Amazing game here. Love the overall presentation and sfx. Definitely feels very gameboy-ey while also being incredibly polished
However, I do have a gripe or two with the combat. It's probably just a skill issue though.
I'm not really a fan of how aiming yourself is also a part of movement. I kinda wish you could aim yourself to attack between turns, and only move, attack and block during a turn instead of aiming yourself as well. This was mostly because every fight in the game came down to me trying to aim myself correctly instead of actually having to worry about the enemies.
The boss was cool to fight though.
All in all, I'd say this was a fantastic entry
( SPOILERS AHEAD : )
F in chat for those two other crew members though. I also found an exploit for getting infinite money ( sort of )
The presentation hooked me like a fish and the gameplay didn't disappoint! I love the rhythm game style combat and the music really ties it all together. I'm looking forward to finishing this one!
You can never go wrong with an adorable robot. I'm pretty terrible at rhythm games, but I enjoyed this. I was grateful for the generous checkpoints. The music and graphics were A+.
I don't play these kinds of rhythm games, nonetheless this was very good. Polished and enjoyable, good job!
Wow, a Rhythm game! What a nice surprise! I would love to play more.
I think I found a bug: sometimes enemies can enter in the same tile as the main character, then I couldnt attack it :/
One of my favorite subgenres is straight-faced grim sci-fi where one of the primary characters is a very cute robot.
In all seriousness, fantastic work!
Really polished game experience, although I don't like rhytm games, this was a good game. Amazing job you guys did with this.
this game made me realize I had no sense of rhythm, maybe make the controls less punishing for noobs like myself?
art, music, and gameplay were all gorgeous and polished
Wow, looks and sounds amazing! Definitely a Gameboy feel to it. No idea how you made a game look this great in such a short amount of time, great work!
Only issue I had is I couldn't figure out what to do, I want to play it so bad but for some reason the game play didn't stick. Maybe if you continue with this add a tutorial that allows me to retry things and not have to start over.
Also, please add Gamepad support if you do more work on this, I'd love to play it with a gamepad as I am not so great with playing games with keyboard/mouse. Maybe that would help me be able to play. LOL That and in Godot it is SUPER easy to add gamepad support. Also kudos on doing it in Godot, I'm just now learning it and enjoying it so far.
Thanks for your kind comments. Combat system is a bit confusing and I should definitely add more explanation to it :). Its a bit like crypt of the necrodancer.
Looks great, brilliantly polished but I just can't really do much in this game. Just kept dying all the time.
This game is absolutely great, It's very complete for a 10 day build and the art is spetacular!!! Congratulations on the great work!!!
I really like the graphics and the sound desing is great.
really cool game!
Great little game, certainly a fun concept! At first it took some getting used to the feeling of the controls and their timing with the rhythm, but the sliding drum rhythm of the music helped with that.
AWESOME!!! Such incredible work for such a short amount of time. The passion and hard work is very apparent, and I would love to this become a bigger game in the future!
Really awesome game. Great story and beautiful art. It was so good that I just had to complete it
The pixelart is awesome and the game is pretty challenging! Really love the idea of a rythm based movement system like Crypt of the NecroDancer! Music also works great with the game and all in all it’s a pretty fun game!
The controls in the game are not very comfortable, but otherwise it is very well done
Neat visuals, definitely reminds of Gameboy!
It would be great if movement in non-combat scenarios was snappier and faster. The idea is great, took a bit to get used to. Beautiful presentation, very nice soundtrack.
Excellent work, congrats!!!
