First. Those visuals are C.L.E.A.N. A.F.
I can see the amount of work u put into this game.
The vfx, sfx, music. They all are perfect!
But speaking gameplay wise. The controls were hard to get at first. But easy to learn but very hard to master
I felt like the attack ability was kinda weak? Like I could attack a flock of enemies but as soon as I do, Im in the middle of them and they attack hard. Their ai is pretty good at grouping up too so not the best match
Maybe some i-frames after an attack or a slight knockback to nearby enemies could fix that issue?
But with that said, the revive mechanic already helps a ton with that flaw. Iff u do die, u get a second chance to return and fight (Reminds me of sekiro) and I like how after reviving all the enemies get huge knockback!
Btw. The game is MUCH more fun when I know the spells, I only read the description after my first playthrough and that really made a difference!
Id love to see a tutorial level/ a simple control menu for that
I hope u work on this game a bit more, it has some great foundation ready and even most of the work already done. Just some few tweaks, maybe more enemy/map variety and boom. A steam release?
OMG THE POLISH IS INSANE
could easily be the winning game, gl pookie <3
Absolutely amazing you deserve first place for sure! 👏👏👏
What can I say? I’ve tried 13 games from the jam so far, and yours is the best one.
Well done — you have got:
Great music
Great sound effects
Great visual feedback
Great art
The only thing I think you should improve after the jam is how you introduce the chants to the player. But honestly, you could turn this into a full amazing game.
I'm giving you a follow!!!
good idea!
WOw. The Controls were AWSOME. the music was a rlly good touch and the overall concept was SICKK. rlly loved it. im rating 5 stars in almost every category. The Art In This Game Is RLLY nice. keep up the good work man . I Love this. js felt u couldve given more detail about a few mechanics so we know how to use them.
Very Vampire Survivors-esque. The concept behind this game was absolutely awesome, and it was implemented pretty well. Also, the music BANGS.
Absolutely loving the visuals and the concept. The control scheme is really unique and fun to play with.
If you decide to develop this further I would like to see death feel a little more consequential
We really liked the concept and the gameplay. The music and the sound were also really fitting. A spell explanation would have been nice. We did not understand what the "authority" spell does, and reviving is a bit too easy, maybe it should add a key input per death? But overall a really nice and fun game.
i like this idea, reviving spell was kinda simplified cuz i thought people would make mistakes under all the pressure which drains your mana faster resulting in faster game over
fun and beautiful game, but a bit hard to play, in a good way!!
