Hi, is it allowed to submit a game that was previously entered into another game jam? I plan to spend this month improving and expanding the game, so the final submission will be different from the original entry.
It’s pretty ambitious to tackle an RPG, and I respect the effort. The character pixel art is fantastic, but I found the overworld a bit confusing to navigate at first. There were also some boundary issues—I was able to go out of bounds in certain areas.
In the story, I sided with the Eelbloods and managed to defeat the Naidne king, returning his head to the Eelblood leader. However, after that, I couldn't board the ship, which left me stuck. I also couldn't find the Spymaster or the Overseer, so I wasn’t sure if I had missed something or if they weren’t implemented yet.
The battle system has a lot of potential, especially if it leans further into tactical gameplay. It would be great to see how it evolves. Looking forward to future updates!
Metroid-esque intro... I'm in! (This was also one of my ideas for a game but it seemed to ambitious for my skill level) So glad to see someone implement it as finely as you did!
The game oozes with cuteness. I loved being able to pose behind the cardboard cutouts.
Really cool! I love how you can run backward while shooting—that's a great touch (something I didn’t implement myself, so my player stays still while shooting). The track is an absolute jam too! Having 'W' as jump threw me off, though. I would keep dashing when I meant to jump, so I appreciate the controls option in the menu.
Thank you for the excellent feedback. I will address these issues once voting for the jam is over. A key should be dropped when you reach 0 enemies, allowing you to open the door. It may have been lost in the initial text as you pointed out. and indeed the potions drop too much, this was accidentally left in from when I was testing - should be a one-line fix.
Nice little game. I found all the stones and had one hell of a time finding my way back to the pillars. I imagine this would be like getting lost in a cave - all the corridors start looking the same after a while. I like the sound design with the ominous feeling as shadows get closer.
I like the idea and I think this could be a lot of fun with some added polish. I would get stuck on walls when jumping into them. Not sure if this was intentional or not - cats are extremely good climbers after all. If it was, then I think a wall jump would be more satisfying. The background is cool. If you gave it a parallax effect it would look even better. Meow mechanic was funny; maybe make it so that meowing gets the dog's attention - kind of like the pebble.
I've had various complaints about some platforms being too high but this is the first one mentioning not being able to progress. Did you change the level generation settings at all? It might be because of that. It's still experimental. Using the default settings should make it playable. Either way, I'll look into it and I appreciate the feedback. ♥
Fun game. I'm in love with the pixelated dash animation. I found out the shadows don't hurt you so I would ride them around sometimes to help me reach higher areas. ☺
I had fun with this one. It was a bit confusing at first but eventually got the hang of it. Excellent use of the theme and the art is killer. Great job.
I will add a magic sound for the next update after voting is done. The high platforms are something that multiple people have complained about and I'm still trying to work that out. Glad you had fun.
Thank you so much ♥ I like your game too. I was orginally wanting to do something kind of similar but I couldn't figure out the lighting. The music can be found from these creators:
