Thank you! glad you enjoyed it. Those bats are absolute savages, so you've gotta roll like mad to escape :p

If you stab baddies, you can make more hearts from their remains.

...I'm aware of how dark this sounds.

Over 150 total from the Legions team :D

You did a phenomenal job. It's a massive scope for such a small time, and you should be really proud.

21 is still a huge number. If everyone did that many, every game would have 60 reviews (Assuming average team size of 3)

79 is so impressive!! Nice job :D

The Drop is really excellent.

Actually that's the easy part :D

It was really fun to write the music! It's basically two songs written on top of each other and some clever code to allow them to change in volume with the combo multiplier  :]

Thank you for playing :D

I also love going fast. It's my favorite.

Gotta go fast!! :D

I think it's super satisfying to fly face first at mach speed into a legion of enemy ships with the beamsword on. Glad you liked it!

Thank you for the feedback!! The background space dust was actually on our "polish list" but we didn't quite make it to that one. Did you manage to change the music in game? It changes based on your score multiplier  :)

Hahahaha that makes me feel so much better about not being able to finish my playthrough XD

It's sort of like ghostbusters, but we're skipping the middleman haha. Thank you for the kind words :]

You're awesome!!

The one that got me really bad was if you hit a spike it sometimes just teleports you into it 3 times and kills you, so all spikes are a death sentence haha

Thank you! I get stuck too hahaha. There's already an updated build that fixes the issue but it obviously can't be changed during the voting period. Thanks for checking out the game!

Thank you very much!!

(You should know I played your game a lot. It's super cool)

Exactly what the title says. It has been really fun, but I think I'm at my limit for playing. I won't ask people to trade me ratings or anything like that, but if you appreciate the work I've been doing it'd be nice if you checked out LEGIONS and Xenon. I composed the music for both games :]
 
Cheers everyone!

Side note, are there any games that really stood out to you as potential winners?

Rapidly went from "Oh this is a pretty chill game" to "F*** THESE F****** ASTEROIDS JUST LET ME GET MY GOO BACK F***"

Well played. Well played.

I didn't make it to the absorbing part of the game, since I immediately got rained on with bullets hahaha. Is there a strategy here that I'm not understanding?

236m for me!! good job on the game! It's really fun and unique!

Pretty fun. I made sure to have a run over 80 points with each weapon :]

In almost every run, it seems that I'm dying to enemies spawning on top of me, but for 3 days of work this is wonderful. Really fantastic job!

I like this game but the balancing and bugs are too much for me, so I've given up.  I want to come back to this game when it's a bit more polished, so hopefully you keep working on it. It seems right up my alley in terms of gameplay. Can't believe you got this far in only three days. Good job!

I'd just suggest that you allow variable zoom levels and attach it to the scroll wheel. Combine that with a button that centers the camera on your character while held, and you're in business :)

This game is really fun but also incredibly frustrating because if you accidentally jiggle your mouse one single atom backwards (like repositioning it on a small mousepad would cause) you lose because you "bit yourself".  I hit 2k points, which I thought was pretty okay, but I'm not sure lol. How'd other people get along?

Really interesting and unique take on the theme. I wish the timer was longer so I could absorbie more orbie.


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

I'll check it out after! Thanks for the laughs :D

Really cool concept that I'd love to see finished. When the invisible timer runs out, it brings up a non-escapable scoreboard so you have to reload the page to try again.

Okay, I was actually cracking up the whole time I was playing watching this. Your dialog was super enjoyable. It crashed at some point and I couldn't finish. Would recommend to a friend.

Big platformer fan. It felt pretty solid, but it feels like your doublejump occasionally just fails, so I'm not sure what's up with that. Smooth and straightforward :]


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

WOW - hard to believe this was made in only three days! One of my runs I got soft-locked by two cells fighting and had to restart. Had fun making my Bob the Blob a god >:)


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

Great job on your first jam! The game does start a bit slow but otherwise is solid.


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

I also forgot to mention how much I love the look of your main character :D

It's a great game, but 3 days is a really short time to polish something

Fun little game. It's fast and satisfying to shoot 4 baddies at once sometimes. The health doesn't seem to work, which is unfortunate because it shortens the run to <30 seconds. If you let yourself die and restart your health goes negative, but no matter what value of health you have you still die in 1 shot o_o

Really fun game. I wish it was a little bit bigger, and that there was a little bit of transparency on the score, since I completed the game several times but can't get to the top of the leaderboard D:


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

Title screen and map looked great - especially the title music. I agree that the camera angle is easier to play with when zoomed out fully, however it was fun to bounce around! Had a chuckle at the screaming astronauts :)


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

I suicided at 20k points. The game is really fun, but the difficulty doesn't scale so once you figure out the mechanic you can run it forever. I love the concept, but the sword mechanic broke really early into the run, so I was stuck at little baby sword forever :[

Great job with the game. Absolutely wonderful and with a little polish no-one would ever know this was for a jam.


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

This game is so much fun. I'd normally be sad about the empty background but in this case it actually helps line up the mouse clicks. I'd love to have a way to "get back into the game" after getting struck by lightning though, since it feel's like once you lose the big score multiplier your score is done. One of my favorites I've played so far!


-Submitted LEGIONS and Xenon- (Itch doesn't show both)

I actually love this game!! It's very clever and perfectly built for mobile. I do wish the leaderboard let us enter a name so I could fight for the top spot.

Good job getting something released on your first jam!! Music is a win!
