Great game. nice sound effects too but i cant respawn but otherwise great.

Developer

I appreciate your feedback alot, thanks for trying out my game :)

Yes it's unfortunate that I have this bug in the game. When you die the game becomes unplayable. I hope that it wasn't too hard to finish because of that.

I'm happy that you liked my game (9-^)

Didn't complete it will complete it soon though.

The game is beautiful and I'm sure you took a long time to program and draw it, but unfortunately when I died I couldn't continue so I had to refresh the page

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot my JoBro :)

Yes it took a long time to implement some of the mechanics because I only have little experience. I could've never imagined that it would turn out like this. I'm really happy with the was my game turned out.

The only thing that bothers me is the bug you've pointed out. I already wrote about it in the description. When you die, the death animation doesn't finish and you can't move which is very unfortunate. I will try to fix it in a future update but it's unfortunate that the gamejam version has this problem.

But I'm happy that you enjoyed the game. The art is from someone else, I just realized that I forgot to credit them, so I'll try to add the credits in the description.

Thanks a lot for trying out my game (9-^)

I really like the story of the game lol especially the part where they break the fourth wall

The AI would get stuck sometimes if the player was moving to fast  and no UI to see how much damage is being taken 

But other then that great game! Good job!

Developer

I really appreciate your feedback, thanks. You're right I need to improve the pathfinding and I definitely need to add some UI-elements.  I really wanted to but ran out of time unfortunately.

I'm happy that you enjoyed the game and its story :)

Unique storyline , I enjoyed this, Great job!

Developer

I really appreciate that :) At first I was unsure if I should shorten the story to have less dialogue in the game because I didn't want to annoy the player but I'm really happy that I kept it in and that you enjoyed it

Nice game!

Developer

Thank you very much my friend. I'm happy that you tried out my game and liked it :)

The game has a weird way to control character but it's easy to get used to, I enjoyed it.

And the story is quite interesting.

Bugs and endings are really unfortunate.

Nice work! I finished the game and had a fun time with it.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I'm happy that you liked the story and enjoyed your playthrough :)

Yeah it's really unfortunate but the ending and the bugs were unavoidable I guess because I joined late and it was my first real game. I wish I could have had a little more time to fix those things but as long as people enjoy this version of the game I'm happy nonetheless.

I'll try to fix the bugs and add a real bossfight in a updated version in the future :)

I really appreciate that you gave my game a try, thanks

Nice game feeling, fun to play 👍🏻

Developer

I really appreciate that you had fun playing my game, thanks. But it's nothing compared to your amazing game. I wish I could've put some epic music like yours in my game

Submitted(+1)

Wow, the game looks pretty nice. Gonna be honest, didn't expect much, but it's actually fun. Could you check out my game too?

Submitted(+1)

By the way, isn't it Gus Fring from breaking bad?

Developer

Yes it is supposed to resemble him :) I tried to sneak in some references to other media I enjoy such as One Piece, Breaking Bad, Will You Snail, Star Wars, etc.. 

I'm happy that you had fun playing my game and yeah I can definitely check out your game :)

very good Congratulations

Developer

Thank you I appreciate that :)

Has a lot of potential. I like having a person controlling the running while the robot does the shooting. The characters have a nice dynamic, reminds me of Master Chief, Cortana, and Weapon. The One Piece joke made me laugh.

Had a couple of times where, in the USB cutscene, the USB would fly off the screen, so I couldn't click-drag it into the port. It was basically a softlock.

Developer

Hey Coeur, thanks for your comment and your feedback. I'm glad that you liked the One Piece joke :), I really love One Piece so I wanted to add something One Piece related to my game. 

Thank you for pointing out the softlock, I think I messed something up with the collisions.

This is actually good. Wonder why there are less ratings tho

Developer(+1)

I'm really happy that you enjoyed it. I also don't know why so few people found my game.  I guess it is because there are so many great games to play that my game kind of drowns in the crowd.

I hope that more people get to find and play my game. But because it's my first game I am really excited and happy that at least some people played and enjoyed my game. Thank you for being one of those overcrafted :)

Love the scenarios ! The story is very interesting and I like the graphic in pixel art ! anyway very good work and thanks for this discovery ;)

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot. I'm glad that you liked the story. I was a little bit afraid that I might have added too much dialogue but I didn't want to compromise the story, so I'm happy that you liked it :)

You're welcome, that's the least I could do. It's  unfortunate that I didn't discover the bug sooner, before submitting - But I hope that you still have fun playing  my game :) (9-^)

I never thought of that. The Charles character model is a little smiley that I used to type in my calculator during math lessons. When I got bored I tried to display smileys in my calculator and somehow this: (9-^) came out which I quite liked. 

But it makes me really happy that it reminded you of Better Call Saul, I love that show
