Awesome idea!

wrong jam but great game

Submitted(+1)

The 1-bit part done very well. I like that you need to scan the sky because that's where you aim but you also need to scan the reflection because that's where these sneaky dragons are. This makes the game very challenging when the dragons start swarming. Thank you for this game!

Nice game, great core mechanic! It would be great, if it introduce more stuff during the gameplay, but still, I love it! But in description it's stated that it's game fo  1-Bit Weekend Jam :O

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing and for the kind feedback. 

Yes, I thought it was clear and I didn't try to hide it: this was also an entry for the 1-bit jam. It was a perfect fit for the "two" theme, too. 

You think double entries should not be allowed? 

Sorry that wasn't clear to me, I'm pretty new to this whole game jams thing. I'll ask the jam owner to make sure I'm not breaking any rule: I don't want anything like that.

Thank you for pointing that out, it was totally out of my mind.

I agree it fits the theme quite nicely! And otherwise I would have no chance to play it. I don't know, I'm new to jams as well. But it seems kinda strange to me to post games that were not made during jam.

I really liked this. Great use of the theme, and the way a challenge was implemented by having some dragons appear on one side (as well as only being able to shoot from the top half) was genius. I do wish there were sound effects for shooting, hitting the dragons and losing lives, though. Overall, brilliant game!

Really cool idea! The art is nice and the gameplay loop is fun! Well done!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Glad you liked the idea :D

Submitted(+1)

Well done, your game is absolutely perfect!
No complaints ! I had a lot of fun there!
We feel all the work done in the graphics that make it really good!
The principle is excellent !!!
We will still regret the minimalism a little too much but I imagine that the game was made alone or with a limited team so frankly congratulations !!!!!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, greatly appreciated. 

Though, I think the game is far away from perfection :D

Yes, this was made by a one-man-team, and it was quite challenging. 

Glad you liked it :)

The game may not be perfect, but in any case I gave it the perfect score, so congratulations and good luck!

Developer

UH! Wow, thank you :)

Submitted(+1)

i really loved the graphics, so simple but good. the gameplay is fun but lack a bit of veraiety in enemies or weapons for example.

Developer

Thank you for playing and for sharing your feedback! 

Yes, for sure the game lacks of some variation by now. I hope I can get back to it after the jam and add something more :D

Submitted(+1)

The graphic is really good and I like the style. The idea and the theme was also combined really well. I really enjoyed playing it, and it's good that the difficulty level is increasing. Just to let you know my score was 2460. :)

Developer

Thank you for playing my game and for your feedback!

Congrats for your highscore :)

The gameplay is fun and simple, but gets stale after a while.  Aiming at dragons in the water is tricky because the cursor isn't reflected. The arrows sound a little wimpy to be oneshoting dragons.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! 

I definitely need to add some more variation to the attacking dragons. 

The arrow sound... Is the best I could find so far, but your comment made me laugh 😁 I will for sure change that! 

Submitted(+1)

Great game! I got 5850 :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you. And we'll done for your highs core! 😊

Really cool art style! There seems to be a problem with the music's stereo, could only hear it on the left. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback, glad you liked it.

Yes, so sorry for the audio problem, I din't notice it when publishing :(

Submitted(+1)

love the art and you beated me my neck hurts xD

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback!

... and, sorry for your neck :P

Submitted(+1)

Actually awsome

Developer

Thank you for appreciating :)

Submitted(+1)

My right ear needs some love too : (. Overall cool game, nice arstyle and really challenging when later dragons are swarming (Where the heck did they hold so many?)

Developer

Sorry for your right ear :( I didn't notice that until the first comment here about that. Will fix it once the jam is over!

Thank you four the feedback and... have a look behind your monitor, they may be a dragon nest there :P

Submitted(+1)

Great Design and easy to understand controls! this is a great game and the music is very fitting for it, maybe make it sund a bit moroe chiptune-y since the graphics are one bit and the music takes it out of the immersion. But honestly I love this game it's really good!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback!

I enjoy coding and drawing, but music is still out of scope: so I just search online for royalty free music and sounds I can use in my games...

Actually I didn't think of searching for a chiptune-ish soundtrack, will give it a try!

Submitted(+1)

Really good Game, simple but really good! I think I also found a bug where there are dragons spawning in the bottom world but there is not a mirror of the dragon in the upper world

Developer

I'm glad you liked the game.

Well... that's not a bug, it's the main concept behind the game: "sometimes dragons' magic can deceive human eyes..." :D it's what make the game a bit more challenging ;)

Thank you for the feedback anyways :D

Submitted(+1)

Ohhhh Ok

Submitted(+1)

This is actually SICK! Great graphics, music only comes from Left ear for whatever reason but the game is super innovative and just really interesting.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback, very appreciated :)

I must have messed up something with the soundtrack, so sorry :(

Glad you liked the idea :D

Submitted

After I played some more games, it seemed like there were a couple of games with that issue so could be my stuff, could be a strange engine bug with webgl. Who knows haha.

Submitted(+1)

I like the style and good theme.

Developer

Thank you. Appreciated :)
