- Simple game and decent replayability with the different companions and the leaderboard. Bit unclear when you die/respawn as you die if you don't go forward enough, also with it happening instantly it can be a bit rough, but the game makes for a quick and fun experience

Hey TheAtrxcity !
How are you? My name is Ilias.
I tested your game, " The Towns Hero "
_______________________________________________________________
Simplistic and well crafted pixel art can results into nice and coherent playable content when properly executed !
Combinaision between a 2d sidescrolling and a runner in addition of platforming experiences can sometimes make for a really nice and fun game !
_______________________________________________________________
At the begining the loading screen takes to much time , i think it's a unity bug ( if you have used unity ) , many other jammer had it too on their game entries .
Runner Games can be fun and nice memories !!

Fun little game, I was surprised to see the different classes which definitely added an element of interest to the game. Well done!
Cute & Polished Artwork. The FX were not my cup of tea haha. A very 'complete' game without any bugs that I encountered (or maybe I did & just didn't notice ahah) while others are saying easy to play, hard to master. For me it was hard to play, hard to master but thats just me cause I'm not good with platformers haha. Also, surprised nobody has mentioned but very mario like level palette.
Well done on the submission, turned out great!
Very cool runner! Support orb is the favorite one with a double jump) Art style is cute! Easy to play, hard to master :)
Thank you very much!
really fun game, its a bit hard to attack nicely, overall nice game
Nice job! I had fun testing all classes!
I think the support is my favorite because of the double jump.
There seems to be a bug with enemy damage where each time you try again enemies deal more damage. After 5 or 6 tries, everything kills you with one hit.
Other than that, it is a fun game! Keep it up!
Oh, wow I didn't think of that. That bug is definitely in there. I never reset the difficulty timer. Thanks so much for playing my game!
The game is really cool! I like the movement of the player with the dash and double jump, and the companion choices. The leader board is a great addition to the game because it gets the player to keep playing. Really great job!
Thank you so much, I am happy you liked the game and I hope you had some fun with it! :)
Really well made, I'm going to mirror the last comment a bit and say that not having an invincibility frame makes damages a bit unrealiable. Still, pretty good one, simple but pleasant. Movement is fluid and responsive and the different ways each companion plays adds a bit of variety.
Solid entry.
Thank you so much. I would change the iframes to be longer to make them more noticeable. I should have also provided some more guidance in the controls. For example you can attack while you dash to get iframes from the dash and an attack. And you can dash in different directions when holding movement keys.
I really liked it) But it’s a little complicated due to the fact that when you come into contact with a collider of enemies, it triggers without a delay before the next trigger. But overall the atmosphere is great!
Thank you I really appreciate it! I'll have to look into the getting hit issue because it's supposed to have a 50 frame buffer before you can get hit again! Thanks for playing anyway!
