That moment when you turn the corner and a bee is right there. Oh, the clench back pedal that moment is great.
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed that moment specifically :).
ah, the gameplay was really fun
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it!
Funny game!
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it!
Bzz. Loved the audio, both the music and the dialogue. Audio between levels made me laugh :D Like others pointed out, more mechanics would have made the game more fun. Later levels get pretty challenging, but knowing that I will hear more audio files motivated me :D
Agent, great work! Bzz.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm really glad you enjoyed it and the audio was so fun for you. More mechanics would definitely be one of the first steps if we were to expand this game. Thanks again! Bzz.
Sounds like you had fun recording the audio :-)
The tile sheet could use some work.
Good job
Thanks for the feedback! I will tell my partner who does the art about the tile sheet. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Lol this was amazing! Great work! I love the audio files!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
The voice over made me laugh, and I also really like the main song. It didn't feel like there was any scaling in difficulty (maybe I didn't play long enough), and I think the game would benefit from this or some other mechanic of sorts that made you feel accomplished about progressing (power ups or whatever).
Thanks for the feedback! We struggled quite a lot with difficulty, people have said it jumps quite a lot in the last couple of levels, but we are still very new to this and difficult scaling is something we are far from mastering. Glad you enjoyed it though!
The voice acting was a nice touch - I wish there were some sort of subtitles as well, for accessibility.
That's a really good idea that I hadn't thought of and would add a nice touch, especially for accessibility. Thanks for the feedback!
Honestly, I wasn't expecting that voice acting when I first opened the game, it was quite simply amazing XD. I do have one complaint though. The player detection of the wasps sometimes pushes the player around which it probably shouldn't be doing in the first place, and it actually pushed the player spider out of the map at one point in my playthrough and it made me unable to continue properly. Another small complaint that you might want to work on. The rotation of the player sprite keeps on facing down whenever the player isn't moving when it should stay facing the direction it was last facing. I can suggest fixes for that problem but you can probably figure that out on your own. Other than that stuff, absolutely solid game you have going. Good job mate.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the voice acting :). The wasp's could definitely do with some work and the animation resetting to downwards is annoying and has happened on other games, I would definitely appreciate some advice on how to fix this.
I'm willing to help so I checked your github repository and... I think you uploaded the wrong thing onto there. You're supposed the upload the game files you see in the editor, but not the build itself. I can't review the code you've written from your repository because the C# scripts don't show up in the build. Please fix so I can help out
Oh right, I've never used Git before so wasn't really sure how to do it, I will try to and get back to you. Thanks so much!
I loved the game! The voice acting was a great addition! I would have liked it if the camera was a little more zoomed out though, it is hard to see where you are going.
Thanks for the feedback! Lots of people have requested a zoomed out camera so we are definitely thinking about it. I'm glad you enjoyed it though!
It's simple and fun ! I love your voice acting it's was a good surprise. Just a little thing I find annoying is the proximity betwen the player and screen border when follwing a direction. You need ninja reflexe if a wasps is in your way at this moment.
Overall it was great !
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the voice acting :). The difficulty definitely needs some fine tuning, especially in situations like you've described.
I'm a huge fan of when people voice act their game jam games, so points to you on that one. Until level 4, it felt like there wasn't much of a challenge at all, so what I might do to combat that is get rid of the initial collision with the wasp circle, and maybe increase their speed a bit. That would require a bit more work when it comes to telegraphing how the wasps are going to move, because you have to ensure there are gaps where the player can cross. Regardless though, this was quite a fun game and I enjoyed playing it!
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the voice acting. We struggled in the design process about fine tuning difficulty and it's interesting you're asking for more difficulty as some have found it quite hard, we're still trying to figure out the best way to tailor it to as many people as we can (personally, I love challenging games, but they're definitely not right for everyone so it's finding the balance).
Fun game! Great project, enjoyed the funky spy music keeping me motivated, Camera did feel a little jittery at times but nothing that overly killed the experience!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you liked the music, my partner put a lot of work into it! Sorry about the camera, there are definitely tweaks we can still do to improve.
Pretty solid little game. Loved the voice acting lol. I think having the game zoomed out a bit more would help with navigating around.
Thanks for the feedback. Zooming out is something quite a few people have suggested, so we want to look into it. I'm glad you enjoyed the voice acting :)
The part of the screen that is visible to the player, is a bit too zoomed-in. That, combined with the player's speed, has put me one too many times into scenarios where the time between wasp aggro range, and me getting... stabbed? ... was way shorter than human reaction time. Tho, eventually I became a bit more cautious; the fast walking speed perhaps made me a bit too confident.
I'd suggest increasing the margin of error, by either lowering player's speed, or by tweaking the wasp A.I (like, by making it patrol>warned>chase system, instead of patrol>chase).
Level design, could also use some tweaking. The designs themselves are fine, but the visual side of it is a real bummer. If you'd add some props, and would cut levels into segments, that would differ in walls and/or floor textures... I think, that combined with the increased margin of error, would make the screen being too zoomed-in not that big of a problem!
That's a feedback for you. I must say that I appreciate the fact that this game has it's own music, huge props for that! The story was so absurd and nonsensical, that I love it!
Overall, this game is okay. Good job you two!
Thanks so much for the really in depth feedback. I agree that the Wasp's AI could be refined a bit more and varying the art in the level design could help. A few people have also commented on how zoomed in it is, so this is something we should definitely look at. I'm glad you still enjoyed the story and music though!
Such cool voice acting, I'm sure you must have had fun recording that,r really brings the game to life.
Thanks, it was really fun to record :)
Like the concept :)
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you like it!
Super voice acting. Well done!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you liked it!
Nice game, especially the voices in between :)
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Solid game! Artwork is nice, music really adds to the sneaky mood and gameplay is somehow better than Metal Gear Survive despite being built in a month :D
Wow, that's very high praise, thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it :)
