The different molecules are fun, and the keys are subtle but not impossible to find. I'd love a little more work to get the variables/ending working, and maybe a shorter repeat dialog after you've already spoken to the molecules could help the game feel a little more immersive.
The implementation of the battle system is really clever- although the details are minimal, it feels like I can still pick up on what's happening, and the music really helps the overall vibe. It does look like the inventory system (tracking the number of health soups) wasn't working for me, though.
There's a dystopian feeling here, as if I'm trapped in a world of totalitarian soup that controls my every movement. I like the different endings, although I wish you had implemented some exits so I didn't have to reload to explore other options.
The true bank robber was inside us all along! Fun use of the time travel idea- I'd love to see that system expanded to allow for more interactions (e.g. maybe you have to leave the bank to create the accident for the wife, which makes the guard leave).
I like the feel here, but I wonder if maybe the narrative pieces would be more effectively dropped in between waves of enemies, rather than all at the beginning. Sort of like the internal narrative of the pilot realizing these things as they blow up more and more enemies?
good additions to the shmup tutorial, would be nice if the pickup items were tracked/did something in gameplay- additional score, weapon upgrade, restore health, etc. Also, maybe making them drops from enemies you destroy rather than randomly generated? Fun game, though.
intensely hard to "drop the bass" so to speak, since it's constant. I do like this concept of destroying the music, and think it could be interestingly applied with moving enemies, more variation in the track, etc.
yeah, disco ball ftw. with the player movement was a little faster/smoother, but it adds challenge. Perhaps the player could "earn" the disco ball/effects by increasing score? seems linked to time right now.
lots of pixel polish here, and a really interesting mechanic with loads of potential. something about the CLAW typography and the way the ships don't shoot you automatically makes me feel like I'm a super powerful villain (as opposed to lone hero), which is also cool, and could be built into a narrative.
Love the foundation here- cool particles/screen shake, and the "flip ship" mechanic has potential to turn into something really interesting, although currently it doesn't feel like there's a meaningful trade off, as the blue side is pretty amazing. I imagine the end goal would be to have the red shot be more powerful/explosive?
I died many times, but love the timing as the challenge curve feels spot on. Might be nice if Z didn't reset unless the game had ended, as I accidentally reset progress a few times. Also, love the trees growing back at the end.
Dude, this is such an achievement- the number of rooms and art you built is great, and the "abstractinator" idea to move through the body was a brilliant concept. Funny copywriting, too.
it gets a little tedious to run back and forth for tools, but that's the nature of adventure games, I think. great work.
I liked the sandwich making (and the use of multiple scenes to highlight ingredients helped guide me along), but I LOVED the dream sequence work at the end
I love the feeling of walking through the town, and then returning at sunset. Great atmosphere. Also, the maze stuff felt properly disorienting. I felt a little unsatisfied with the resolution, though. WHAT WAS THE PLANT?!
I love the color work on the different worlds, but I couldn't figure out how to get to the bar? I just end up at the mansion, and confront the blueberries. Still good vibes, though.
