Refreshing art style and cool fights, congrats!

Developer(+1)

Thank  you so much, really appreciate it. 

I started programming in Godot about 1 year ago and you are one of the reasons i got that far! 

I love your videos and streams 馃グ 

The fact that we got a comment from an Godot tutorial celebrity makes me feel proud lol 

But tbh, our artist carried this game 馃ス

One of the more creative art style I remember lots of dialogue and story and fun humor! 4.25/5 ! 

Hey there, I am trying to get other to re-submit their reviews for my game if possible...it was deleted and removed from the Jam on accident based on a technicality which was solved between the Jam Host and a particular asset used in the game...please if you have time, energy, and/or generosity to re-saved your ratings/reviews for the game. I am going through and re-saving yours given my browser kept your rating saved data on my end...but it looks like I lost all 73 reviews and ratings from my end....  :( best of luck to you in the Jam 

Sorry for the inconvenience if you have a chance to rate/re-rate

Cool style. Nice movement. There is a bug where if you press dash while shooting, the dash won鈥檛 work, but personally it didn鈥檛 bother me. Overall a very good game.

Nice art and one of the few games that didn't give bosses a massive healthpool, the bosses weren't particulary fun tho more or less just a sprite swap and the 3rd one had like 3 instances of me taking damage in a single frame when it teleports

The art direction is great, and really polished. I really like the manga style story, and the character designs are goofy and interesting

Submitted(+1)

Incredible game - so polished and well done.  Loved the story, art, music & gameplay!

Art direction is so good in this game.

Gameplay is fun and well designed.


exchange student?   Not expect that on this theme lol

Wow. What a great game. Great work! All aspects of the game are so solid and coherent. You guys work on this full-time for the month, haha.  My favorite game in the jam.

Developer(+2)

haha thank you so much! actually (little flex) we did most of it during the last week x) i was procrastinating so much i watched whole 4 seasons of attack on titan and all of mob psycho before i really started drawing :P programmer has a little kid and work and i asked our storywriter one week before the end to join in! she did an amazing job on such short conditions. but yeah last few days messed up my sleep rhythm

I loooove the art style! This is an awesome game with a lot of potential! 

Submitted(+2)

The art style is perfect, I really like the boss's attack pattern and the time-changing mechanic. The only thing I can mention is that sometimes combat happens off-screen.

Submitted(+2)

The art has a lot of style, and I didn't expect a visual novel. Really nice game 5/5

Submitted(+2)

The art is so impressive man, one day I hope to work with someone with these talents!

im already fixed in this team but im sure ill have some time left because my team has only so much time with job and family. Games is part of my studies so i cant ever collect enough experiences.  let me know if you ever want to participate in a gamejam together :) you can find me in the discord server @sm枚rrebrot

This was super charming and funny, probably my favourite submission!

Submitted(+1)

Found you

Developer(+2)

Thank you so much ! Means a lot your game is awesome! I was kinda blown away by how clean it is everything fits so perfect 

Submitted(+2)

Felt like i watched anime xd. This game is satisfiing in all aspects, even interacting with menu is fun. Story is hillarious. Bucket - true gigachad. Shlabethany - indeen a bitch.

Submitted(+1)

Fantastic game, really well made.
A minor tweak would be to show bosses position when the player is far away from them but other than that I have no complains, Ten points for the menu as well.

Developer

thanks a lot! There already is a little red rectangle next to the player showing the direction to the boss. But yeah this needs to be improved. some suggested the cam focusing between the player and the boss

Submitted(+1)

Whoa, absolutely love the art and story! It really takes you into the world! I also really appreciate the attention to detail in the gameplay, like the screen-shake from the impact, the time slow effect, the fact that the music slows along with the timeslow, I'm also in love with your "Fight" transition screen!

The only feedback is that the transition between the story and the gameplay feels a little bit forced, but otherwise it was a really fun experience!

Submitted(+1)

Intuitive gameplay and the slowdown mechanic was a neat feature, though I often found that I didn't need to use it to defeat the bosses. The Scott Pilgrim-esque story was fun too!

Submitted(+1)

The artistic style is incredible. Very good job!

Submitted(+1)

Wow, really incredible art style and a delightfully silly story. It reminds me a lot of Scott Pilgrim. I feel like I would want the camera to be zoomed out a little bit more during the battles though, so that I could better track the boss's location. But other than that, simply top-tier work!

Submitted(+1)

Great story. The artstyle is very consistent and fitting, and well use of the boss rush theme. The gameplay and controls are good and the attacks are clever and fits the bosses.

If I were to suggest one improvement, it would be to center the camera between the boss and PC as to keep the boss in view longer.

Developer (1 edit)

thank you for the feedback and the suggestion, I'm already implementing it as I think it would be the most elegant solution 馃憣 awesome feedback, thank you a lot 馃槝
