Near the end of development I realized "wait, this attack looks too slashy for a guy without arms" and my plan was to change it into sort of a thunk effect, like if you were headbutting the enemies
I forgot to change it lol
I wont lie that when I saw the page for this game I though "this probably won't be much of a big or interesting game"
boy oh boy was I wrong
the artstyle is really good, I love this simple low color aesthetic for the map, the icons are a bit hard to read (untill much later I thought the accuracy symbol was a K), but besides that I really like the art
the gameplay is very fun, the items you pick up do small differences, but you can feel them during the gameplay... mainly one though
at one point in my latest run (I did two, my first one I got stuck out of the map lol) I grabbed a mitosis, and for some reason on the third floor my balls... just weren't going back to me and despawning, I had a ton of balls and every time I entered a new battle I got more balls, it got to the point where the game was running at 1 fps from the amount of balls I had
anyways, I really liked this game, a bit more polish in the balancing of items (changing stats is good, but again, they can feel kinda effectless) and making them have more interesting effects would benefit this game a lot, and maybe putting a cap on the max balls, maybe attached to the amount of mitosis you get? (like how risk of rain scales this sorta thing)
also, I kinda don't understand the use for the floor map item, its cool to know the layout, but I don't know what's in each room, so it feels kinda like a wasted item slot
in conclusion, really fun game, love the artstyle, please update the page it doesn't do this game's justice
the game is very fun, took a little while to get the hang of things but once you get accustomed to how to hit the fish the right way it becomes easier, I did find some bugs tho
right now your score doesn't reset between attempts, I only got to around 1800 points because my points never reset, so I just kept climbing
after getting a gameover I can still move, and most importantly I can still hit fish, maybe this is in purpose, but seeing how I can't jump nor slide it makes it look like a bug
the music during the main game doesn't loop, if you remain in one match for too long you're just left hitting fish in silence, maybe it could be therapeutic for some I dunno
overall, nice game, really liked it!
