I'm gonna be honest. Because this not a full game the theme kinda off, but you still got point on that. However, what i really want to say it, the story and art style is absolutely great!
Thank you for giving the game a shot, well the point is to fight to the top of the tournament but ya there is only one fight haha, regardless i'm glad you liked some parts of it!
VERY GOOD GAME!!! , WELL DONE BRO , KEEP IT UP❣️ YOU CAN ALSO TRY MY GAME AS WELL , HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY❣️
The amount of work you put into all the art for your games deserves more recognition!
Thank you for trying out the game and for the kind words! I'm still pretty new at digital art but i do my best every time, comments like this really encourage me to keep up.
The visuals in this game are very unique, the gameplay is fun and the story is clear and intriguing. Great submission!
Thank you for giving the game a shot, have a good one!
Different and fun, congratulations :)
Thank you for giving the game a shot, have a great day!
Nice game, with a great narration. It sucks that it has just one fight. But I won, my fists pack quite punch in them haha. Great Job!
Thank you for trying out the game and for kind words! Keep that spirit up i will for sure update this game, have a great day! :)
Your game has a visual style that really caught my attention — it has something intriguing, and the narration is very nice too. I would probably choose a different kind of music, even though the current one isn’t bad; maybe changing it during combat or even earlier could improve the atmosphere.
I kindly ask you to try my game as well and let me know what you think. I had some issues because I accidentally deleted the original file, thinking I could still make changes during the voting phase. I had to reupload everything on itch.io. You can find it here: https://robylogic-71.itch.io/the-starbound-butterfly2
The voting is still on the main submission page. Thank you very much!
Thank you for giving the game a shot i'm glad you liked it! As the music goes i was trying to recreate those gritty guitar sounds you would hear on the old sega genesis games you can find some guitar tracks from genesis games and compare, when i was making it i was thinking it was a perfect fit for my game.
Upon closer evaluation, the music actually fits the game well, although the background track might be a bit too similar
Yes i reused some tracks i didn't have time to make more that is true.
I like the dialogue
Thank you for trying out my game i'm glad you liked it, have a great day!
I like the art style
Thank you for giving the game a shot, have a good one!
The hand-drawn art style is genuinely one of the most unique and charming things in this entire jam — in an age of AI art it really stands out that every frame was drawn by hand. The intro and story cutscenes are peak, and Adam's character had me invested right away. The corner pinning mechanic where you can wail on the opponent against the wall is a really fun fighting game touch. Can't wait to see this expanded with the planned 4 opponents — the foundation is solid and the vision is clear. Feel free to check out my sky platformer too 😊
Thank you for giving the game a shot and i'm glad you enjoyed it. This game is for sure getting updated and refined so stay tuned for more if you are interested :) have a great day!
There's no draw. We both died, and it displayed 'You Win' and 'You Lose' at the same time. Love the game. Nice work!
Yeah sorry about that someone already pointed that out to me i uploaded the wrong version where i forget to disable hitboxes on player and opponent when someone is defeated. Regardless thank you for giving the game a shot and have a good one!
No worries at all. I still had a lot of fun playing it. Looking forward to the fixed version! 👍
The game has a really cool story, the level-based fighting system is very good, and the art is original. It's a shame there aren't more opponents; I hope to play more of your projects and get an update on this one. Good luck and keep up the good work.
Please forgive any grammatical or spelling errors; I'm using a translator.
Thank you for your kind words, as i said before i was having a hard time to make the opponent work so i ran out of time to draw more of them or implement multiple rounds. Thanks for playing and have a good day!
Loved the cutscenes to drive the story. But I do admit the gameplay was way too fast and ended too fast haha, maybe another more tougher opponent would be great. But overall, very nice.
Yes i struggled a lot to make the opponent do stuff by the time i did i had no time to draw more opponents or implement at least this fight to be 2 rounds or something. I appreciate the kind words and thank you for trying out the game, have a good day!
A comic artist “delayed” by game development, BTW I really like your art and the story!
Yes the cutscene took a lot of time and so did the gameplay that's why the game is short, thank you for giving the game a shot and for the kind words! :)
Nailed it with the implementing the theme. And loved the overall gameplay of this game:D
Thank you for trying out the game and for the kind words, glad you liked it have a good day! :)
i like the fact that it you have to fight like the concept it is another perspective of to the top i really like that
Yep, gotta fightt to the to top :) thank you for giving the game a shot !
I love how you can just pin the NPC to the wall and bully them. Some see it as a bug I see it as a hidden feature. Love the art. Great work, and wish you the best!
I am very glad someone found that satisfying, in fighting games being in the corner is a disadvantage and i wanted you to be able to just wail on your on opponent while he is pinned to the wall. Thank you for trying out the game i hope you enjoyed cheers!
rated, nice art. If you're not a fan of the windbreaker anime you probably will be if you try it
Sure thing i like a good watch, thank you!
I like the concept and the art style, good job!!
It's a shame you took a lot of time to build a good intro instead of working on the gameplay, I want to do more fights!!! Keep going :)
Thank you for playing, yes i am sorry more fights weren't implemented by the time i figured out how to make an enemy i ran out of time to draw more fighters, but if you are interested i will update this game for sure, and thank you for the kind words cheers!
Haha you let me with blue balls. The fight was very chessy but I got a laugh.
Very stylish, good work!
Thank you for giving the game a shot, i'm glad you liked it!
