Nice game.
I will use the words of another comment as it happen to myself
> 1) The looking feels strange that it does not align with mouse input
The aiming was a little uncomfortable for me. Very nice though.
Wow, very nice! A fun, complete game with great characters, UI, gameplay, levels and music! Great job!
Love the game, I suck at initiative rolls but still enjoyed myself, it's got a really good balance with the combat and am incredibly grateful a map was added!
Very cool game, and the music is amazing! An impressive project, especially for such a short amount of time.
This was awesome! I remember the shop plushie and the badass music from last year's jam 😂 Great fun, it was cool to learn how to use my attacks to maximise damage!
This was very fun. If you fleshed this out it could be a legitimate paid game
Extremely fun! and what a concept haha but i think the music takes the cake!! The battle music is so catchy, I didnt want the enemy to die!
I didn't know I needed a game like this, but this game was awesome! I had a lot of fun and spent the last hour playing this... oops haha. I got a little bummed out when I got booted out of the game due to a crash / error and I lost all my progress. It was fun and I got far on the second level, but crashed while fighting a wasp. Nothing useful in the error message other than saying it crashed and couldn't load the web version anymore. Still had a lot of fun!
Some notes:
1) The looking feels strange that it does not align with mouse input
2) was unsure that it was a turn-based fighting system and tried finding the controls of how to attack with my pincers/ stinger - took me a while to just walk into the first guy hoping something would happen
3) I never played a game like this before so the first battle was almost overwhelming with how much information there was and terms I am unfamiliar with: initiative, tenacity, and fortitude. The side bar of what happened in the turn went really quick, but was helpful later on when I understood what was happening
I could totally see more being added to this game to change up the different moves each part has, but this is super impressive for 1 person, great game! This was awesome!
This delivers a unique and engaging dungeon-crawling experience. Controlling a scorpion with distinct claw and tail attacks adds a refreshing twist to turn-based combat. The retro visuals and atmospheric music enhance the immersion. While the combat system is innovative, incorporating more environmental challenges could further enrich the gameplay. Overall, a creative and enjoyable game, great work!
Holy shit! That was unexpected. I've never played as a scorpion in a maze before, it's very creative, including claw and tail blows.
But I'd like to mention the choice of music - it was like Ninja Gaiden/Ryukenden vibes. Awesome pick.
The gameplay is pleasant, progression and enemies do not give boredom. Great job!
Now this was a nice game play! Love the combat mechanics and also the variety in enemies.
Great game submission!
Good game and the bgm is amazing. The combat system is unique, making use of the scorpion body as way to decide the options is unique.
The only problem is probably the area is empty, maybe if there is Varity of challenges instead of just fights, it will make the journey more fun. You just need to add more to the main game loop and you are good to go.
Good job.
This game is great, with a wonderful feel to the mechanics—amazingly well done! I love the retro map and music, along with the fun combat. 10 out of 10!
I found that the number of options in this game was a bit much for the size of the game, not giving enough time to grasp most of it unless you are used to this type of games or are willing to put in enough time to learn. It was also sad losing all the progress when dying to the boss after killing all the other enemies. Maybe that was just because I am not used to playing this type of games, so idk if it is a good thing or a bad thing.
But I did still enjoy this game, which is what matters. I like the theme itself, the animations, the SFX, well overall I liked it. I think that you have done a great job! And if you consider that it was made by you alone within this short amount of time, it is really an amazing result to show.
It was godlike!
If you implement a story, than it wuld be a 5 star. Maybe the best.
I had a crash, whitch was a bit flustrating:
God job!
Check and rate my game too.
Have FUN :3
