I loved the way you applied the concept of invincibility, since the player is invincible until they no longer want to be, simply by lying that I wasn’t hit.
This happened in my game too, I basically doubled the speed on everything to fill the gap, because I was running out of time since the game jam was ending.
Thanks a lot for playing and for the detailed feedback — I really appreciate you taking the time to write this!
About the pricing: the “name your price” setting was left on by mistake during submission. While it doesn’t break the jam rules, I agree it’s not ideal for a jam environment where accessibility and feedback should come first. I’ll make sure to keep it free during the event and only consider pricing after it’s over.
Regarding the doors: that’s a completely fair point. The lack of a tooltip/clear indication is on me — I can see how that made it confusing to understand that they were interactable. I’m going to improve the UI and add a proper prompt so it’s clear that you can open them.
About the download: while the jam rules do allow a Windows build, I understand your point about convenience. A browser version or easier access would definitely help more people try the game. I focused on getting a stable build submitted in time, but I agree that improving accessibility is important and I’ll aim for that in future updates/jams.
Thanks again for the honest feedback — it really helps me improve!
This even happens on my computer when I was testing if the installation was working. You can fix it by clicking on “more options” and then “install anyway” or something like that, but I can’t force you to do that.
Thank you so much! I was going to make the Samurai Time in Unity, but since I don’t know how to use it, I ended up giving up and going to Game Maker since I’m more familiar with it. So I admire you for making something so good even with a new engine!
I really enjoyed this game; it reminds me a lot of those arcade games, but it would be more fun if the player didn’t have to walk exactly over the orbs to collect them.
Please rate my game, and I’ll rate yours. I really put a lot of effort into the jam and would be very sad if I didn’t get enough reviews or even a mention :(
Hey friend, thanks for replying first, but let’s say I’ve already sorted out the music part, I’ve already composed and programmed all of it, so I don’t really need it anymore, but if you want to exchange contacts,for future projects, here’s my Discord: prxciosx.
I’m currently working on a game called SamuraiTime for the GameName Jam and I’m looking for someone to collaborate on the soundtrack.
About the game:
SamuraiTime is a fast-paced action game with a focus on time mechanics and invincibility. It has a stylized samurai theme, leaning a bit toward a darker atmosphere.
What I’m looking for:
Someone who can create immersive music that fits different moments of the game, like combat, tension, and calmer sections. A style inspired by feudal Japan would fit really well, but I’m open to ideas.
Collab info:
This is a jam project, so it’s not paid, but you’ll be fully credited and it can be a good addition to your portfolio. I’m open to collaboration and creative input.
If you’re interested, feel free to comment or send me a message.
