I apoligise in advance but I will be unable to respond to any comments after tmrw bc of school stuff
Loved it a lot! Took me a bit to get used to but it's like Getting Over It vibes and I'm all here for it!! I love the illustration LOL made me laugh as soon as I started the game
thank you very much
Super interesting mechanics! I do agree with some of the others that the controls are a bit difficult to grasp, and the game would've benefited from a tutorial of some sort. Otherwise, really cool!
Ye I’ve gotten that feedback alot, thanks for playing
What a creative game you got here. This has some potential. The controls were a little bit difficult to get used to, but great game overall. Well done!
Ye I agree, it could have a tutorial
Hey, good job! I love how you came up with something totally unique. Wish there's a good tutorial as it took me a while to get started.
ye sorry
Interesting theme, I died several times but I liked it
I love that you came up w an entirely new movement mechanic (or, at least, I hadn't encountered it before). I do agree w someone in the comments that a little tutorial would be nice just to get the hang of it but also, we had two weeks so all good. Pretty charming game really, the aesthetics and the music were nice, the mechanics unique and fun and the levels creative. Really solid entry!
TY
I found the control scheme a little unusual at first (I think a more gentle introduction with a tutorial would help a lot), but once i got the hang of it i really enjoyed it! I think the subject matter is very charming.
ye sorry, I ran out of time to add a tutorial
Most people think its the sword the knight prizes most, but this dev knows it is truly his trusty shield.
Thanks : D
an unusual idea with the controls, it took me a while to get used to it, but the overall concept is good! I found the menu splash screen amusing
Glad u liked it
Quite a creative game! I loved the unique mechanic with the shield, it reminded me of Getting over It.
Ye, it was sorta inspired by getting over it in a sense
thanks for playing
As discussed in Discord, there's a bit of a glitch with the scoreboard when first submitting your scores. I quite like the strategy you can play into with the abilities on different levels. Overall a solid submission!
Thanks ye there's that issue
Really like the duo vibe, the whole knight + shield idea is charming and stands out. The presentation is simple but works well together. Feel free to swing by my game too
I will now
So dificult platafformer bro! I can not pass, I believe that mygame was dificult but now...
I'm sorry ;( I thought the abilities made it easier
Very difficult game ngl, but still very fun and addicting good job!
Thanks
wow pretty creative idea, I remember seeing the game in it's development but it felt so much more fun to play, the controls reminded me a bit of getting over it but less ragey. I like playing every single level.
if you want something just as difficult but a completely different genre try out JANTA-9
I'll play your game now!
this game was so much fun, it made me rage a bit sometimes bcuz he moved wherever he wanted and dashed backwards but once i got used to it it was pretty fun. Pretty good game overall!
Nice, glad u had fun, i'm gonna play ur game now, right after janta
This game is really fun and interesting, but web version + multi-monitor made me ragequit.
Oh... well at least it was fun? Maybe?
I could see this becoming a super fun rage game! Cool mechanics with the shield bouncing. Nice gojo reference. The pause menu animation is slick. Keep at it!
One thing is I would like to be able to read the skills by mousing over them rather than having to click them which equips them as well. Just makes the loadout part a bit tedious. Also, I might even think a game like this doesn't need any skills to use after all. I think the bouncing mechanic would be enough as a rage game.
Ye true, but when playtesting my friends raged to much so the abilities are there to make it less frustrating and allow for some more creative levels.
Thanks for playing tho
Loving the title screen (really funny ngl lmaoooo) and mechanics. This is a fun platformer! I'd like to see a bit more tie to the theme of invincibility aside from the shield.
Great job!
Thanks for playing
Of course! Would be honored if you check our game out and leave a comment with some feedback :D
yep doing that now
