial, whenver i died and respawned the game was bugged and unplayable. no sound, i couldnt shoot anyone. i restarted the game and the same thing happened when i died again. i like the aesthetic, music fits nicely. but i cant really say much other than that at this time.

after fiddling about for a while i figured out how to plant some stuff, water them, and harvest them (i think). i'm not sure what the benefit of the unique control scheme is. maybe you have some plans. but it was awkward to figure out how to interact with stuff and how to use your tool (have to be holding to be using the tool right?). i wasnt sure what my objective was or what i should be doing. it was cute that i could interact with the bed and blinders though. 

got to the end in 2:47
lack of mouse sensitivity option made me switch to gamepad, which worked well. game seemingly just exits on pressing escape. maybe thats intended?
the runescape aesthetic is immedieatly grabbing. i like it. leaning into that as much as you can might be a smart idea.
the game plays well, and theres nothing off putting about the presentation or controls. but i cant say it feels unique in terms of gameplay mechanics. interested in seeing where you take the game.
