I implemented the ego change. Thanks to GGladam for the ego suggestion!
The soundtrack to this is banging! It's really awesome. I'm so jealous, I've tried to get a chiptune sound before but with no success. I completed the game, but couldn't beat DSD! I might go back now that I have played the other games and see if I can beat him. I found the game genuinely fun with some cool level design.
I have one piece of constructive criticism, that I hope doesn't annoy you! But I think if Scratch killed normal enemies in one hit when he was at full ego, it would make the player feel super powerful and really push you to reach max ego and not want to loose it. I hope you don't mind me saying. I think I have some issues with enemy HP in my game too! I found it hard to get a good balance.
Overall it's a cool game, it was the first one I played in the Jam and it stuck with me!
Thank you so much! That's a very good suggestion. I was intending to make some sort of change when at 100% ego, and it got lost somewhere along the way. Having you instant kill mobs is a pretty cool idea. Maybe do triple damage to bosses, and instant kill mobs.
I kept coming back to this one because I wanted to beat Dark Schippie Dues so bad... I finally got him! And with 1 hit point left, too! Really fun game.
Thanks! I'm glad some people were able to beat him. I was worried when I saw how bad Kyle did lol.
Really fun. Love the boss battles and abilities.
Really fun. Love the boss battles and abilities.
Thank you! Had fun with your game too.
That Schippie boss battle was *tough* but I did it! I kept telling myself that if I could beat the Nameless King and Dark Eater Midir, I could defeat Dark Schippie Dues if I just remembered my Dark Souls training. The lava worm boss was also a fun highlight (especially like its sound effects).
You definitely incorporated your mechanics in dynamic ways, so great job! I had a lot of fun playing it!
Thanks! I'm glad you were able to defeat dsd. I actually thought about Dark Souls fights when making the fight lol. The way you wait for attacks to miss, and then punish.
Thank you so much! It means a lot to hear.
I really loved the way you built the level design around Scratch's abilities. Well done!
Hope you enjoy it!
