Hahahahahahaha I love the movement that is so silly and cool
this game is so nicely silly! i especially liked that the instructions are written in pirate, i couldn't help but read it in a pirate voice 😆🏴☠️
Arr, it do be pleasin’ t’ be ‘earin’ that yer be appreciatin’ t’ pirate lingo, and o’ t’ silliness o’ t’ ’ole situation.
YAR! YAR! I liked this :D
I had an instance where a fellow pirate stuck to my character and I couldn't shake it off but overall I giggled when the pirates fell laughing :D
A note on the controls: having a WebGL game where you have to use Mouse1 to do the swing attack caused the context menu to show up... I don't know if it's because it didn't capture my mouse though
I had to stop at wave 4 but not because I was beaten... I have to work! A nice game overall, good job!
With the mouse issue - it’s possible to use Q, E, and T to attack as well as your mouse buttons (as mentioned in the instructions), so feel free to have another go at it armed with this new information 🙃. tbf the mouse controls were an afterthought anyway, but I’ll bear that in mind for the future.
And, for someone finding themselves doing a ‘no attack buttons’ run, Wave 4 is a very respectable result!
Still, I’m very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time playing this game, and please feel free to give it a rating as well :^)
But consider adding two different buttons instead of Q and E, it's a bit difficult to attack while moving with those two :D
And I did use the only left mouse button to attack and it was enough :) will retry later for sure!
yeah, I kinda was going for the ‘Lunch Special’ diversifier (playable with one hand) with that control scheme lmao, but still, very valid point.
After the rating period ends, I might go and add ‘arrows + ZXC’ controls to the game as well.
Thanks for the feedback!
welp, I’ve just released an update to it, adding this other control scheme (arrows + ZXC) to the game, among some other changes.
Well done on making a game with a full gameplay loop. The wobbly characters were fun to control, but more feedback to tell the player if a 'hit' with the feather has registered would be good. I like the touch of the laughing pirates, but an impact sound would help the combat controls feel more responsive. I survived 8 waves, is that any good?
Well, there actually are impact sounds - buuuuuuut you kinda need to be listening very carefully for them 😅 (they are kinda quiet and do end up getting drowned out by everything else), so honestly very valid criticism.
I’d say that surviving wave 8 is a very respectable high score. My own high score is 15 (ultimately getting defeated by wave 16), but then again I have the advantage of knowing how badly I bodged together the gameplay (there are exploits I am too afraid to fix for fear of breaking the bot AI again)
welp, I’ve just released an update to the game to address the hitsound issue (among some other fixes)
