An awesome mechanic with a lot of potential, the roguelike feelings it emanates are powerful
Fun game, the voodoo doll mechanic is very creative and I've enjoyed the gameplay a lot.
Also, the game has dodge roll as a mechanic. I love that. Game of the year.
I had a lot of fun playing this game! I absolutely love the concept of manually modifying the doll mid-fight to deal more damage, I think it's very creative. Gameplay overall is fun and doesn't feel repetitive. The only negative remark I'd have to make is how at some point the waves are just overwhelming the player with tons of different monsters which is absolutely necessary for this game but I thought it was a bit too much.
But overall, I'm mostly impressed by how this was made in only 5 days!
Game is good, juicy and fun. The voodoo mechanic is really creative. I also enjoyed the opening cutscene.
You can move faster when moving diagonally. If this is not intended, you can fix it by normalizing the players movement vector.
Had some fun playing this one. Tutorial almost made it feel too complex but once the game was running it was all good. I do like the idea of the voodoo doll changing impacting the damage type. Very fun to work with that idea. I think if the interface to polish it up you could have something really good.
I loved everything, the gameplay is very original, the music makes it sound very epic and the intro and home screen are super cool, I didn't even realize that when I stopped playing a couple of hours had already passed, I had fun cX
