some feedback/criticism

  • cursor is a bit hard to aim clicking on the UI buttons doesnt match at times, i would suggest a different design
  • fonts have a wierd gray outline which isnt too pleasing to see
  • game isnt pixel accurate, this type of artstyle would definitely benefit from having each pixel be accurate to the resolution
  • additional visual effects like ur character firing an attack towards the enemies. considering how simple the gameplay is, the visuals really need to stand out somehow.
  • make ur character move about and being animated while u cast ur spell
  • game looks empty, more decor and art would be nice

Nice concept! Really enjoyed it! The mechanic was original <3

Incredible! Nice Game!

It took me a lot of hard work and I even got sick because I didn’t rest. Although, it’s all worthy because people liked it and they showed their appreciation through comments. Thanks!!!! :D

At first I was like "this game is easy, how hard it can be?" until the big guy came with the three arrows. Very nice game. I like the art, it looks cute.

Developer

Thanks I’m not good at art but I liked how it ended up looking 😄. And yes, the game starts easy but then becomes harder. Thanks again for playing it :D

Solid! I like that the challenge ramps up, the insta-death is brutal but it makes it challenging and addictive

Developer

Thanks!. It took a long time for me to polish. I'm so impressed that many people played it. Thanks again! :D

image.png Loved it. Thanks for making it, very interesting use of the mechanic, only had a very minor complaint about the killing the closest enemy vs just seemingly a random one from anywhere. Probably my favorite game.

a great concept. Would also be cool to chain kills with a single swipe. Would love to see it into a full game

Developer(+1)

I'm actually thinking about making it into a full game. Maybe and just maybe i will make it a full game, but not soon. Thanks for the feedback :D

The game is really fun and I like how hard it gets the higher you go I love the challenge well done

Submitted

I like the game its really good but sometimes I do Other enemies arrow but game is deleted random enemy Because of that I died. And maybe added more visual effects.

Developer(+1)

because supposedly your attack goes straight to the closest enemy. Thanks a lot

Really cool game essential but effective! I had an adrenalin rush after I hit 1000 points. The visuals and the sfx are clean and clear and together they boost the overall experience. I would like to see more enemies and shapes to draw in the future, well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the comment. It’s really hard to get to 1000 pts you did a really great job 👏.  I wanted to add more enemies and figures I wanted to add a shield that was supposed to be break drawing a circle

Absolutely love it. It all blends very well together, the art style with the music with the mechanics. It feels very polished aswell and runs flawless. Amazing job!

Developer

Thanks it took us a lot of work. We're glad that people enjoyed our game

Thank you for rating our game, I was the creator of the sfx and music, thank you for your positive appreciation!
