beautiful art and congrats

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

It was a nice game. The jump and the slippery platform edges tho were a real problem ahah. I also had some difficulties with the jumps since I could not use arrow keys for movement and my hand was "cramped" on the left side of the keyboard xD

I really loved the palette tho.. and the background :D

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Definitely need to work on my character controller scripts in the future lol. Also will work on what keys the user can play with!!!

Submitted

I love the style for this, especially the background just really tickled me lol. The art and sound and everything was great for adding to that 80s feel, my only criticism is that the jump wasn't very reactive and didn't feel great even when it did react 

Developer

Thank you! Noted :)

Submitted

Wanted to love play more, but the jump was not registering for me all the times for some reason? Love the art! Keep it up!

Developer

Thanks man!  Definitely need to work on the character controller in future games.

I found the easter egg :D just didn't knew how to get out of it alive XD

Really fantastic that this is your first game and you managed to do this in 48 hours, legend.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! Glad you found the Easter Egg! There’s no way out of it alive LOL

This is truly amazing work for a first game!! (✿◠‿◠) I adore the sound effects and art design so much.

I would love to see what you could put together with more time in the future. Good job!  

Developer

Thanks! I wanted to make it a Metroidvania at first but quickly realized that wasn’t gonna be possible with the time I had. Might try and make it one or restart with a similar art style.

This was fun! I really liked the artstyle and the characters looked cool :) The easter egg room was amazing too ;) Congrats on releasing your first game! :) Nice work!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you liked it! I found your channel literally the day before the jam started and thought “why not? Let’s do it!” So thanks for inspiring me to finally start getting into game development!!

Submitted

Hey I found the easter egg ye!

Developer

Ye ye! Sweet!

Submitted

reminds me off the old nes games where you are like I pressed the jump button. I did find a easter egg because of the one jump not working though.

Developer

Not the best way to find it but atleast you did lol. Controls weren’t as responsive as I wanted but I’ll get better in the future for sure!

Submitted

Being your first game this is really good for a start. Keep going making games! 

Also, maybe include controlls in your game info, it was a bit hard for me to find out where to shoot, first I thought I had to jump over the enemies and then there was a part where that wasn't possible so I tried every key to shoot, only to notice that you have to push the mouse button :'D

Developer

Thanks! Yea I’ll include controls in the future for sure. I had to rush at the end cause I had to go to work like 5 hours before the jam ended. Lol I was gonna try to have a second level even but it didn’t work out. Next time though! 

Submitted

This is good for a first game! Congratulations on finishing it! I really liked the art and the music/sound effects!

A couple of notes:

The issue with the play button not appearing unless you're in full screen can be solved if you set the canvas to scale with screen size, and set an anchor for the button.

The jump doesn't always trigger for some reason.

A few checkpoints would be nice.


But otherwise this is a good entry!

Developer

Thank you so much! All noted!
