Ok this is super cool! At first I was confused because the first 5 levels I just clicked each skeleton immediately with no fails so I wasn't sure what was going on. Then I had an AHA moment in level 6 where I got stuck for the first time and it all clicked. This is really fun and the level design and minimalist style are really great!
The atmosphere and sound design are so eerie and haunting! Vaguely reminded me of David Lynch's work. The art style and atmosphere made me very anxious to see what would happen and felt really engaging to me. Despite being very short and simple, this was a super cool little project! Nice work!
This is a really cool concept for a puzzle game! I think having some sfx in the game could elevate the experience a lot, sometimes I couldn't tell if the switch mechanic was working so having a clear and audible sound queue would really help! Also you may want to either lower jump floatiness or just scale up the wall prefabs because I was able to just jump over them in a few different parts (namely the yellow one in level 2). Nice job though this is pretty neat!
Wow this soundtrack is so awesome! I think the roguelike elements are rly cool and its a nice concept. Maybe it was a skill issue, but the jumping felt kinda clunky to me. I had a lot of trouble getting from one platform to the next bc I was either a) not jumping high enough, or b) jumping too high and hitting my head on a different platform. My suggestion to mitigate this issue is having a jump meter UI to help the player vizualize how high they're going to jump. This could be pretty juicy too if it had accompanying sfx. Nice job!
Alright just take the win... but seriously this was so beautiful. The artstyle, the palette, the theming, the OST, and especially that ending. Seriously great job guys.
This game is really cool! I love the art and music a ton! Unfortunately the controls felt a little clunky to me, so I kept getting dogged on, was pressing the wrong buttons while trying to fight. This is really fun despite that, great job!
Thanks for the kind feedback. Many of the exact numbers in Babel such as the heresy thresholds are kept under the hood. We have been experimenting with different maximum heresy values and haven’t actually displayed it in game.
Thanks for the awesome feedback! So glad you enjoyed it! We have big changes coming soon to the way temples work that should hopefully remedy this issue.
I'm a simple man, I see grappling hook.. I like. Love the little animations too! Really fun little game, loved getting a well timed grappling hook swing. One critique is that it would've been so sick if the frog's tongue was the grappling hook :P
The animations and AI are rly well done! Love the music, and the controls felt pretty intuitive to me. My game was lagging a bit but other than that, this was a blast! Nice work!
Thanks for the feedback!! We have some very big plans for this game that are not fully implemented yet in this demo. This version of Babel is sorta the peaceful mode, while the full game which is coming soon features some tower defense/roguelike elements in which you must defend your tower from Angels with archers, and maintain your heresy levels by strategically building temples (the blueish towers). Sorry if these caused any confusion, we left these extra towers in the game simply bc they look cool :D
