Yeah definitely sad I ran out of time and couldn't get more in, I was literally up until 2:30 trying to at least get something playable lol. The nice thing is I made it a tile generating system, so all I need to do is make the obstacle models and add them to the generator. Thanks for playing, I'm looking forward to continuing development.
Love all the different items you can get! I didn't realize the boregun was only 1 use per battle and had the healing gun equipped as a secondary so I just died lol. It would be cool if you were able to take a turn in battle to swap out weapons/armor.
Cool idea! I've never seen the type of game where you play daily in a game jam. I love the UI, I did also run into the same issue a lot of people have mentioned about the buy button through lol. Thought I was bugged out
For others that can't launch the game and don't view the game page change DESCENT.exe to Descent (BGJ3).exe. I know you made the game in a day, but I think a button or something to get back to the top is kind of required. You move so slowly up and down that it gets boring and tedious.
I think if you're going to keep working on this prototype, there are definitely many thing I would like to see. Music is a big one, a pause menu (a way to close the game), and some sort of objective or goal (since it just goes on forever). I know this was just a prototype, but at parts it can feel unfair since the nuclear waste is randomly spawned and at higher levels they can spawn on every part of the screen really fast.
I loved this game; Its probably my favorite of the jam. Its clearly inspired by Blackthornprod's style with your own spin to the gameplay, which I like. The different planet types made the game much more enjoyable than it would have been by just increasing the amount of them. The crown at the end of the game was a nice touch too. The only thing I noticed was that if you have two monitors you can drag the planets off-screen, much farther than you would normally be able to.
I don't know if you're just learning Unity but if you are, this was a really good start! Implementing custom artwork and making levels and a menu is a great start for someone starting Unity.
I liked the ending cinematic! I do think the movement could have been a little faster though; It felt tedious to walk back and forth. Also a way to close the game would have been nice.
This is a great job for your first ever game! The only thing is the collision between the player and walls. The player will just stick to the wall and can jump off of it. You can fix this by applying a physics material with 0 friction onto the player. This way, the player will just slide down the walls.
I love the randomized stats you can get! You can just walk through the walls though. Also, spawning on top of enemies can be kind of unfair. Having different enemies as you get farther in would be great, as well as having a soundtrack and sound effects.
Dang, if I had friends to play this with this would be really fun. Unfortunately, its kind of hard to play with both hands :p. I really like the music and art design!
I don't know why, but I literally could not download this because windows detected a virus. So I don't know if its just me, or the rest of these ratings are bots or alt accounts.
This was a really hard game. But I enjoyed it! The one thing I think is slightly unfair is being able to be hit from two projectiles and losing two hearts at the same time. I think having a few I-frames would make the game feel much better.
Its a nice simple game and I want to give some feedback. After a while, the game starts to slow down and the projectiles stop coming onto the screen. I'm assuming that the reason for this is that you spawn the projectiles once, then never de-spawn them, which makes then go infinitely, slowing the game down. I would de-spawn the projectiles after they go off screen, then instantiate another.
I like the idea, but there are many bugs, like the Earth just randomly gaining physics and spazzing out. Also, the projectiles being sent back to the opposite side of the screen makes it almost impossible to play. If you miss one bullet its going to keep going until it eventually hits the Earth.
Thanks so much for your feedback! I planned to add more like a live score counter and another planet, but I ran out of time. I did learn everything in this game in two weeks though. My blender models were somewhat buggy and the camera was a bit shaky, but it was my first game and I'm proud of it!
The controls are a bit all over the place and the instructions were sort of unclear, but still fun! This was my first game jam, could you give me feedback on mine?
