A fun game in the spirit of Mac and Joe's franchise. But enemies swapped Dinosaurs into UFO.  I liked story intro (in some cases looks like lost vikings). The first boss can be cheesed with bones, because I can attack the enemy undercover from a safe distance. I like new boss patterns after boss get damaged.  Controls is ok for me.  The implementation of the theme looks a little formal, but is well done.

Very nice job overall!

Oh thank you very much for this feedback. I know the stealth attack of the first boss comes a bit lately so you can just stand in the corner to cheesed it. 

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 

Sticking with 3/5 on this one it was good, but it had some quirks that I remember! best of luck to you

I tried twice, and it wouldn't let me move left. I was just stuck on the right end of the screen. Does anyone else have this issue? Rated anyway. 

Developer

Hello sorry for that but it's "q" to move left as it mentionned on the description. Thank you anyway.  ;)

Oh got it. I had another go with that. Nice Game, perhaps a boss health bar would be helpful. Nice job with the ability upgrade system.

The sounds effect are nice, and the are music too. The gameplay is fine, the bosses are pretty simple but I like how each of them have a special attack where they cant get hurted. 

Not sure if its intended but the first two boss can be beaten by just standing in the bottom right corner most of the times, the but other two boss is fine, so maybe its act as the difficulty increase?

Anyways, nice game!

Big thanks for this review. Indeed I wanted an easy boss rush but not too easy and a feeling of progression with the upgrades. I'm glad you liked the owerall sound.

I love the design of the statue health bar and the exchange screen. Great job!

Submitted

Fun gameplay, enjoyed my time with it.

Developer

I'm glad about that, thx you for your feedback

I had fun playing this, I found it easier to farm the first boss for currency so I could get the upgrades. The second boss was really hard without them! Good job!

Developer(+1)

I really wanted that some upgrades must be purchased to kill the next bosses but I didn't manage the difficulty for all of them so the balance is not very coherent.  Thank you for the feedback your game is a little gem though

Submitted

really fun game! all the bosses were really unique, and the boss attacks were actually really cool! i had to rebind my keyboard to actually be able to play the game, but after that it feels really good to control! also, there was never really a need to use any other weapon other than the bone, you could never really get close enough to the boss to use the boulder, and the arrows were kind of just a weaker version of the bone. also, i wish there were some more sound effects than just walking and picking up stuff, but other than that, this is a really great game!

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah the bone is still the best weapon but without the damage upgrade the last boss might be long to kill it. Thank you for this big review and feedback, that's cool !

yeah cool! 3.75/5 but I hit something and killed the whole browser? probably because of ALT scheme

Developer

Thank you, I messed up with keys binding but fortunately the game is still playable.

Submitted

The game is very fun. It looked like a lot of work went into it. Good Job.

Developer

Indeed ! Several days and nights, I literally lost my social life during a month. :D

Submitted

This game is weird and I love it, it reminds me of the games I would play on the school library computer, good job!

Developer

haha thank you 😉 

Submitted

Hello I had the same bug as the other guy too and the whole game window just seemed to disappear as well xD The intro is really cute/well done though :)  

Submitted

I tried the Alt Shift method too but that didn't help :/  

Developer

Hey Okay thank you too, normally "Q" is still working to move left, it is not very comfortable but okay for playing a few minutes. 

Submitted

There is a bug for me where i am unable to move to the left. Very game breaking but the art and beggining cutscene was amazing. Let me know if the bug is there for you too because i would love to play the game.

Developer (2 edits)

Thank you for the feedback, my bad I didn't manage Qwerty mapping so to move left is actually "Q" or you can switch keyboard mode with "alt+shift" Sorry I hope you will make a new try. I'll edit a note about that in the description.
