amazing man
made sure to give a rating!
can you check out my game to?
For some reason, I could not get the game to start. I kept clicking "Start Game" but it would not begin. Let me know!
And if you haven't had a chance to check out my game Foxy Boom Boxy, I would appreciate any feedback, thanks!
The level design are too claustrophobic for my liking(or more checkpoints), but other wise this is a great Halloween themed game.
The enemies react differently depending on the lamp, creating the need for back and forth. Each level has it's own unique visual set piece, but the goal always situated at the corners, and the "Keys" always situated at the middle helped reign in the chaos.
As your first officially submitted game, you have something very special in your hands.
Thank you for playing it and commenting, it is a bit short and maps are small, glad you did understand how it works, indeed I left it for the player to figure out the exits and something to grab in the middle, I was thinking on redoing it a lil bit more polished and bigger rooms, yes it needs checkpoints and a bit more tutorial levels before going into more chaotic stuff.
verry similar to my game
which one? torch bearer? well I just went with tipical logic, light scares ghost but then shadows consume light, they chase you and thats it.
What a peculiar little game.
Atmosphere is nicely spooky.
Well done <3
thank you for commenting, glad you enjoyed it, was a bit rushed but most likely will continue adding some stuff to it.
I couldn't use the shovel, but I'm sure the issue is on my end. I might have misunderstood the tutorial.
sorry to hear that, thanks for posting it, the items only have one use for the exits, which are on the corners, I ran out of time and had to finish it kinda in a rush, will try to fix some stuff in the future.
A nice idea with the graphics and audio complementing each other, but a better tutorial would have been nice.
thanks you for commenting, I know I kinda blew up that one , some extra text would have been nice to have, figured maybe it was simple enough but I guess not, will do.
The "pathfinding" control scheme took a bit to get used to; a keybind or even a "virtual joystick" option would be nice (I'm assuming the control scheme is mobile-oriented).
The art is nice and readable. I could generally tell where I could and couldn't walk. The characters are very cute, even on the death screens. The atmosphere is sufficiently spooky.
I think restarting the game on death was fairly excessive, especially given the clunky movement. Resetting the level would be sufficient. I was not able to finish this one.
Good work.
thank you for your feedback, alright I can proably add extra controls in there, will keep in mind just resetting to last level instead of the beggining, I did it because I had no more time left , lol, got busy last few hours, I appreciate the comment, sorry It was a bit hard xD.
controls too hard
I see, touch or mouse? I figured it might be 2 hard on touch devices
mouse it was kind confusing but similar to my game
The. Game is great. Has a retro gauntlet vibe. Stuck on how you beat the blue ghosts though.
thanks for playing it, oh I see, well , the white ghosts get you when light is off, the blue ones get you if light is on :), will play your game and see whats up.
Great game. lots of fun
thanks for trying it, will probably continue on a bit more.
Not sure what the objective is? I kind of just walked around and clicked right mouse button a few times (and saw a ghost?). Help? :(
hehe, mm alright, will add some indicator, but the exists are on the corners, everything is mostly gray and objectives have color :)
Good game but you need to improve the game mechanics! Well done :)
okay, if you can comment a bit more on what exactly you think it needs to be fixed that would help me a lot, also will check yout stuff ;)
I'm enjoying the game, although the character's movement strikes me as a bit peculiar. However, I believe that with a solid UI design and refined character movement mechanics, this game holds significant potential.
very nice game! made sure to give you a high rating!
(can you check out my game to I will appreciate it a lot!)
thanks, will check your game !
The movement and controls are a bit iffy but it's got a nice horror atmosphere. I would focus on the movement, tutorial and clear indications of what the player has done.
If you want to try out my game https://itch.io/jam/gdevelop-game-jam-4/rate/2213787 your welcome to do so as I'm trying to get as much feedback to help me for Gdevelop's next jam (whenever that is) also a rating would be much appreciated.
alright, will keep that on mind, yes I missed adding some short text on how exactly it works, thanks for commenting, I willl try your stuff ;)
