I played it to get all three endings (I think) and it seemed to get harder, it was nearly impossible to stay on the raft after beating the game, or i just had beginners luck the first few times. I liked the game, excellent audio - very immersive. I would have liked to see the monsters fight a bit but eh its a jam. Good work!

I'm always game for giant monsters, so that's a plus. Nice concept and fun while it lasts. Good sound effects. I like the art in general, but the style mismatch between the pixel art monsters/raft, the waves and the rage meters is a shame.

Developer

Nice to hear that you liked our concept.
Consistent artstyle for sure is important, thank you for pointing out.

Thanks for play :)

Good art. Good music. Controls didn't seem very intuitive but I read below you aimed at a German keyboard. I had to keyboard-mash until I found what worked. I also couldn't explicitly select a type of attack, but I'm guessing that's more to do with key mapping. Needed to Alt-F4 to exit, heh.

Neat idea. It could be expanded upon to stop different eldritch beasts of varying sizes and powers. Good efforts from the team!

Developer

Sorry for the controls. I know its annoying if the controls were created for a different keyboard then the one you are using (on german keyboards, e.g. x and z are somewhat weird but I saw them used in games quite often).
We are currently thinking about how to expand the game, we actually put "more monsters" quite to the back of the queue, first wanting to spice actual gameplay up a bit.

Thanks for your kind words and thanks for play :)

i really wanted to play it but i downloaded it unziped it tried playing it but its just stuck in this screen

Developer (1 edit)

Argh these are more bugs today then in Viridian Forest :(
Have yout tried pushing A or L? We had a german keyboard in mind when setting up those controls, maybe they have different labels on your keyboard?
Oh and what version were you using? Windows or Linux?

Submitted

It worked i just didn't know that i needed to press A or L.I pressed every single other key before.

About the game, it was a cool game with interesting endings, the only thing that i can say about it is an invite to press a or l would have been nice and the game was a bit too easy, but other than that cool art, audio and concept.

Developer

Thats a bummer ^^ Sorry for the confusion, added a remark to the game page now

Im glad you liked the graphics and audio of our game.

About the concept, we really struggled to put Leviathan into one of itch's genre categories.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and playing our game ^^

I like the atmosphere of the game. Some places on the boat are cheated lol, you can stay there without falling. I like the idea of choosing between three spells even if I have the impression that the last one allows me to win every time. I think there's a bug with the music when you win the game. Otherwise I liked it, good job ^_^

Developer

Hey, glad you liked our game.
I have to admit that the balancing of the game sucks in both ways you mentioned ^^
But what about the music bug? I just noticed some static in the good ending, is that what you mean?
Thanks a lot for playing!

Submitted

I had the impression that the sound was starting to loop again in a very short period of time :o

Developer

Which of the two endings do you mean?

Submitted

This one : 0:23

Developer

Argh
That is definitely not supposed to happen :(
But it doesnt happen when I play the game.
I just downloaded it myself and the music was just as it is supposed to be. I dont really know what to do now. Can you try redownloading?
Thanks for pointing out though :)

Submitted

I just downloaded the Leviathan1.0.3.zip. Have you tried to follow the same path as me ? It's really strange :o

Developer

Yeah, I tried
Fun thing though that the UI is that broken at yours.
We had some issues with that but I thought we fixed them.

Mgrgr guess this means some annoying patch up work :(
