The concept is nice, and the graphics are stellar, however the controls are a little finicky, and the gameplay a little too simple and unsatisfying. But again, the graphics are stellar and almost carry the game, so in the end good job

I liked the artstyle and idea - reminded me "Journey of the Prairie King" in some way.

I also liked that I could upgrade my ship though I wish boss was a bit harder, since I upgraded myself too much by beating all level =D

Good game, guys!

Thanks for the kind words! =)
Ye, boss fight is a bit unbalanced, hopefully we'll get it right in post-jam polish =)

Thanks for playing our game! =)

The boss fight was a bit underwhelming, and some of the hit boxes felt a little off, but otherwise great game!

Quantum Overload

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

Thanks for checking out our game! Sadly we ran out of time before we could balance the boss fight, however, in post-jam, we'll see about getting it balanced =)

Great art!

Thank you for the nice comment! Our artist worked really hard to achieve our vision and did such a great job

I like that this kind of feels like both a survivors-like and a bullet hell game. I like the setting a lot (big fan of pirates) and the art and music and sound design really brought it together.

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

Thank you for the kind words! We did our best to get it to feel as uniform as possible, and it makes our day reading comments like this =)

EnophiaSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

It's a great and a mini rogue-like, survivors game. It has such a potential in my opinion, the artstyle fits the gameplay. Musics match to theme. Would like to see the game in the future with new features. Nice work, Good Luck!

Thanks for checking out our game! And thanks for the nice comments =)

Nice! I think the difficulty curve needs a adjustment, but I did find myself playing multiple times. Props to whoever made the thumbnail, one of the best in the whole jam.

Submitted

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

Thanks for checking out our game! Love to hear you replayed! We deffo need to get some balancing done in the after-jam polish. Our artist RunnyBabbit worked really hard on the art, and ofc he made the thumbnail as well, we couldn't be happier =)

Really cool graphics!

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

Thank you so much! Our artist worked really hard to get it all done in time and we couldn't be happier.

I like the game but the boss fight was the easiest part^^.

Submitted

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

haha, ye, that's the main gripe people have, sadly we ran out of time to balance it out.

Thanks for checking out our game!

The music is perfect.

Thank you so much!

BrianMathSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

Very cool game, but the boss was too easy unfortunately. Talking about art I really liked the songs and sprites, very nice. I’d play this game more, but I found the level selection a little weird to understand at first

Submitted

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

Thank you very much for your feedback! Ye, we just ran out of time before we got to do any balancing. Hopefully we'll get some done in the after-jam polish.

CryptidGroveSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

The game was cool! Specially the enemies and ship assets, they look quite pleasing to the eyes! The game itself is fun, typical "wave defense" with levels, if there's anything to point out we'd move the ship's bullet spawn slightly closer to the ship because when enemies are too close bullets go over them, but appart from that small detail it is quite polished! Congrats!

Gilbert's Anxiety Induced Flood Contingency Plan

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

Your insight is very much appreciated! In after-jam polish we're gonna do something about that bullet spawn.

Thanks for checking out our game =)

2xP_GamesSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

cool little game! the boss was a bit to easy when you got upgrades, but hard to get balance on such a short time :) great work, i liked it!

Submitted

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

Ye, the balancing was a concern, but sadly ran out of time. Thanks for checking out our game =)

2xP_GamesSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

yea 7 days is not much, i know the feeling :D

FreludeSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

Nice twinstick shooter. A bit too hard for me.
It wood be better that the bullets starts from the boat, remove the arrow, and customize the mouse cursor instead.
The navigation on the menu feels a bit weird.
I like the music, and the graphics, perhaps some postprocessing will enhance it
Well done.

Troll-LydDeveloper2 years ago

Thanks for the feedback! we're planning on some post polish after the jam, so we'll keep this in mind =)

Thanks for checking out our game =)
