I have to say, I have never encountered such a polite Zombie in any game! Or work of fiction for that matter.
Fantastic feel to this game! The sprites, the menus, the attacks, the concept of a Hand-Merchant that needs it's rings. Even the little borders around the characters, and the variety of different playable characters. So cool! (although I have to say, the Vampire is my favourite design and gameplay-wise)
Since I see you have a bug list, I wish to share this: maybe adding a "pass" turn could help solve this issue? Because I could not move, so my only option was to quit.
Fantastic work! Well done!
Thank you so much for all the kind words!
The zombie is indeed a bit too polite, ahahah. I had different dialogues in mind that I didn't manage to add in the end.
Anyway, there's already a pass button, you just need to press space. I wrote it in the tutorial section and in the game page, but it's not obvious at all, especially considering that all the other controls are much more intuitive and mostly mouse based. I should have added a specific on-screen button, sorry for that!
Now that I see your profile picture better, are you the same person that asked for suggestion on the same icon in the Artindi Discord server?
ooops! Thank you for pointing it out! I will try playing it again! I suppose this allows me to place my troops on a strategic location an slaughter everyone!
(I should have played more attention to the tutorial, sorry 😁 )
Haha it is me! Nice to meet you again! Do you use the same name on discord? I am away from my home computer, so I do not recognize your name (other than it belonging to a critically acclaimed Akira Kurosawa film)
Thanks for reaching out!
Thank you very much!
The positioning issue seems to be the most prominent one indeed, I will surely change how rooms and movements works soon. I knew about the uncollectible loot, but I still can't find the reason behind it. In any case if you move away from that spot then you can go back in the unaccesible tile, so there's some sort of workaround.
Thank you very much!
The Hand reappears cyclically after 4 floors, I wanted to give the player the opportunity to grow stronger in a periodic way. I decided to show the hand that soon, despite not being able to buy anything, to give the player information about the meaning of the rings and an additional objective.
Thank you very much!
It's a shame that the game froze, there are a couple of nasty bugs that happen quite rarely and randomly, so they're quite difficult to spot. Did you by any chance pressed the merchant buttons more that once or something like that? Because in that case I'm already aware of that bug.
I totally agree with you on the rooms, they're always the same and mostly empty. I plan on adding much more content in order to make them more dynamic. Also, I really like the idea of tiles that give you advantages, thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks for the kind words!
I'm actually quite surprised that people are appreciating the lighting effect, since I thought they were not that visible or polished enough. It was also stupidly simple to create them, just put a Light2D node and play around with the settings. I think that similar kinds of effects would look great on your game too!
