hey,

i have an update for this game. if you would like to try it out let me know.

Thanks for playing and for the feedback. When you mention gravity are you talking about when you leave the particle ring or when the rock wall ring inside moves you? There are also rocks that are designed to blow up on you and push you in a direction, so maybe that could be the issue. I believe I fixed what you’re talking about just not sure what you exactly mean.

I designed/tested most of the game on my monitor which is a lot brighter than my computer screen and realized the darkness and other problems too late. I’ve updated it quite a lot this week which has changed the feel for the better and fixed a majority of the problems mentioned and unmentioned.

For instance, spamming charge is a necessary skill as the boss rocks can now dodge after the first health bar zeros out. Also, it helps collecting items or getting out of danger when dash bar is low.

I haven’t played this version since I’ve uploaded. I’ll have to download it to see what you’re entirely talking about.

It’s funny to me that people find it trippy as that wasn’t the aim for the game. I only wanted the map to move to the music. Thanks again.

The overall feel is stunning and the gameplay allows for a lot of creativity. My only suggestion would be to change the point direction for the bubbles in the tutorial so that the player has a better grasp on what is being said.

Very cool concept with simple and neat art. It took me a minute to test the attacks playing solo. Definitely would play with friends. Good job!

Thanks for playing and for your feedback. I didn’t give myself enough time to implement any dialogue which would’ve helped with the confusion. I’ve already implemented some visual cues to help the player know when they’re damaging the boss. I’m curious if you were able to hurt the boss enough for him to fly around the map?

Thanks for playing and I appreciate the feedback. I’ve already made a bunch of changes and it will definitely be more polished once I’m able to update.

This game is awesome and has very satisfying feel! I’m digging the visuals. For more control maybe you can add power ups or acceleration to destroy more blocks and move enemies.

Thanks for playing and for the kind words. Once I add the dialogue I believe that should help guide the player as I plan on letting Rokku essentially “hold your hand” through the beginning.

This is very unique and fun. I can see this game being used in schools with fun teachers.

Good stuff! I like the music, art and overall feel. Although, I was able to clear a stage by sitting in the death menu then spawning to defeat the boss. I was expecting the bullets to be more limiting. I wish I had more control of the bullet rate. Keep up the good work.

mine is incomplete. Feel free to leave some feedback anyways

Well Done! It reminds me of an arcade shooter. I think the shield needs a boost or item drops to increase as it felt too limiting. The art is consistent and the design is fun. I like how the shipmates keep you engaged.

thanks for playing and the feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed something within the game. I apologize I didn’t get to finish. The map does move to the beat so that when the sound is low the map becomes confined and expands when loud. I see few games do this so I gave it a go. This is why there isn’t a WebGl version because the AudioSource api I use to make that effect aren’t supported. 

Thank you for the feedback and thank you for playing. That’s my fault for not adding enough tutorial elements. I will add those elements in the update next week. Although, in the most recent update I made the moving platform to have “stickiness” so Rokku moves with the platform upon landing. Would you mind checking out that detail out and let me know if you come across anything else? Thanks again.

Hello,

Thanks for playing and for bringing that problem to my attention. I have a few solutions. I just have to feel out which works best. I’m going to work on it today. If you find anything else that feels problematic please let me know.

thanks for playing. I’ll be updating it until it’s finished. I plan on updating it weekly. I’ll definitely have a mobile build soon

hey,

Thanks for the feedback. The mushrooms will be used to make ore but I haven't implemented it into the crafting system yet. The mushrooms pay a heavy price so you can carry nothing else after carrying one.  At the moment you'd want to avoid the mushrooms at all cost and avoid the spores from growing by hitting the cap before the stalk sprouts. The branches from the trees are the only materials that can be crafted, only because I haven't finished many of the tools ore unlocks. Were you able to pull up the crafting Ui?  I apologize for the convolution. I didn't leave enough bread crumbs and I'm not a fan of the conventional approach to tutorials. Let me know if that helps or not.
