Dear Kyle Fans! It is decided - there will be a major update to this game, adding more tools and levels, overhauling UX and taking into account your feedback. If that's something you're looking forward to, follow me or this game on this page (or... whatever it is you do here, I'm new here :p) and stay tuned!

Thanks for your wonderful participation in my project, you all have given me immense motivation <3

See you soon!

Hahah interesting idea.  I like that there's different environments too; I could see this being souped up and expanded on with a physics engine.  Well done!

Developer

Haha thank you! Souping it up is defenitely the idea, especially after reading all of these wonderful comments. Thanks for playing! :)

Hey, since you left such a positive comment, I wanted to let you know that I just released the full version of Kyle's Trials! 😊 Not exactly the physics-engine based model you had in mind, but maybe it's still to your liking ;) If you feel like it, give it a shot, I'd love to hear what you think!

Really nice game.

I would like to have an option to place "blue tools" before the shoot.

Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you liked it! The item placing seems to be a pretty consistent point of criticism and I'll keep it in mind for when I revisit this game.

Thanks for playing! :)

Compensating for Kyle was a lot of fun :P It feels like an old-school flash game. Has a lot of character and handful of really cool mechanics to redirect the bullet. Good stuff :)

Thank you very much I'm glad you liked it!! :)

The game is nice, but I wish there was an opportunity to prepare the level beforehand using the blue items, or a way to switch quickly between the items. As it is, it feels more like I’m battling the UI than Kyle’s poor aim.

Developer (1 edit)

Hey thank you for the feedback. I toyed with the idea for a bit, but wanted the gameplay to feel more reactive instead of strategic. I ended up in a split between "refine UI so using tools on the fly is worth it" and "depart from the original vision and make it a puzzle game". In the end the time ran out and it is what it is. Your criticism is very valid though and should I revisit this game, making the UI more responsive is one of the top priorities.

Thanks for playing!

Developer
