Nice game,  more sounds for when you kill an enemy and would feel more satisfying to play. Still had fun and played for a while !   Good job

It’s a really fun and well done games but some more sfx could make it better I still like it tho. Pls play and rate my game if u have time 

Submitted(+1)

It's a good premise and quite addicting but some enemy variety and additional attacks would do wonders, still a good work.

unique grafic. but one needs something for orientation

Submitted(+1)

It's a pretty great game. Very unique one at that. Well done. I would say the killing should have some sound and a better game feel of the robots. Otherwise, well done.

Please play and rate our game.

That's a good point, I should definitely add hit sounds and effects to the robots, I appreciate the feedback! Thanks for playing!

I can’t wait for the roguelike update 
I would 100% play this all day if it gets added!

Developer(+1)

Fantastic! It's already patched and waiting to launch after the jam!

i like the game and the concept of using souls to destroy the robots then it got a little addicting and i don't know how much i played  it for

Developer

Awesome, I'm glad you liked it!

ohh boy what a game it is... thats so nice however im not able to make it so far cause i suck ofc.. but this game is definitely making its place somewhere.. i don't have anything to recommend on this considering my game just sucks and iv not much experience as a gamedev but as a player i love it;0

(and yeah u rated my game 2 days earlier but i was busy but now iv finally  played ur game and loved it)

Developer(+1)

You definitely don't suck! You delivered a smooth-running game in only 3 days, that's impressive by itself!

i wish to see  this game where it focus more on summon and create summon-hell rather than spell-hell/bullet-hell, i love the skelly, i hope they go far

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the feedback, and I agree! What I originally had planned (and I'm going to work on) has much more emphasis on summons and other... unique necromancer abilities, so it's validating to hear similar thoughts!

After playing the game for a little and getting to wave... 56392?!?! My final opinions on this game are:

The concept and idea for this game is actually really cool! Destroying robots with souls and using these souls to revive the dead to help you sounds like a very cool game idea and you should definitely keep expanding on it, i would love to see where it ends up! I will say however that this version of the game is really repetitive and doesn't offer much content, and i might just be dumb but i don't really see where the theme applies here, what's the top you're reaching exactly? I also like the pixel art you've added, it's simple but it gets the job done and hey, as long as no ai is involved then anything will be good to me! I don't have much to say about the audio, it's alright!

Overall this is a really good foundation for an awesome future game and you should definitely keep working on it once this is over, I would love to see where it goes! But it feels a little unrelated to the theme and it lacks content those are honestly the biggest down from this submission. Great job however and best of luck!


p.s there's some visual bugs i've encountered like skeletons randomly becoming invisible or replaying their spawn animation and i don't think the wave counter works as intended, keep those in mind!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks, yeah there's definitely bugs with the wave incrimenter and I think the z order for the map hiding NPCs that popped up when I was rushing last minute. Admittedly, I had a slightly different concept in mind with a very different mechanic, but I kind of forced myself into having to change it up last minute.
Also, I figured it might not be apparent that the "to the top" theme was supposed to be shown from the skeletons "resurfacing" out of their graves to the surface, which I could have elaborated on lol 
I should be dropping the first update right after the jam's over and I should have the "real" game loop and mechanic ready by then, if you're interested to check it out!

Submitted(+1)

Ohh okay that makes a little more sense then! And yes i’ll be following your game to check out later as well :D

Submitted(+1)

Cool game and concept! It's really simple but fun. It could use some extra mechanics I think, like maybe the trees could have some practicality in the game? I think mother nature is fed up with the clankers too so it would make sense lol.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I do have some extra mechanics planned other than the resurrections that I'm very excited to implement.

Developer(+1)

Well, not "extra"... To be honest, my plans for the main hook were too big in scope. But I think it's pretty novel, and it's on the way!

Submitted(+1)

Really good game. Would love to play it polished. Loved the art and found the concept really fun.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I really appreciate your feedback and look forward to releasing the first update after the jam!
