I love it! I could play it for hours non stop and I think your idea would be great for long rides or for a mobile game. I liked how your sounds work but you have to fix some stuff.

First game I played was against the dragon. I think a mere human without any upgrades can't beat it. Upgrades could be better too. Some of them are very unforgiving, some of them are straight up overpowered. They need some balancing. And after you defeat an enemy every projectile should be destroyed, Player can still be killed after the win and thus can't pick up upgrades.

But I liked it. I can't wait to see more!

I ended up playing this game for far too long! It was really fun and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The only downside I have is that slower bigger characters are pretty unplayable, like the troll. The project and speed are so slow I wasn't able to hit certain characters and would be stuck on levels for like 5-10 minutes. And other characters like the wizard got really big and powerful too quickly. Ended up fighting the dragon by standing still and holding the space bar.

This is a fantastic fighting system, I love it! With some touched up art you will have yourself a amazing game. Great work! Keep it up!

funny game the ide of different classes of characters is great a better control of the shooting direction would've been nice but the shooting as it's adds a bit of good difficulty for the game so it wasn't that big of a problem great job mate

Had fun playing :) I like the different characters and the variety of upgrades, even if I don't know what some of them do. At some point I became immune to damage, which kinda ruined a bit of the fun, but still it was nice just shooting enemies. I also think that the boss appears at a very right moment, because else the game would become boring for being too repetitive. So nice job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing!

Immune to damage sounds like you reduced your Size to 0. I kept it in as an exploit. 

I'm glad you managed to get to the boss. If you manage to beat the boss, you have a chance of playing as them in later games.

Thanks for submitting your game to be played in the stream! You can see my reactions over in the vod down below (games are separated into chapters with yours being the seventh chapter)

Developer

Thanks for playing, sorry I couldn't join the stream and watch you play live.

Really appreciate the feedback, viewport stuff is really helpful and I'll have a look into changing how the bonuses are handed out. You've given me some great ideas like maybe a chest that opens after a certain amount of time in the area. I'll have a look at the sound too, I didn't get chance to implement the sound bars saving the new position.

I had loads of fun playing this game and learning all the different mechanics.

I think it was well made but there's this bug where the player's hitbox disappears and the player essentially becomes invicible and even move outside of the visible screen. This is in the web build btw, so you might want to check that out!

Developer

I'm glad you had fun with it!
I'm aware of reducing the player's hitbox to 0, kinda left that in as an exploit to make you overpowered if you manage to get that lucky and get the right drops. Didn't intend to be able to go out of bounds though, that might need to be tweaked a bit.

Played for about 30 mins straight.. Enjoyed more than I expected. Was fun figuring out the various mechanics. Got to a point one time where I was just firing an endless amount of ... onions(?)... and dominated. :D


Thanks!

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you had so much fun with it!

Nice! yeah they are supposed to be onions. :D

Fun concept, I liked the physics with the projectiles, and it makes the game much more interesting compared to other vertical shooters. I also love the upgrading system after each win. My only issue is that the projectiles feel to slow and random at times. Sometimes you win in a few seconds, and other times you win after a minute, there's not much of an in-between.

But, that problem can definitely be fixed with more time spent tweaking variables etc.

Overall, very nice :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!!

Yeah I'll have to work on the pacing a bit!

Fun little vertical scroller. The bullets were a little too slow and I couldn't read the powerups between levels, but beside that it was good. Ogre throwing onions is a plus.

Nice work!!

Fun game, I like the soundtrack and concept. I don't like the graphics, but maybe it's just me.

Well done!

That was incredibly cool! That's an amazing concept that I would LOVE to see upgraded and expanded, well done!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it, there is more I want to do with it

Submitted(+1)

It's really hard! I did get only to 2. level. 

Maybe make it bit more forgiving next time :D

Good job.

Developer

Thanks for playing. Haha, the first level against the dragon you're meant to lose. and it gets easier every time you win, cos you unlock a new class and get bonuses for that run

Submitted(+1)

Very little content has been added, and because of this it is difficult to write something specific.You need to develop this idea to get something more interesting and more playable .Good luck!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah I'd like to add more, what would you like to see?
