nice art style however very difficult to control
I really like the art style of this game! As others have said, its a little confusing and the controls could be improved.
cool game, though I kept getting restarted when the second monster i found threw his javelin even though it didn't hit me :(
Thanks for playing! those javelins are actually rakes and he is placing them on the ground to try to stun you lol. The trick is to hide behind the pillars while he is looking. Then move while he is turned around! He is by far the creature most are having issue with, probably because we didnt explain the hide mechanic too well.
Very cool art and solid gameplay. A little bit floaty controls but for 48 hours its very well done :)
Great game here's my review :
ART
the art is gorgeous ! did you make everything yourself or is that a premade art set ? either way fits the theme perfectly
SOUND
neat sound design, would have loved if there a music that fit the atmosphere
LEVEL DESIGN
Super solid, very well tought out i took notes because that was some great layouting
GAMEPLAY
great mecaniques however not well explained which left me in confusing until i read your comment, would be better if you added text above the buttons you added to explain what to actually do (and that E looked like a C imo lol)
FUN AND THEME
i had a ton of fun would play a full release, and it definitly fit the theme
BUGS
i found one minor bug when you pick up that ball thing and throw it, it's still stuck on the sprite which is very annoying tbh, but nothing game breaking.
All in all good job !
Hey, thanks for your in depth review! Yes the art was all done by my partner in 48 hours. She got talent for sure!
The games weak point is most definitely the lack of tutorial however we are thinking about polishing it up and giving it a full release. Believe it or not, a bunch of animations didnt get put in because i couldnt keep up with her art hahha!
Thanks for playing and im glad you enjoyed it!
Oh wow that sure is impressive, will be waiting for a full release !
Pretty cool! Like others have said it's confusing at the start, but once you get it the game is fun to explore. Ideally there would be checkpoints: since the spear enemy is quite fast and players have never seen an enemy like it when they first arrive, it's very easy to die and having to restart completely makes it hard to learn how to beat his and makes people less likely to want to keep playing. It seems from your comments that you've learned a lot about the importance of tutorials, so keep that in mind for next time! Nicely done :)
Thanks for your feedback! We're definitely looking forward to next time!
