LOL, You use the same assets that I use

Thanks for the submission! Great idea for a game. Controls are solid and I like the assets. Some audio would go a long way. Having the camera pan a bit forward to where the character is facing will help with moving around in the world.

Submitted

i love the idea of the game!

Submitted

I found the treasures!

Hey, 


great game. The Art is awesome! 

Please turn up the walking speed a bit as others mentioned before.

Like the idea of walking over your own corpse. 

Overall a great submission to the jam!

This is pretty good for your first game. It could use some polish like music and sounds, and at least some "You found the goal" screen or something like that.

Submitted

Good game, I like to style, I did seem to get stuck with no way out though but good work!

Submitted

Played and rated.

It's unfortunate there was no music or sound. The gameplay was smooth I enjoyed it, the art is coherent and good looking.

I didn't enjoy as much dying and having to restart all the way back because of the movement speed.

Overall a good looking game with smooth gameplay, that lacks audio and faster replayability. Good job for this jam! :)

Would appreciate if you check out and rate our game as well: https://hadilepanda.itch.io/rise-of-necromancy

Wish there was some sound. I would make the spikes bigger and easier to see. I didn't even notice they were spikes on the ground for along time and was wondering why I was dying so fast and easily.

Submitted

Nice idea, a game where you literally have to die to progress fits the theme nicely. There's a lot of "puzzle potential". Good work!

Submitted

You had me so fooled. I was sussing out the controls and thinking "hey, i can't jump". Then had a double take when I had to walk over my own corpse. Really clever idea, thoroughly enjoyed :)

Submitted

The game is really fun and I enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately, I had a few problems with the download but at the end it worked and I had a nice gaming experience :-)

It's a very good looking game, I don't know if there is no end, but I think I reached the end (treasure room) but nothing happened, was that to be expected? With a little more development it can be a very good game

Submitted

Good loking game! I cant help to compare it with "Use Your Head". With a similar game mechanic.

Submitted

Nice game everything worked fine.

Submitted

Cool game! I enjoyed it and I liked how it followed the theme. Although I do think it could benifit from some audio. 

Would love a rating in return! https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-jam-2022/rate/1552379
