WOW Super original and i did not expect the gameplay switch up!! so cool and thanks for submitting! would like you comment and rating on my game, thanks!
Thank you so much! Super fun watching you play the game and seeing you rage quit on the level that I call "killbox" lol. I'll make sure to check out your game!
Hahaha you're so welcome, was awesome!! excited for you to try my 6-12 hours prototype, not much but its something I hope you enjoy!
I also agree a lot with those below, love the idea and wish it was explored a bit more. I think a score system would've gone pretty rad with the mechanics if ricochets and consecutive hits before firing again were rewarded. Only bug (?) I encountered was instantly winning after I set the difficulty to hard and shell speed to 10 :P
Otherwise yeah, enemies were very tanky (my arm hurt by the end of the game lol) and I wish you could skip the intro on future playthrus. I really like the idea of modular gameplay in the settings, but I wasn't too keen on doing the intro another time. It's a very cool shift in perspective, going from slow to fast, but still tedious nevertheless.
Thank you for playing! I totally agree with everything that you'd change/add about the game! Thank you for the feedback!
Pretty good. I too got the bug that was mentioned by Gatlink. It's happening when you are holding a movement key and hit space to mutate the turtle. Playing as a hockey puck to kill enemies was a fun idea and I wish you had more time to explore it. I liked the little story bit at the beginning but you need a way to skip it after you've seen it once. I was able to get through several rooms and I think you did a good job of ramping up the difficulty. I wasn't able to make it all the way through as I keep accidently hitting the stuck walking bug and needing to start over. Overall neat game concept I think you just needed more time (running out of time in a game jam?! *gasp* :-p). Thanks for the game!
Hey! Thanks for playing! Also thank you for letting me know the specific bug, I'll look into it to see what the problem is. Yeah, skipping the story would be a good idea after the player has seen it, and just having a level selector would be much better. Thank you for the feedback! :)
I got a bug where my turtle would walk in a direction and never stop, whatever I did (happened twice before I stopped). Drag and release to hit enemies is pretty fun, but they have so many hit points it becomes a pain in the butt. More damage depending on your speed, to the point where you can kill an enemy in one hit if you're fast enough, would be more fun
Hey! Thanks so much for playing! Yeah, I did notice that bug towards the end of the process, and couldn't figure out how to fix it in time. I also wanted to add a lot to the combat itself, but wasn't able to. Thank you so much for the feedback!! :)
