I liked the game, monkeys are very charismatic. Two things that bothered me a little: 1. The player's bullet size could be a little bigger to help hit enemies. 2. Enemies that aren't on the screen shouldn't shoot, this seems a little unfair to players. Overall I thought it was pretty fun, congratulations.
i can definitely see where you're coming from with the enemies. I appreciate the feedback and the play! :)
Really good game love the cutscenes one question on the third room my screen became orange tinted is there a reason for that
thank you! I haven't got that orange tint "bug" before though, but that isn't supposed to happen! Thanks for playing nonetheless! :)
Very nice work on the cutscene! The story is nice and makes us want to kick some hunter's ass
The combat is cool, but the dash is way too long, and the camera is weird.
Your bullets are too small, it's hard to hit the enemies. But the boss battle is fun!
Little sound nitpick : the shooting sound is lacking, it doesn't feel good to shoot, try to add more stuff in it (more realistic shoot, bass impact, etc)
Finished it in 18min on normal mode! not sure if I have the skill to try the hard mode lol.
thank you for the feedback! I do share your thoughts on the sound, not my best attempt ahaha. but thanks for playing :D
(u do have the skill to clear hard mode - i believe in you)
great game ! Well polished ! I really like the narrative part !
Well play !!
im glad you enjoyed the little story! thanks for playing :)
Great game! Very well polished. I especially love the illustrations and the gameplay. Even the menu is well polished.
0 deaths btw.
awesome! now do that in hardcore mode haha, thanks for playing!!
Really enjoyed this game. It was really unique and the story was really Great.
thank you :) and thanks for playing!
Loved the story and the concept of the game!! I really wanted to avenge the poor monkey. Overall it was a really fun game to play
#monkeydidnothingwrong… thanks for playing!
Truly an inspiring story. I liked the clever tie-in to the theme, where the theme is the story rather than a mechanic!
thank you!
ps i like your name fartfish
I LOVE this concept and the execution of it was great. The intro really caught me off guard and it honestly made me care about the monkey a lot more than I thought I would, completely wordlessly. On top of that, it's just a really fun game and the pixelated old-school graphics are great! You did an incredible job on this game.
One funny bug I found was that you can shoot through some walls hah, but it isn't too game-breaking as it generally isn't very helpful in most scenarios. Having the environment block projectiles was a great touch too, and it made combat encounters a lot more fluid and nice since I had things to hide behind if I was getting overwhelmed and needed a second to catch my barrings!
thank you! having an attachment to the monkey was definitely one of the things i wanted to achieve, iām glad you felt that! also uhh the shooting through walls isnāt a bug, its a āfeatureā hahaha just kidding.. thanks for playing :)
Good game! I love it! Keep up the amazing work!
thank you for playing !!
Fantastic game! Super polished and I really liked the addition of an outline whenever the player is behind things.
thank you! and thanks for playing :) (gun monkey as dlc character in escape the date? ahaha jk)
I really liked the pace of the game, visually nostalgic, very fun, very cool sounds!
thank you very much, appreciate the kind words :)
Intro was cool and the movement was satisfying!
thank you for playing :)
Really liked this one!
Pros:
Cons:
The enemies' little "hey!" when they see the monkey was derpy as hell, but it amused me so much every single time it happened that instead of a con, it ended up being the thing that pushed Fun up to 5 stars for me.
All in all, great job!
P.S.: If you want help with audio on a future jam, hit me up :D I'd love to work with ya.
thank you for the in depth feedback! :D audio is definitely not one of my best points but im glad someone got an enjoyment from the derpy āheyās haha. iād definitely take you up on that offer in the future!
monkey + gun = fun. thanks for sharing :)
virtual + nomad = cool, haha thanks for playing!
i wasnt expecting such a well created cutscene sequence from any of these games but yours was incredible lmao, like actual game standard for storytelling while not overloading the player with info.
thank you :) i really wanted to try this style of story telling and im glad u enjoyed it
Man, this game was incredible, I can't believe you pulled this off in just ten days. This reminded me a lot of Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 which I played on the ps3 a long while back except you have a dodge mechanic going. I really liked the dodging by the way, it added another layer to the skill ceiling and made beating the game without taking any damage possible.
I want to be monke
what a big compliment, thanks for playing! :)
I liked the cutscene
thank you :D
So this is what happens if you give Ape Out a gun. Intense! I must say, the intro presentation is top-notch, and while the visuals of the main gameplay don't quiiite hold up to that standard, everything is still easy to parse and a rush to dodge past. If there is one thing I would have liked to see, it's that I think the camera should lean towards your mouse aim direction to make it easier to see where you're shooting. Especially while moving downwards you are very close to the edge of the screen, which hindered my enjoyment in some places. Overall though, colour me impressed! (that's pink. all the enemies in this game are impressed. colour me that)
thanks for playing and i appreciate the feedback!
so sad storyline, I almost cryed when tf2Heavy killed the monke, so sad. but the Game was so much fun, and a nice addition to the Monkey Gang
monkey gang š thanks for playing!
