Nice graphics and the music is cool. Gameplay is nice and i love the stacking mechanics (just like cs go) :D

Developer

Cheers!

visually, this game is amazing! Everything from the title screen, to the level & character animation, to the die screen looks great! Using having one person control two characters is a pretty difficult mechanic to master as a player. While it is hard to get used to at first, I was able to get used to it and be able to play the game fairly well. Overall, good job!

I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)

Developer

Thank you! Will check out your game.

The visuals of the game are just great, you are immediately drawn into the game, and the sounds serve it nicely. My only remark would be that the shooting, and particularily the aiming part of it, lacks in intuitiveness, as it's really tough to rotate well in order to shoot enemies quickly. Once that's fixed tho, the game has great potential, and leads to really comic situtations, as you are yelling to your partner to fuse in hurry to defend the fire :)

Overall, great submission, and fun cooperative game !

Developer

Thanks for your feedback, glad you enjoyed it! Yup, definitely a few things to tweak with the gameplay going forward.

The art and music fits perfectly together. Very nice game. Good concept and fits the theme.  But it is very hard to play solo.  But well. That also fits the theme of the jam, right?

Developer

Thanks! Yup we had also considered a 1 player option where the difficulty was set a little lower.

I had the same problem with my game. I wanted it to be against a timer, but that made balancing for one or two players difficult so I decided to go for a "optimize your moves" design.

loved it, nice game. i love the aesthetic. its can be pretty confusing to play alone, better bring your friend to play this hahaha

Developer

Thanks! Yup definitely easier with a friend.

I love the idea and mechanics and the art! It was really fun to play. My only real critique is that it was kind of hard to figure out exactly what to do. But that's something that could be easily fixed/changed. Great work overall!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

the atmosphere was great. playing this alone was quite a challenge. Kinda sad some of the stuff like music and certain assets where not made by you. Kinda have to remove points for that part

Developer

Thanks! Yup fair enough, we just didn't have enough time to create everything from scratch so put all our effort into our own art style.

No worries! I had this lack of time too when creating our game, most with our tutorial D:

Really great and polished game. I really enjoy how teamwork is so crucial to success. A lot of fun!

Playing alone was a hell of a task (couldn't get very far). That being said, did a great job setting the tone. Solid game!
