I liked the arcady music and also the turn based gameplay. Cool game and interesting concept. But it has less unique stuff.

  • Try adding secret attacks
  • Try adding  special interactions between two different types of attacks.

The arcady music is the best feature of this game, but maybe a bit loud. Also, the final boss fight was a challenge.

Cool game

This was a very fun game to play! I enjoyed the fact that you had to type out the attacks, it makes you feel more immersed in the game. It's cool how the attacks fit the theme with virus names. However, I know other comments have mentioned this but the game does not fit the theme. Otherwise I love it! One thing I would do is make the first few computers a bit harder. They were pretty easy, I just spammed trojan and worms and I was good. I like how the final NASA computer boss fight was challenging. Personally, I would have liked an info section for what each attack does but I know that you mentioned it was intentional to have the player explore the different attacks. Either way, it was a very cool and innovative game. I like the Pokemon fighting style and it's cool that you unlock the computer's special attack when you defeat it. Thanks for showing up to the stream today! Feel free to join my discord if you wanna see more: discord.gg/qbUBg2tjED

Thanks for your detailed feedback! We will probably nerf trojan in the future

Submitted

Not a bad game! Not sure how it meshes with the theme but overall pretty good stuff! Though, all moves were pretty much useless in comparison to trojan, which was pretty overpowered lol.

Did you manage to finish the game ? Normally for the 3 last PC it's super hard to do a trojan only

Submitted

Cool game! I did not really find a link to the theme though, maybe if you could explain it a bit more? Other than that nicely done for a first jam! I like the music a lot.

Submitted

nice game, hated the music though, but i did like everything else a lot, also i don't think it fits the theme.

Submitted

Wow, this game is addicting! It seems very well polished, and I like the turn-based combat system. I feel like the connection to the theme is a bit weak, but anyway, it was fun!

Submitted

Very fun game! I enjoyed a lot playing this. I really liked the concept and the idea. There could be a lot more you could improve and add to this game. This is a really good submission to the jam!

The graphics were exactly how I like and I absolutely loved them! They fit very well with the game and also the music fitted very well.

The theme wasn't the best but it was still good. I didn't manage to actually finish the game and see the ending because I couldn't get pass the 5th computer lol :)  

This game has lots of potential and you did an amazing job! Good job mate!

Developer

Thanks a lot :D ! 

"There could be a lot more you could improve and add to this game" -> do you have some suggestion ?

Submitted

Maybe adding an endless mode where you beat enemies one after another and after you beat one your health regenerates maybe only a half and you also get a point. Or maybe adding more hacks abilities to make the game better or things like that. I don't have to many suggestions but I hope I helped you :)

Developer

We probably gonna add some secret move so it confirm the need for it :D. For the endless mode I think it would be a really boring mode but I never think about it. Anyway thank for answering my question!

Submitted

This game is really fun to play, its innovative but i don't think that it fits the theme.

Submitted

that was fun! music is very engaiging!

Submitted

Awesome idea, I really had fun playing the game. It did feel a little too short and felt like Trojan was just too overpowered. There was no need for any of the other commands. 

Developer

Did you manage to beat the final boss only with trojan ?!

Submitted

I actually beat the boss with trojan only! But I guess I was lucky, the boss did many silly things instead of trying to beat me.

Developer

Yes you must have been lucky but it proves that we will have to rework the AI

Submitted

Un super jeu, bravo ! De l'humour en bonne quantité et des super idées d'attaques ! Pour la suite je pense que retravailler l'interface un peu aidera, pourquoi pas mettre un fond à la matrix par exemple.

Hâte de jouer vos prochains jeux

Developer(+1)

Merci pour ton commentaire constructif ! Il se trouve que nous contions à la base mettre une transition style matrix pour rentrer dans les combats mais cela n'a pas pu être fait par manque de temps... 

PS : j'ai essayé une partie des "INROADS" hier mais tout les personnages se sont fait décimer en quelque tour ( je le noterais une fois que j'arriverais à le finir :D).

Submitted

Aïe x) Ça arrive, le système d'affinités entre certains personnages et certains terrains est opaque, mais plus t'en envoie sur une seule expédition, plus tu booste leurs chances !

Submitted

Awesome game music and visuals are very good.  i liked the music at NASA.

If you can, please check out my game too https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/925101
