Nice work. Would recommend making it clearer which item is required to progress to the next section.
Made it back here and it seems like it's up and running now. Winterbraid already said most of what I'd say, so I'll just echo the points of the music was nice and fit the sort of vibe that I was getting from the character and enemy designs which were pretty interesting and looked fluid in their animations. Can definitely use some work, but what's here is interesting. Good on ya guys for making this.
Interesting demo! Loved the main menu screen and the designs of the protagonist and the boss, though everything else felt very unfinished.
Jumping and dashing are very floaty and it feels like you have very little control over your air speed, making it easy to overshoot or undershoot platforms. The E key (to pick up the needle upgrade) and Right-click (to shoot) are required to progress, but it isn't said anywhere in the game or on the page and I had to find it through trial and error.
The hitboxes for the player attack and the enemies feel a bit unfair, you have to stand so close that it's hard to avoid damage yourself, and your basic swing only seems to hit enemies in front of you despite looking like the character swings above their head. After a while, I just started running past all the enemies.
In the end I managed to find what looked like a boss, but couldn't get past the door to his room. However, I still managed to kill him through the door. Based on how many hits it took, I think his HP was way too high to fight him legitimately! On the other hand, the music was very nice when it played. Overall, definitely needs a lot of work, but good job getting the demo out!
unlike all the other players i was able to download and install it. but the the controls were very clunky, for some animations there is no sprite so the character kind of just disapears. The attack animation is kinda slow and feels hard to use, same with movement. And i got stuck a few secs after starting because i couldnt reach anything. Also the settings button didn't work. I do like the design of the main character.
Hey,
thanks for the critiques. the platforms are reachable, but they are kinda difficult. You have to use the dash to reach most platforms.
i thought u guys were wizards to make a game this small but it didnt open
I updated the link it should work now
i will try now then :3
I unfortunately couldn't start the game :(
I updated the link it should work now
Hmm. I appear to be unable to run the game. Perhaps it is missing a folder it needs in the download? Unfortunately, unless there's a way for me to run the game, I must pass for now.
