I just didn't think this genre was gonna be my cup of tea at first, but there's lots of work behind this and it shows, and I was surprised I ended up replaying so many times!

Hi! I spent a couple of hours playing this. I was unsure at first, but the game is just pure fun! Keep up the good work my friend!

Thanks for the feedback! That's fair, this gameplay style is a bit hit or miss and  I may have to rethink if the first section of the game is the best to showcase its potential (too few powerups and general variety to play with).

Regarding the controls, you are right, maybe some visual tips here and there scattered through the first level wouldn't hurt :)

That's true! And it's already more than a week after the release!

Cool! But why?

It should be obvious for a relatively unknown developer that a demo is usually a chance to gain some trust. Specially when the screenshots and trailers are unable to reflect how the gameplay really feels.

Stupendous! but where?

You can try the first 20 minutes or so and decide how you feel about the game. Download the demo right from the project page:

Thanks again for your feedback! Regarding the thunder rod, it does actually hurt the orcs, but it does only 1 hp damage so beating the big ones would take forever. The flying skulls and a couple of bosses are immune to physical damage, so in these situations you'll need to use the rod (or, spoilers ahead, the fourth weapon you can get if you saved the imprisoned orcs and retrieved their map as a reward), (end of spoilers) but most of the time the sword will be the best fit if you got the upgrades, or even the gun when you want to deal with lesser enemies from a distance.

Hi, thanks for your input! Don't worry about the save, it's in a safe location and it is compatible with both versions. Not sure about the resizing issue, I will have to test in a similar setup, but the new version is still worth a try since it improves controller support and fixed a bug that may appear in an optional quest.

Thanks for your feedback! I'm planning on uploading some minor updates and fixes asap, so I really appreciate it. Does the same happen when resizing the window, or just in full screen?

Edited: I just uploaded version 1.1.2, which should solve the gamepad stick issues (I tested on a ps5 controller and steam controller, I should get an xbox one in the near future).

I think the black screen issue should be fixed by now, but otherwise I'd like to know if something else is running that may be trying to capture the full screen (obs studio is an usual suspect), or any extra information you could share (OS version, graphics card, etc)

Thanks again!

Sorry, I forgot to reply! Thanks for your feedback.

Thank you.

It's this one, but I thought other users may be wondering the same. Since these contents are somewhat just for completeness I thought it could be wiser to postpone them in favor of visibility, but after thinking about it for a bit, I think I should just deliver as much info and content as I can.

Hello there!

I published my first paid project about 10 days ago.

I've read the docs as well as many other threads asking "how long will it take for my game to be indexed?" so I'll just wait a little longer. But I also read some actions may delay the review further back the queue. What actions could these be?

While my game gets indexed I was thinking of doing some of the following things, but I'm wondering if they'll delay the indexing or the game may get unlisted again if I do them later:

- adding additional screenshots

- adding some extra information to the game description, such as controls

- adding an external store link (google play, steam, etc)

- uploading new files, such a manual or a demo

Thanks!

Cool N64 vibes!
