Yo, this is sick! This engine adds a whole new layer to square-based design. I tested rectangles and they work. Every day I look at the Game Assets category to see exactly this kind of project!

Nice shaders! This is strangely soothing!!!

This is the best kind of asset -- both the graphics and code are most elegant. d(^^)

You're a lifesaver!!!

To keep this review short, this asset has capabilities I would have paid hundreds of dollars for if it were independent software. Of course, this regards my own hyper-specific needs, but the result is beautiful. I've only played around with the basic settings, I haven't even got in depth like the screenshots yet. Definitely worth the purchase for art minds!

Interesting timing -- I was just looking for something like this!

I'm commenting to confirm the download works for me.
Anyway, this a lovely set of UI SFX!
Details like this really help shape the feeling of a game. d(^^)

Nice work!!! Especially impressive for your first pack! It's one of the most professional I've seen, actually. d(^^)

Nice and simple. I was looking for exactly this.
Of course I found it by accident, but I'm glad I did! d(^^)
Thanks for sharing. :)

Cool game! The presentation is awesome and it had interesting worldbuilding with the Egyptian theme and the two sentences I read of dialogue.

I don't play Rogue-ish games that often but I was able to pick up what to do fairly quickly.

I somehow got 16,000 Neon, and by that I mean I got it on purpose with my effortless level of skill. I didn't mind of course, as it gave me the opportunity to try all the toys.

One improvement I would add is to dramatize enemy deaths.
I noticed they fade away but it's a subtle effect.
These weapons look and feel powerful, I WANNA SEE BADDIES BLOW UP!

But yeah, this is impressive stuff. :)

This is awesome. I've been figuring out how to approach my Overworld and this really helps a lot. (Ironically it structurally resembles one of my first attempts, but this is made better.) Good job!!!

The overall direction of this game was lovely!

A little more hand-holding is needed.
I got to the end without knowing the mechanics.
Although I realized what was going on at the last puzzle, I couldn't solve it.
I reset because I thought the fire fairy got yeeted.
It turns out I didn't retrieve the fire fairy at all! I got to see a new area, at least...
I suppose user errors are better than technical errors.

This is a jam submission and it is beatable, so I'd say you focused on the right areas.  
My main suggestion is to add cues for everything the player would want to know.

As for the experience, though? Great job!!! This was pleasant! :)
I hope you get a chance to make a full game one day,
I believe it would be really something. d(^^)

Cool asset!

Is there a 2.2 version available?
I use 2.2 primarily for a variety of reasons, and it sounds like this engine was made for that. I'll be able to the explore everything in-depth if such a version exists. :)

Absolutely awesome asset. Cheers!

I'd rate this 5 stars but I rated it 5 stars already so it gets 6 stars.  

I was happy with the program before, but I saw a new version that lets you export all of the sprites from a project. This is extremely useful for me. I have thousands of sprites, which would take hours to export one-by-one, and now I can get all of them in and out with ease. Sometimes the best things in life are free.

Really good, especially for a school project!
You've got a great engine here.
I looked at your source code and its airtight.
I'd have loved to have something like this when I was starting out.
(I'm finally at a good place now, and I'm releasing my own prototype soon, but I had to go completely overboard to get there.)

You have an extremely solid base here. That's important! 
You better get an A for this. (* ・ω・)☞

This is a really lovely asset! The PSX shader is an awesome touch. :)

I've already been working with a 3D GML engine  that I've made many modifications to, but it's increasingly clear that it's unsustainable for two reasons: collision code not allowing a lot of objects and the difficulty of making levels.  Oh, if only I could work with something that hadn't become so weighty and convoluted...that was the then times.

Enter the now times, and I have found the perfect solution!
It is clean, light, and best of all, has the potential to look very pretty!

I'm  actually working in GameMaker 2.2, but I have the Beta so I bought this to have a quick look-see.  It seems easy to convert the code "downward" and I am feeling most optimistic.  d(^^)

The old way was still worth making because I should be able to translate its core merits.  After I release my prototype, I'm excited to see what I can achieve with this!

Designing games should be fun, and what I'm really after is adventure.
This engine can provide that! (¯▿¯)

The hits keep coming!

I'll see if I can integrate a few features here into the FPS Engine.
That should be an interesting experiment. :)

<<<SPOILERS>>>

You technically beat it by closing out of the game...you may notice a letter missing at the end!

Indeed, this one-letter game has a twist ending. The sign says right but the road goes left!!!

Thank you so much for playing! I'm really happy you liked it! :D
Good feedback is the hearts' desire of all game developers. d(^^)

Thanks for the feedback! It's good to know this style is engaging. Expect many games like it!

I checked out your game too. I love its elegance. d(^^)

Cool asset! It's really pleasing. :)

Every time I look you up there's a top-of-the-line asset to be found. I would have bought this day one had I known.

You can't keep getting away with this!

Way to raise the bar! I don't even play Souls games, but I know a good asset when I see one.
There's just so much. I'm excited to unpack it, though. I wonder what the GameMaker scene would look like if something like this was included with the program? Anyway, great work!  d(^^)

Awesome asset! 

Templates like this are surprisingly rare to find, and that's before the fact this is a true NES-quality game. 

As of writing, this code is an hour fresh, but I can already tell I will be making something I can actually sell with this.

Thanks for playing! I hope it set the mood. :D

Part of me is like, "Ahhh, play the full game!", but this probably encourages downloads way better.
Besides, I know what it's like to play a bunch of jam entries...
It demands a lot more stamina than people would think! @u@

Even your abandoned works rank among the best GameMaker assets! d(^^)

Trust me, I've searched far, wide, and even deep.

Thank you for sharing these. :)

Pleased to hear you like it! It means a lot. n_n

Only my other games at the moment! I've composed hundreds of songs, so it'll be a while before all of them will be made public. ^_^;
I do plan to release a music CD one day, once I gain professional traction.

Now that you say that though, I am inspired to include a Sound Test feature from now on. d(^^)
I'm thinking of doing an enhanced compilation of my "hobby" games, so I'll put it in retroactively too. :)

EDIT: I think you specifically meant this game's music, in which case, the enhanced compilation idea still applies.
Instead of an in-game function, maybe I'll just attach every OST to a dedicated music folder! :D

Glad you enjoyed it! d(^^) 

Half of these songs are a decade old, in fact I almost forgot a couple of them even existed until this game.
It's really satisfying to know they've finally been brought to light, thank you. :)

Charming! :3

Neat! Solid game overall. :)

Sweet game!

I love the animations and diegetic puzzles. :>

Real cool. d(^^)

Fun stuff! Very addicting. @u@

Short but satisfying! :)

Thanks for the advice! 

I was thinking of revisiting MM after I'm done with all of my current projects. I'll definitely include your suggestions in this game and more!


EZ!

Fun arcade-like game!
