The amount of polish really shows. Satisfying controls with good feedback loop! Great game. (Could you add SPACE as an alternative for jumping ? : ) )

Developer

Thank you Tayo! I really appreciate the kind words. I most definitely can! Be sure to find it in a later iteration of the game! :D

I just need to point out that aiming and shooting animations are satisfying and freaking GREAT!
Nice game.

Developer

Thank you so much kalestri! I think I probably took half of the jam trying to perfect it, making sure the hands alternate and work properly on the player, so thank you so much for that!

Awesome game. Had so much fun. The Boss was unexpected. Great work! Love the art, sounds. Controls were easy but challenging as you had to make sure not to fall off the platforms. Enjoyed a lot playing this one!

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it - I wanted to go for that Master Hand  esque at the end but I wished I could add an extra move to solidify the move set, however I'm extremely happy with how this all turned out. Thank you very much!

Nice game and good graphics.  But the control is a little bit too hard.

Thank you very much tingriley. Would you be able to elaborate upon the controls being too hard? I do plan in the future to have the hands and everything else to be controlled by the player hopefully! :)

I think there are a few things that make players a bit frustrating.

It requires a double jump to stand on the top tiles and the character is running a bit too fast. This makes it hard to control the character to an expected position.

Also, when fighting against enemies on the top,  one not only has to press asdw(and takes care of double jump) but also has to use the mouse. 

The overall mechanism is good, but just a bit too hard for the opening play.

I completely understand your points, thank you! 

I was thinking maybe having a "step" to jump on with one jump to make it easier to go onto the other platforms on all the levels in an attempt to make double jumping a commodity. I can also make the character run slower too, or to introduce snappy controls when letting go of a button causing a complete stop.

I also understand your point upon the mechanism, I did try my best to encapsulate everything into one but will try harder to introduce this mechanism more slower. For post development perhaps I could add a difficulty curve for the game to introduce this more. 

Again, thank you for the kind words and thank you for letting me know your concerns!

Thank you! BTW, your game reminds me of a game called RIVE (don't know if you've heard about it.  Its control is exactly the same as yours.

really enjoyed the game, the music was fitting and fun, and the sprites were, amazing.

Developer

Excellent stuff, thank you so much! I unfortunately can't take the entire credit for the sprites as they did come from packs, however I did tamper with each one of them in some way to create the game. I'm glad you enjoyed!

I really enjoyed the extra polish you put in to Too Many Bullets. It's definitely a game I'm going to put some time in to to be able to see all the other levels and enemies.
Top ratings from me and a follow.

Keep making games Rhysimus!

Developer

Excellent stuff, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I will be sure to add so much more over time. I'll put even more shoe polish and elbow grease for it I promise! Thank you for the kind words!
