Hi chizel9000! We are glad that a played our game especially on Twitch! Our team is currently busy improving our game but I can assure you that we will watch it together. We are also hoping that you will play our game again since we are continuously developing and improving it with your feedbacks! Thank you!
This game was pretty fun and looked great too!
It was fun to just go around and beat everything into a pulp and grind exp to level up.
The game itself did feel a little buggy, like enemies moving around and attacking weird, enemies spawning outside the map or getting stuck, or the fact that I'd lose all my stats on death but still keep the same level and enemy difficulty.
Overall though the game was a fun little beat em up, good work!
Outstanding work! its great to see that you guys are continuously Developing this! here is my feedback
Bugs: i only encountered a visual bug where the heads of the enemies goes through some walls and some enemies escape through walls
Gameplay wise The system is already there and it really is quite great and adds a bit of depth to the game. the animation and controls are fluid, although as with the other comments here a bit of visual text cues on what is being improved if i selected the Agility,Strength or intelligence. but overall this is one of the best game in the jam! i cant wait to see the update that gives me access to other rooms!
Suggestion: if guys could add a ranged enemy that would be awesome!
Nice job on this! I think I'm noticing that you guys might've gone too far into the breadth of the game for the time constraints of a jam, which is forgivable, so I'm not going to dock my scores for the lack of content. I think that this sort of game has a lot of potential! I think the art was quality and the sound design worked well. I think that each of the classes is fun and distinct, with the only issue being that I think the mage feels underpowered. I do think that the gameplay could've been designed better (although its foundations are good!). I think the main issue is that there are a few things going on that aren't communicated all that well to the player, namely enemy attacks and your dash cooldown. The former would probably work a lot better if the skeletons only did damage at the very end of their headbutt animation, but as it stands I think they do damage as soon as the animation starts (correct me if I'm wrong). All in all very good work for a game jam!
Hello Aidan Myers,
We really appreciate your feedbacks for our submission. This is our first game together so we tried to make the game as personal as possible. Please follow me or our devlog since this game is still on early development, so future updates are expected. We will try to implement your ideas to our game ASAP. Thank you and stay tuned! :)
I like the art and the audio. But I don't really get what I have to do in that game. I just always die. After some time I figured out that I can find a weapon - but that doesn't help me that much. I tried it as warrior, assassine and as mage. With the mage I could survive the longest. But I really don't get how to escape this room.
It also feels unfair that I can't dodge the enemies. Ones one is close to me I'm more or less dead. If I use rmb he just moves with me. Also I don't really understand what happens after you die. Are the stats in that case become randomized? Or do I loose points?
The game should inform the player more. Also in regards what those attributes mean. I would assume
strength: health
agility: move speed
intelligence: mage-power
But why should I skill intelligence as warrior/assassine? So I'm not sure if my assumeption is right. May you could also display those stats somewhere.
You were able to build up a pretty nice atmhosphere which really makes me wanna progress in that game. I'm not sure if I'm just too stupid to use the "bright door" or if I can't find the key. I thought that I have to fight enemies - but they never dropped something.
So please make the game at the beginning more easy. For me it is really too hard and I really want to see the other rooms + follow the story.
Let's see what future updates will bring. I now follow you and added the game to my collection. Then maybe one day I will escape the vault :-)
Hi Tomate Salat! Your feedback about our game, really helped us a lot! Thank you for the time you've spent playing our game!
We have made a Devlog of our game https://a-t-r-i-d-o.itch.io/dark-vault/devlog/282520/dark-vault-v12, in here you can see our recent patch and what updates we had made. Hoping for more of your feedbacks, Stay tuned for more excitement! :)
Outstanding graphics, I love the animations and color palette. It feels buttery smooth. I had to go through multiple playthrough as at some point I died a bit too many times and my character was just too slow to be able to kill anything, resulting in death at every enemy. Other than that I love the premise of the game and thought this could be an awesome dungeon crawler with more levels. Awesome job!
Hi Gad! We had recently updated our game, fixed player stats, nerfed the enemies and many more! You can find the updates and what's coming next in this https://a-t-r-i-d-o.itch.io/dark-vault/devlog/282520/dark-vault-v12. Hoping for more of your feedbacks, Stay tuned for more excitement! :)
