Finally beat it! Normal mode, that is. I don't even wanna try the hard ones. But it was pretty fun, and the art style and the concept are great. I have some problems with the gameplay, though: Because there's no visual or audio feedback when you get hit, it's pretty hard to get used to the hitbox. Also, when you jump, the speed counter goes off screen, and that killed me a lot. I would also like to have some indication that you're slowing down, like a different animation, or the character starting to wobble, or something like that.
Oh, and (this isn't part of the review, just an idea I had while playing) what if instead of pressing R, you had to quickly press the left and right keys to spin faster? Maybe that would add an interesting layer of challenge? I dunno.
Good job on the game!
I love the art style and the idea is very creative! I found it difficult to play which isn't a bad thing, but I felt that even when I had avoided an enemy I still seemed to be hit. Overall, good job!
Liked the art a lot! Even tough it seems that every time I get hit I die instead of slowing down.
Also, you might want to check out the downloadable version after the jam finishes, it says that there is a conflict with the pck, hope it helps!
Playing on the hardest difficulty was a pain, but it felt challenging enough to feel satisfying to win. I wasn't to sure what the keybinds were in the how to play. The usage of the theme is pretty cool, keeping the character spinning while dodging attacks, Cool game!
Yeah, became aware that the keys werent displaying clearly too late, that's why i put em in the itch page for those who didnt get it. Also thought i wasnt that difficult, maybe i got too used to it while developing, but even trying it now is challenging to me even in normal. Happy you were able to andure to beat Seriously Difficult, thanks for playing my game :D
Great visuals! I found it difficult even on the easiest difficulty, just because sometimes I wouldn't know what exactly killed me. I definitely wish there was audio. Otherwise, this was a fun experience. Good job!
The game was ok and the difficulties were good because this is the first game that I've played that included difficulties I liked the inclusion however I have no clue how on earth your meant to dodge the tomatoes you can't move that fast so if a tomato is directly under you it will hit you. 3/5 Enjoyment.
The game was creative and the theme was well utilized. 5/5 Creativity & Theme.
The visuals were great and it was clear what they were. 5/5 Visuals.
There was no audio and this is a ballet game! If I could give it a negative rating I would 1/5 audio.
There was no seriousness! 1/5 seriousness.
The game got a decent score of 15/25.
Definitely regret not being able to put the music in, but i'm thankful the gameplay is enough to compensate. Thought it seemed pretty serious, was going for a looney toons/ old cartoon aestethic, which i embraced with the narrative but hey i appreciate the boldness honest review, i like that.
And as for the tomatos, should've probably fixed it, but time was running; will definitely take into account for the future. Thanks for the thoughtfull review, and good luck to you :D
Thanks for responding and taking my feedback so positively! Thanks for giving feedback on my game too!
A serious challenge, I managed to beat it after many failed attempts. Maybe I'm just a lightweight but I don't think I am serious enough to beat this on "seriously hard" mode. Excellent visuals! I wish there was sound.
Very creative concept! :D
