Nice. I like the fact that you need to optimize you infiltration to succed in the levels.

Good asset too

Developer

thanks!

Nice work, I think the idea of the time limit, combined with refreshing it via the gold pickups, gives the platforming a nice puzzle element and challenge. The assets work well together to create a nice atmosphere. Well done!

Developer

thank you very much!

Overall I enjoyed Gold Fever. It took a moment to get used to the mechanic, but once it clicked it was fun to figure out the paths quickly. Some of the environment art like barrels or spikes/stalagmites gave me the impression of being blockades when they weren't, initially I tried to jump over past them when I could just run through. The UI at the beginning showing the credits and especially the levels could use a darkened panel behind to make it easier to read. It was a little straining on the eyes. But solid game overall!

Developer

Thank you so much! I will definitely try to improve on those subjects

It's overall good. My only complaint was it was a little confusing at first

Developer

Thank you! I will try to make it a little bit understandable at first sight

The graphics are really good, and the controls feel great. It’s very well polished and finished. By the way, I think it would be more comfortable to collect the gold with the mouse click and use the other hand just for movement. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for your comment, I am planning to completely remove picking golds manually so the player can focus on enemies and time.

I think its a great small game. the idea is cool and fun. I just don't know why the player should press E to pick up the gold, could he not just walk over it ? would definitely a quality of life update. Also I would separate the gold / goblins more from the background, either by outline or by contrast. But this is just personal preference :)

Developer

thank you! i will proably do some tweakings on those.

I completed all levels. I had fun. Nice level progression and balanced difficulty.

The theming of "UNSTABLE" is not as explicit as I expected though.

It was a bit frustrating not having coyote time in a fast paced platformer game like this. But overall, it was quite fun. 

A few more levels would've been great.

Developer

thank you! i will probably add it as an update after the ratings

Nice fun game! I like how smooth the gameplay feels.
I think adding some movement tricks like wall jumping and sliding could've spiced up the game
Visuals are nice, though some columns looked like walls for me and some wall decals looked like spikes, though it didn't really affect anything

Developer

yes, it was my intention to add smoothness and spikes but i decided to give my attention other things because the time was catching up. thank your for your comment!
