I keep dying because every time I hear the beat drop, I just had to stand up and rave haha

Submitted

Also what engine did you use to make this? Amazing work! 

Developer

I used Game Maker Studio ^^

That's what I love to hear! I guess :))) Thanks for playing!

I somehow managed to finish it! Great game, the battles and the music go really well together. I wonder if it’s possible to beat the last guy, or you are supposed to lose?

I like how you go as far as animating the actual game window, very nice effect! It even worked on Linux through Wine, which makes it even more impressive for me.

There were few technical issues, but nothing serious. Like when you reach screen edge you get teleported to the center, causing you to take a lot of damage. I also couldn’t move in the battle with James, but it got fixed once I restarted the game.

The only problem is that I don’t really understand how this game correlates to the jam theme. Can you clarify? I’m probably just not smart enough. :-P

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

thank you for playing! Let me clarify some things:

About the teleportation thing... i will remove it from the game  because a lot of people thought the same as you. Sorry for being an inconvenience. About the James fight it was a variable that won't reset until after the game restarted. Sorry for that too. You were supposed to play as Nathan but due to time limitations i had to scrap that mecahnic so in the end it's a fight were you were meant to lose. About the theme, you play as both you the player, and Sierra in normal and gem mode. Hope that answers your questions. Thanks again for playing! ^^

Thanks for clarifying! It’s a bit subtle, but I think it passes as playing both sides!

Yessss a Bullet Hell ! And the patterns are synchronized with the musics, that pleases my Touhou-fan ears ! It's just a bit sad that it isn't original musics, but you chose the right songs for the game so it's ok ! Seriously, the game has some great ideas, and is really fun to play. Really nice job, I love it !

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm so happy that I made a touhou fan also happy :D

Great news! After a quick restart I managed to run the rest of the game without any problems! Thanks you so much for making this man, im 100% gonna feature this in my video about it. I am also gonna try to get u as highest place as possible. The music timed with everything in the boss battle is amazing! As soon as you see this, please just tell me in which game making software did you make this, I really wanna check it out.

Developer(+1)

This makes my day 100 times better. Just thank you so much! (And as I said the game engine is called Game Maker Studio).

Jam Host

Im glad man, you deserve it! (while making the other comment I didnt see your first reply lol, thats why I asked the same question 2 times)

This game is my favorite, the boss battle feels like a concert, music, lighting, just awesome! Good job man. The bummer is at the tutorial boss battle end, when i start again there is a "fatal error" so i cant really play the full game(idk if its intentional). I ask you in which game making software did u make this masterpiece?

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the kind words! Well, that wasn't intentional so... can you please send me the error you got so I can fix it? About the engine, I use Game Maker Studio. I know it's not as good as Unity for example, but i'm a firm believer that experience makes a game good no the engine. Anyway thank you again so much and I'm so sorry for the bug!

Jam Host

Haha, read the new comment I posted, ull like it!

I completed the tutorial boss, but then got an error message saying that its unable to find any instance for object index 15 name oMenuGif at gml_Object_oButton_mouse_11

(line -1)

Mannnn.... This game is tough..Really loved playing it.. I might be able to pass the boss some day :(..Love the game.. Good job :)

= Stuck at the tutorial? = 

* Look, I get it. The fight can be hard for some people.That is intentional. * I suggest persevering to actually finish it. * But I also understand that this can take too long so here it's a work-around.

= How to skip the tutorial boss = 

1. Press both the windows key button and the "R" key 

2. It should open up the "Run" window. 

3. In that window copy paste the following% localappdata% and then press enter . .

 4. Look For A Folder Called CCC_Jam And Open It (. If The Ini Part Does Not Show Up Do Not Worry It'S Not A Problem) 

5. Double Click On Void_data.Ini 

6. Add This Next Line Of Text: Tutorial = "1.000000" 

7. Save the file and open up the game. 

8. If you don't see a void_data file then dm me and i will send you the file.

This is a way for people to enjoy the game even if they can't defeat the boss

I tried that.. it taunted me for being a cheater :(

This is some big brain games

Really cool! I didn't even know you can do this beyond the limits of GMS2, You've inspired me to test more with gms2. I almost got past the boss on my like 3rd or 4th try. I love how the game was a mix of Deltarune and Just Shapes and Beats.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! ^^

Really cool game. Gameplay and audio are spot on. Nice work.

Cool art and audio but I couldn't get past the tutorial unfortunately.

Developer

i posted a way to get past the tutorial hope this makes the game a better experience for you ^^

Awesome game! As a play tester, it was a very enjoyable experience. The game now is almost a teaser, and I am very excited to see what the story becomes, and how the mechanics will play out in the future! I have very high hopes for this game. Nice job, Painite :)

Submitted(+2)

Very cool game with a lot of content in it, very impressive for a jam game. The art looks sick, movement is nice, exploring is fun, music and sound effects are on point. THO, the game is too hard on the fights, well for me at least, and the text are just too much, maybe have some images while you're telling stuff too, it'd be a lot better. Besides that great game :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! Yes I know the game is hard and that there aren't really any cutscenes but i didn't have enough time to make them. Anyway I will probably make a post jam version that improves those aspects. Thank you so much for playing! ^^
