Really cool game. Implementing a proper settings menu, music player, achievements, etc. in the span of 9 days is quite the feat! The gameplay was simple yet enjoyable, the graphics were nice, and I loved the music. I played through the game a couple times and tried to do some achievement hunting. Unfortunately, I ran into a lot of bugs, some of which were game-breaking, so I didn't manage to get all the achievements. The bugs I ran into, in no particular order:
- When playing in controller-mode, I could move with the controller but not attack. I still had to hit Space for that. This also applies to interacting with the trader. Controller buttons work fine in the trader menu, though.
- Things got buggy sometimes when changing settings, and I ended up with no input working on several occasions. Had to refresh the page and start fresh.
- You get stuck on walls instead of sliding smoothly against them, which makes it hard to kite enemies sometimes.
- Music player plays over the already-playing background music.
- In secret rooms with all the gold dogs, some gold piles will land outside the walls and be unreachable. Especially the secret room in the last stage.
- At some point, I stopped being able to buy eggs from the trader. I would try to buy an egg, lose no money, and be sent to the See You Soon page before exiting the shop entirely.
- After beating the first boss on a second play-through, I got a gray screen where the game should be (i.e. I could still see the HUD frame and such) and couldn't continue. The only way out that I found was just refreshing the page and losing all progress, including achievements. I played through the full game again, started another second play-through, and the same thing happened. This is what really stopped my achievement hunt.
Bugs aside, I did have a lot of fun playing this one!
