Really cool idea!
The art style is really good, the simplicity really works well here. It's simple but entertaining. The survival aspect of it is very interesting! The combat design could use some different mechanics. It's difficult to hit an enemy without getting hit for example, and when enemies start piling up it gets impossible. Dashes, blocking, or stuns could work well here. Especially since enemies appear pretty early on, and if you're not super quick you won't have what you need. With better combat you could face more enemies and lengthen your run.
I did find it quite hard to play! I liked the challenge. However, I have to say that it's easy to outrun your enemies. You can't do anything else, but you stay alive. Though this is hardly the best for gameplay.
Loved it! Liked it a lot <3
The balance definitely needed some changes. I would have liked to have done a more complex combat system.
Thanks for playing and for the review.
I love you art style, good work !
Thanks.
Great sound and design, really fun too. Only change i would make is the ESC key exiting the game. Good Job!
Lol, escape was indeed a mistake. Thanks for playing.
Great work! I think a combat system is a bit too simple, but I enjoyed playing your game anyways. Also I accidentally exit the game with Esc key, which is not very convenient
Sorry for the escape button. I've learned my lesson, lol.
Thanks for playing.
Cool game! Think the art and sound design were both great, think the player shadow could've been less dramatic. Gameplay was pretty good as well, given the time constraint. I think there could've been more of an in-depth theme integration.
My biggest complaint is probably that the escape button quits the game since I kept pushing it to try to close the crafting menu lol, but that's more of a me thing.
Overall, nice work!! :)
The escape button was a mistake. I actually thought I had found some fatal bug after the submission period had ended when I pressed escape to close the crafting menu.
I felt very uninspired by the game. Frankly "portals" where enemies spawn were my cop-out. I think it fits the theme decently, but it's not very creative as its the kind of thing you'd see in many other, unrelated, games as well.
Thanks for playing, and for the review.
Fun game! I played until I got a full set of copper armor and tools! Controls all felt very intuitive and smooth.
Thanks for the compliments. I'm happy with how the "feel" of the game turned out.
Really cool game! Love how it feels and looks! It is fairly difficult tho, but overall fun!
Difficulty is always a balance I struggle with. I likely need to have others playtest my games more.
Thanks fro playing.
