Frustrating in a fun way, I was screaming at my laptop, lol. The art is awesome, so cute, and the music is great. 2182 is my high score! ^_^
I see some people saying they "didn't get to" the quick time event, so I think a short tutorial screen would be useful in case people miss the instructions in the description. And I wish the gun were further back so that I could point-blank shoot trees. It took me a minute to realize I wasn't hitting them, lol. Also I would love an accessibility option to hold down the fire button to shoot, since button-mashing is hard on my joints.
Overall really enjoyed it. Great job~! :3
oh dang, nice high score!! i think you might have the highest of everyone?? my friend got 1500ish and i thought that wasn't gonna get beaten for sure lol. we unfortunately didn't have time to implement a leaderboard. and yeah, a HUGE thing we learned from this jam was to include some sort of tutorial in-game; we can't rely on the description being read like we thought, and it's also just a funner way to learn how to play than reading a description.
thanks for the accessibility tip too! now we know to think more about that kind of stuff in the future.
very interesting artstyle... though im not sure im a fan of mixels. cover art looks really cute.
controls feel smooth and responsive, though the lack of feedback from shooting objects made me 2nd guess if my shots were registering.
Fun game! Actually quite hard to stay ahead of the bear, but that's good. Felt a bit like counter strike with the terrible aim while you run. Got stuck in the ground once, but I was impressed with the level generation
oh man lol, that brought back some memories. i haven't played counter strike in so long and i never got the hang of how the aim worked when i was a kid. thanks for playing!
This looks incredible, I love how you made so many diffrent halftone thingys! The titlepicture is really cool too! It's way too difficult for me personally, I did get past the first tree and that's it, but I bet for people who enjoy that kind of challenge it's very fun because it's so hard.
The game is very intense and I really like it, standing still to breathe is so anxiety inducing but a really well made mechanic, I think the gun could have been placed better and the shooting itself could have been more polished, the movement also is a little rough. I dont mind the difficulty tbh, I like it a lot but sometimes the difficulty was caused by the gun not the game, so I think that can be worked upon. Overall, Great entry, really enjoyed it!
This might be a bit too difficult for a jam game, I couldn't get past 128, and never even got to the quick time event. The trees seemed really difficult to hit, and sometimes I got stuck in the ground, unable to move. I like how quick the respawn is, not punishing you so much for dying and encouraging many retries. However, I just felt frustrated with the controls after a while. I think there are a hundred tiny things you could add to make the controls feel better, like adding a jump buffer, and making hitting the trees feel more reliable. Then this would be an incredibly addicting game. If you keep working on the game, maybe I'll check it out again.
I really enjoyed the absurd concept of being a wild animal on the run with a gun!
The music is energetic and really amps up the tension of the chase.
I had a few issues with collisions on the trees, but that might just be me not aiming quite right.
Great job overall!
putting better feedback for things like the tree trunks getting hit is definitely something we've learned to do for future games. thanks for playing!
A great game, but very difficult.
Not as hard as closing Vim.
In all seriousness, thank you for the feedback :P
Love the franticness of this! I agree I think the shooting should be 360, I understand what you were going for with difficulty but it feels like it would flow slightly better with. All in all solid entry!
Fun game ! I love that the main mechanic is really simple and that there are all thoses sub mechanics, it really makes it intersting. Pacing is really good too, it really gives the feeling that you have to flee in a panic !
managed to get some bug XD
really fun game XD
a bit hard to aim with the pistol
and because it's not able to aim 360 sometime I need to move back a bit to aim better
thanks for the input! the limited aim pistol was a design choice to add difficulty, and so far after seeing everyone's comments, i do think we should have at least made the arc that you can aim bigger. do you know what you did leading up to the bug?
at the start of the game, I tried so hard to turn back and jump over the one that is chasing
after trying spamming jumping and turning back so much, somehow it got spawned under the ground
huh, interesting. thanks for letting us know how to recreate the bug! our programmers are gonna fix all the bugs they can just for some more coding experience. the creature must've buried you in the ground for trying to outsmart him :p
Solid entry. And even randomized levels, nice. I think a custom mouse cursor adds a little extra polish to those kind of games.
Thanks :] Will definitely keep the custom cursor in mind for next time.
Nice little game! For me somehow the background of the game should green?! I took a screenshot and it became white and black..guess my browser goes crazy xDQuite hard in the beginning and jump mechanic feels a bit off. Still very fun!
Interesting, what browser were you using? Someone said Brave had audio issues.
Could you elaborate on how the jump was off, or what would have made it better? Thank you for the feedback, and glad you got some enjoyment out of it :]
I am using firefox. It felt like the jump speed and/or height was not feeling right. But this might just be a personal thing :D
Gimme a dog with a gun and that's all I need LOL. I think the breathing was a cool idea to have something more to balance during the game but the bear chasing me seemed to be moving a bit too fast. Nice work!
I tried it only for a few minutes cuz it gave me a bug, but rly cool game!
would you be able to tell me what the bug was like? i'm curious to know what happened
I dunno if it's my computer or the game, but there was an error loading the game (If I don't wrong, it was an OPENGL problem)
The game is neat! I wish there was a little more feedback in the game, took me a whole before I realized I can break the tree from a comment, Great work overall! Music is awesome and game is simple to understand.
Love the art! Background is so cool! I died like 30 times before I realized I could break the tree lmao. Was trying to pull some crazy dodge moves on the big dude to no avail.
It's a cool idea, it does feel very difficult like there isn't enough time to manage the breathing and the running. The art is nice!
It was so much fun. The chase was a struggle for me. But the balance of gameplay is very good. Is there an end or is it like an endless runner?
(Also, a gun that's just floating in space is hilarious and genius)
it's an endless runner! and yeah lol, we liked the idea of the gun just floating like that, it's silly
I love the art!
thank you! 🙏
