Great concept, first time I see something like this in this jam!
Visuals are very nice and controls are pretty smooth
I've had a little issue with having to press left Shift to attack on PC as it caused my sticky keys alert to fire
On one of the levels (1 screen to the right of the one with balls in the middle) I got stuck inside of the floor tiles and was not able to move at all, had to restart the game
overall great game!
Thanks for playing the game and for leaving a feedback !
Yeah the shift key is a problem I haven't noticed as I've deactivated that setting a while back. I've added more options in the last package I've uploaded so player can use E to attack and move left with Q for the French keyboard.
I'll check that broken level out once the jam is over, thanks for pointing that out.
I absolutely agree with Andy The Indie here, but overall, hey, good job!
Wow, what a cool concept! It's kinda like you're supposed to be in a tug o' war with yourself. Though, I feel like the execution falls a little flat since there's nothing to stop the player from sitting still and purposefully dying to continue moving in one direction (though I suppose purposefully failing makes the game fall in line with the jam's theme). Maybe you could add some sort of gameplay reward for winning a fight just after losing one or add something to disincentivize the player from purposefully dying. You could also try making it so the enemy will never try attacking you unless you are actively trying to attack them, so you can't just sit still.
Cool concept to take over the enemy and fight yourself. Fight controls could be improved though, but it's nice to knock back the throwing stars. As someone mentioned... being able to cut into the bamboo would be amazing!
Great game! I like the concept and with the music it is better, I also like that you have added functions such as devouring the shuriken with the sword
me gusta el concepto y con la musica queda aun mejor, tambien me gusta que hayas agregado funciones como devolver la shuriken con la espada
The idea of taking the enemy control and having to fail on purpose just to try again, and then doing the same thing but with the enemy is a super clever idea!!! The only thing is that i wanted to throw the shuriken too... T-T (but it was super fun anyway, so that's just a small thing :P)
I love the concept of duality, I feel like it still needs a bit more work. I had few weird bugs here and there (the worst was the enemy not spawning on the new map, forcing me to start over), I found the orbs, but not sure what to do with it. The game has really nice music and art, so many points for that!
The two bots fighting was such a great way to kick off the game. I also thought giving the bot the shuriken's was a smart way to bump up their difficulty.
I kept getting pissed off and killing the bot when I was supposed to let it win. So I think that counts as a good enemy design.
I wasn't able to see the ending. I smacked one of the orbs, but I wasn't able to get back to that screen twice in one run without hitting a game breaking glitch. I once walked off screen and got stuck in the floor. And the other time I think I reflected a shuriken back at my own character and the game couldn't decide a victor.
The concept of having to fight yourself is pretty interesting. I think it would push the idea even further, if the 'other you' repeated your moves, so you had to truly fight yourself)
The game feels pretty good, actually, the art is amazing.
P.S. When I played the game I wanted so bad to slice those bamboo trees. I think something like that would instantly add more juciness for your game.
This pretty cool like a single player Nidhogg. Love the simplicity. Think it would be nice to have a block button as a lot of the fights ended up becoming a case of waiting for the enemy to jump and getting them when they land. Still fun as is though. Great little sprites.
Really nice game! The art is simple and really great. I also like the music + the sound effects.
Really interesting idea. I didn't manage to finish the game because at the last stage (I think) somehow my game bugged and my player disappeared :( It was too hard to redo all of it :)
Overall I really liked this game and you did an amazing job mate :)
Also if you have time I would appreciate a rating for my game from you :)
Kinda hard to beat my self. Got killed by my self and than the game freezed. :o I really liked your pixel art style. Could you rate my game?
