Loved the art of the game! The controls were probably the weakest point. I also got stuck in a wall and I lost the shield and wasn't able to pick it up because it went off screen.
As it's been mentioned before; one button to pick up a weapon would be a lot more intuitive. The movement seemed really sluggish, that may have been the point but it just made it a chore to grab weapons if they got too far apart from each other. I also have no idea what the sword did since every time I tried to use it it only worked once (I was probably using it wrong but I have no way of knowing that)
I really liked this take on only having one weapon though! It definitely would be fun to play with a more tight control system and refined gameplay loop. Well done overall!
Thanks a ton for playing and reviewing it I'm glad you liked the idea and art :)
It was alright, needed an indication when you can use the bow again like a reload animation. Also having to having to press a certain number key to pick up the weapon next to you is annoying and unnecessary. It should just be the E key to pick up/swap any weapon your near to.
That's true I'm sorry about the controls and no reload indication as I was working on it I intended to put those changes in but I couldn't in time.
Good game. The idea is nice, but the control feel a little bit clumsy. After you fix that, the game will shine in new colors. Overall, a nice entry. Keep the good job.
Thanks for playing and the review. While developing I wanted to work more on the controls but between that and the other things I couldn't perfect it when I continue on with this though I'll makes sure to take you critique into consideration.
My god this game is tough, but let me tell you, this game hurts you because it loves you. The art is simple but gets the job done, the weapons are not much balanced and they sometimes glitch but now that those flaws are said this game is one of the best of the Jam.
Some may be caught in flashy graphics or crazy concepts but this game will rock your world, the controls are tight, movement is fair and split second decisions are king, you wont find a game that tests your skills like this one (truly testing them, not with artificial difficulty)
Theme is fitting, you can have only one weapon equipped, mine being the bow 70% of the time.
Originality, not a crazy wild content but truly original on execution and tone.
