Thanks for the very detailed feedback. I agree with everything you said about the controls being tucked away and the candle enemy being to advanced for how early it appears. Making the controls front and centre would also fix the not knowing you could shoot problem. I’m pretty bad at making any form of AI more advanced than just constantly chasing the player but I’m hoping to experiment more with that in future jams. Thanks for playing!

I’ll definitely try that. Thanks for the Feedback!

Thanks! I think I’ll update it soon.

Sorry I misread the rules, I didn't know I needed it to run on emulators so I am going to leave the jam.

Basic question, my game uses mouse controls it would be horribly inconvenient with keyboard controls. I know that the NES used button controls but if the dpad controlled the mouse and a was left click would that be sufficient? If not I think it won’t fit the wii very much apart from the pointer being the mouse.

Yeah I did want to go for a game like getting over it, but I agree I would lower bat health and the amount I put in. Also that jump you got stuck on is impossible on 60hz monitors so that might be your problem. Thanks for the feedback and for playing!

I will play your game as soon as I get access to my pc (in a few hours most likely)

here’s mine: https://itch.io/jam/vimjam2/rate/1195108

Warning though it’s impossible on 60hz unfortunately 

Thank you for the kind words!

Hmm maybe the dash is more useful than I thought, on my second playthrough I used it a lot more, but the game never taught you what the dash did in combat so I just never used it I guess. Also I should note I preferred using z and x for attack and dash because that’s what I’m used to in other games.

I should have included in the description that you can double jump, oh well fixed now. I’m pretty sure that might have been your problem. Anyways thanks for playing!

Amazing dude! Movement feels good and the boss is the best I've played from the jam so far. The only thing I can say is the dash feels a little bit useless and the last section before the boss is a bit enemy spammy, but overall absolutely incredible game!

The game is pretty fun, although a little bit repetitive. Also it's a bit hard to see because of the textures on the buildings being so small. Anyway fun little game and good job on making it!

Hilarious and fun! Did run into a glitch though where I fell out of the layout and was falling forever but still good job

Thanks for the advice. I probably should have made it easier and I actually did but I didn’t want to make it too easy since the game is supposed to be similar to getting over it or other games similar to that. Also all the art is 16x16 I just changed the size in engine and I understand now that was probably not the best approach. Thanks for playing!

Aw that’s unfortunate. Thanks for playing though!

Yeah I wanted it to be like getting over it. I agree that the bats do feel a little unfair. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice little game, really enjoyed.

So awesome man

This game is awesome!

Alright I have decided to change some of the earlier jumps because they are pretty hard

Cool game, but the camera seems a little too high and some jumps are completely blind because of that but great job

Hey your game is pretty fun! I like it a lot but the jump feels a bit finicky and I would prefer if it didnt boot you out to the level select when you died but overall nice game!

This game is very enjoyable, played it with two of my friends and it was so much fun, I hope you continue to update it
