Sadly controller didn't work so I had to use keyboard & mouse, which didn't work well, but I loved this so much I didn't care! I wish this was still being worked on.
I really appreciate it, thanks a lot! I'm glad you like it <3 I definitely want to experiment more with the first person + third person gameplay in other projects
Edit: just noticed there seems to be a bug and the player cannot get items! I'll work now on fixing it.
Really enjoyable experience! I loved the ambience and mechanics. It's great how you have to think about what's behind every block to know if you can pull them! Looking forward to the full game.
that can happen if you tested a tile you already tested, but I'm not aware if that mechanic is bugged! I'll test a little and see if I manage to replicate that
i'd love to make an mmo with this thematic... the game was kinda inspired in the feel i get from some mmos! yeah, the jester suit had some culling issues, it's not Wine :-)
Thanks you so much for such a long and detailed comment! I'm considering the things you said a lot. I liked how the lack of up/down angle made me feel when replaying the game, so I experimented with it in the expanded/remade version to allow the player to have a better angle while still restricting them a little.
About the walking speed, I increased it for the expanded version and added a way to fly faster horizontally after collecting enough orbs to "level up", which advances the growth of the wings (another feature). Also, since the new map is bigger, I had to tweak the gravity, flying and jump height a lot to make controlling the fairy more dynamic and comfortable! The fairy feels a lot lighter, maybe like a bug would.
I know what you mean when you say you are a masochist gamer, haha. A lot of my game design choices come from the idea that part of the experience also comes from learning to handle "jank" or mechanics that work in a very specific and not intuitive way. I enjoy those things in games so I often add them consciously. Of course, I always expect people to criticize them and I think that's valid and helps me understand better what I want to keep and what I want to improve/make less tedious.
Thanks a lot for this, it always helps me move forward and like what I do!
