A nice little platformer with cool art. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks. Please try another platformer I am developing—https://gd.games/phantom-games/vortex-valley

Good platformer, I think that you should make the controls more apparent, since I initially missed them and only learned that I should hit the boxes from the side way later.

Developer

Can you tell me how to make it clear? and thanks for the review.

Submitted

I would recommend  changing the colors and positioning of the instructions, or give a quick hint they are available, also during the game you could make some time of sign on the sides of the blocks, showing they can be hit

Developer (1 edit)

I have colored the side border of the box red. It is available in the latest version on gd.games.  https://gd.games/phantom-games/rico-1.

I have added instructions in the help area.

I love a platformer games and loved yours.

I did notice the coin block don't work if you hit from the bottom. You have to hit from the side. Not sure if it's intended tho but just though would mention it.

Nothing else I can say that hasn't already been said or suggested.

Good effort 👍

Keep up the grind.

Platformer always fun and when you can use a slime, that's extra points. If you let me give some tips so you can make a better experience.

- More gamejuice, like screen shake, dramatic zooms, borders in enemies, that kind of stuff, make the game visually stunning even if graphics aren't so details.
- Don't underestimate the camera, which can be a powerful ally for the experience, move from point to point so the player feels like he is in this world, not that he owns the world.
- This is for your character, He is a slime so make it bobble a little bit and more cute (Because the robots are cute)
- When you use assets try to make theme more cohesive. That give a extra polish to you game.

I feel happy you are open to criticism, (If not you can ignore all the bulletpoint and Have a nice day) I hope you can keep growing in game dev world. Keep it up. 

Developer

Thanks for your suggestions. I will try to implement them.

It took me a while for me to figure out the controls, but once I did, I had a good time beating the game. 

Developer(+1)

Could you recommend me some easier controls?

Submitted(+1)

Loved playing as a slim and shooting at enemy. Good game. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the rating!

Submitted(+1)

Simple and fun! You might want to tweak the keybinds, but overall, great job!

Developer(+1)

Could you recommend some controls?

Submitted

First, ensure you disable the default keybinds; I noticed I could move the player slightly using the ‘D’ key. For movement, sticking to all-arrow controls works well for these types of games. Use the up arrow for jumping and consider adding a mechanic to let players lower themselves faster with the down arrow. This change would make the movement feel less floaty and more responsive.

I loved your game, I would love your feedback on my car racing game too. 

Developer

I rated, could be more orignal.

Submitted(+1)

This game reminds me of a parallel universe where "Super Mario" is a bacterium! Haha, I really enjoyed the game—great job!

Developer

Thanks for the rating!

Submitted

Can you change jump to x and fire to z? I didn't like the awkward controls.

Submitted(+1)
