Really fun stuff! A bit tricky and unfair(ish) at times but fun anyway!
Managed to beat the final form stuff on my first go. Which is good cause restarting and being force fed that intro sequence over and over again wasn't really fun.
Dang that 1+1+1-1-1 etc question was hard as hell. I always kept messing up where I was going when I needed to do some dodging and had to start almost from the beginning again. And that was the question I didn't even remember the answer to on next try either and had to do it over and over again. 😅 But there wasn't really any punishment for just rolling and trying out random numbers expect for the final question of course (I guess).
Loved the art style. Very Binding of Isaacish. Pretty much the only thing I can even remotely complain about is the lazy player character animation in comparison to everything else. That same scaling animation would have worked miles better if it was done pivoting to the feet so it'd look more like actual breathing instead of just pulsating everywhere. Same for the walking animation, would have made more sense to do the rotation around the feet position instead of the center. Oh and even the itch page background was amazing too! 👌 Loved the font choice too, very fitting.
The audio was also flawless. Nice tunes and good effects. The music really got me properly hyped for the action. Even the text appearing sound effect was nice which is often an overlooked element. Somehow it makes it more interesting to follow the "conversation".
The controls were a bit floaty in my opinion. Not a huge issue by any means but could have been a bit snappier with less inertia. Also didn't feel like the dash mechanic had a use at all. Maybe if it offered some invincibility frames but at its current state, it was just completely unnecessary.
The hitboxes might have been a bit iffy too. Most notorious in those spiral plane attacks which you had to either hide behind the dice or just out range em. Hiding behind a dice seemed a pretty hit or miss as sometimes a bullet will clip you anyway which didn't seem really fair.
Yeah, good job! 👍 Ended up playing it through few more times while writing this. 😅
