Insane amounts of game feel, juice, polish or whatever you want to call it. plays great, a little on the easy side but that's just personal preference. Cool critter designs, incredibly well modeled and animated, paired with charming voice acting. I'm a big fan of the mantis and the revolver shrimp, great work!
Really impressive work. The character models are great, as are the animations. The combat feels really good as well, and is really well polished. The UI is also very nice, with great animations/transitions as menus open and close.
amazing graphics!
Great game, this should replace Roblox
Very impressive to have six different characters with different movement/attacks and specials, I love the different specials when you hit the enemies right.
I do wish the characters moves varied a little bit more and wish the game was harder, once I got the basics down I was able to roll through everyone (actually only died on my first play through).
Hope you make a follow up/add-on
Thanks for submitting
just hit ESC. This happens if you close the menu in the button, minor bug =(
would you please try again?
Ok it worked now! Thanks for the reply!
I think the best element of the game are the vfx - they are top notch. The models are also very good, despite my initial shock by seeing a mantis with boobs xD
The controls are very responsive and the character actions are too, but they do not differ much from one another...
I suggest changing the formula to 1v1. It seems like the ai was dumbed down to prevent enemies from trashing the player - in effect, the game is pretty easy after the first playthrough and it still stands even when the player is outnumbered.
I would show the player the enemy type before the battle, to make the strengths and weaknesses make much more sense, since the player would make a conscious decision while selecting the character.
