Great game! I really liked the metroidvania aspect and I thought the music was great!
The sprawling levels is quite cool. Getting the maze-like feel without it being tedious or too challenging is difficult. As soon as I figured out Q is shoot it, it was a lot better experience. Well done!
BTW there was a bug with firefox where the game went larger than the fullscreen and couldn't be adjusted.
The pixel art is very cute. Metroid Vania like is really a collosal work for a game jam. I just can't respawn when I die, don't know if it's a bug. Otherwise GG !
Thank you for your feedback. Yeah the thing with the respawn again. I encountered a bug with mouse controls in the game and thats why i removed them completely in game. somehow they still workk in the main menu. if you want to select a button use the arrow or WS and enter to click it. Thanks for playing it.
Making a Metroid Vania in a week is no easy feat but you guys did great! The art is very cute and the boss fight caught me off guard. Although I did get a bug where on returning to the arena the boss got stuck outside and I could easily shoot him through the wall. Other than that it was pretty clean and the movement felt good. Good job!
Yeah it was quite a hustle. (resulting in not much sleep😑) but i think it was worth it. Well for the art i like focused on making everything simple and easy to add new things. thats why i left shading completely away. And thanks for pointing out the bug. I'll have a look at it.
Short and sweet little metroidvania! I enjoyed shooting things, and seeing the victory screen felt rewarding. Good job! Extra respect for making everything from scratch <3
Wow thank you so much. yeah short and still fun was the plan to avoid scope creep. yk all my other gamejam games werent finished because i couldn't stop adding mors stuff. Thanks for yur feedback and for playing my game
The controls are bit unclear and killing enemies from ledge is difficult.
The drawings are amazing and looks very well made and clean!
Thank you for your feedback. Yeah the controls😣. Well i used unity and in order to make sure that every UI Menu has a first selected Button, i had to change the first selected object of my event system every time a menu is opened. idk what it was but it like disabled mouse control in general. thats why you cant use the mouse to click buttons. please use enter. but the main menu can handle the mouse input but idk why. But still thanks for playing it. i hope you were able to enjoy it anyways.
Very fun. Level design was really good, even though the environments are similar looking, you can start to get a feel of it to get around.
Gameplay was very solid, I really enjoyed it! Oh, and the boss was pretty hard, sometimes you get cornered between it and the falling rocks.
Yeah my words. While testing the game I had the feelingthat it was a bit to hard but my friend is like the biggest tryharder on earth and he wanted the fight to be even more difficult. I'm gonna reduce the amount a bit. But Thanks for your Feedback. I'm glad that you enjoyed playing it.
Very fun, good level design. I liked the shotgun jump especially. It's just a little rough around the edges, specifically I couldn't respawn for some reason, wanted keep playing but eventually you can only retrace your steps so much. But you clearly have a good sense for how to make something fun, its just fixing up some of the rough corners!
Also pro-tip, since I think you're unity, if you use a sprite atlas for the tileset or hook up a pixel perfect camera you can fix some of that pixel tearing. Gives it a nice feel :)
Thank you for your feedback nad for the advice! Yeah that problem with the respawn button. It looks like it only works with controler. I have to take a look at it. If you want to try experience the full game i would reccommend playing with a controler but if you dont have one wait till the end of the jam. I'll be uploading a version with major bugfixes. Thanks again for the advice i'll have a look at it.
Really enjoyed exploring every corner and figuring out where to go and what each new ability does :D
Thank you for your Feedback. Yeah I wanted to let the player feel in charge of where to go. Thats why i picked Metroidvania as a Genre.
Hey! I had a good time playing your game! I especially thought the controls were really smooth and the enemy designs were really well done. I did encounter some bugs with the respawn mechanic (couldn't press it on mac firefox), but I worked around it by just restarting the whole game each time I died, but it was unfortunate because I lost all my progress! xD I wish I could've heard that boss track. Overall, great job guys!
Thank you so much for your feedback. I'll definetly try to find the bug. Did you played with Keyboard or Gamepad?
Keyboard! Using my mouse to click. It works on the other ui buttons, but when I need to respawn I couldn't seem to get it to trigger.
Okay thats weird 🤔. Wait i think i have to try it myself.
Okay so it seems to be a problem with the mouse because when i tried it with my Controler it worked. If you want to give the game another try...I'll upload a version with some major bugfixes after the jam. Until then, you can try it with a controler if you have one. Thanks for pointing this out. I was in quite a rush to finish it in time😅
Thanks so much for looking into it! I'll also give it a go on a different computer, but don't worry! I really enjoyed playing your game and I know we all were pressed for time hahaha
Thanks. Yeah the Deadline😣 Final boss of every Game jam haha. I had like 3 hours of sleep today trying to finish the gam in time.😑
If you'd like to try it again. I've changed a little bit. now you can navigate through the ui via the arrow keys and submit with Enter.
