Okay, much better! Nice work on the game improvements. The Yellow color addition was great! Great and catchy song btw. I really like it.
Couple of food for thought ideas:
- Are you planning to have some music for your main menu screen? I think it would awesome to have that song you have playing for your game in the main menu. It’s sooo catchy!
- Are you planning on having something animated in the main menu screen? Like the planets in the background or your main game logo spin? I feel like it would give it more life.
- I find the panel on the bottom left distracting after the first round. I would simply remove it after your first round or couple of successful hits.
- I feel like you have an opportunity to add some tense moments with your music and timer. You could speed up the music when you are close to timing out.
- You could change the color of the timer to red as it decreases down to the last 10 secs
- I feel like adding a -3 or -6 or -10 points on missed color matching would help the player feedback.
- I would recommend Showing the instructions first as a panel with the game paused with “Hit Spacebar to start” also mention that hitting spacebar is the way you connect the color and target to get points.
- I feel like you’re missing more juice when you successfully match the color and target. BTW the explosion sound is pretty solid. Just feel like needs a bit more? I like the use of the camera shake to tell the player it’s incorrect.
- When you move on to the next level keep the song going. I feel like you take me out of the experience when you stop the music during level transition. I’m vibing and crushing keep me in it.
Hope this helps. You’re doing great! Keep up the good work!
WHAT A MONSTER OF A GAME!!!! I Absolutely love this game! Everything about it. The music slaps! The little trails around your player(mint) and turbo on inidicator in the center just brillant! I'm sharing this with my fellow Rocket League friends. PLEASE make a 2 player local-coop PLEASE! Hats off to you both.
Hey Tier 87 Games!
Well done on this game. I really enjoyed it. I had a chance to see it on Indie Game Clinic and I had to give it a shot myself.
I hope you don’t mind some feedback.
Monster Contrast
I find that some of the monsters blend to closely to the board and I don’t aim at them. I’m not entirely sure if that is intentional but it certainly did not feel fair or great in my experience.
Controls During Upgrades
Can I suggest being able to move your camera with A/W/S/D while you are in the upgrade screen. I was playing it with my hand on mouse and my other one on the keyboard seeing as I was using the “Q” ability
Purple Gem Pickup
I wasn’t sure if I needed to pick up the purple gems before the round was over or I would lose them. That a bit confusing. I also didn’t understand the gem count [+x] during gameplay.
The Deathplosions Spikes
Those spikes caused a bit of confusion. I thought they were something the enemy was shooting at me.
Love the Wave System
Visually the Wave Progression display on the right is fantastic along with the boss crown mid way and final boss. Great work there!
“Q” Ability Amazing
What a fantastic idea! I love how it adds more skill based decisions into the game. Great mechanic!
SFX Fantastic
Love your SFX across the board, with the spells, the balls, the UI. Great work!
VFX Fantastic
Love the effects and animations. Great JUICE!
Settings Panel
When I move the sliders in the settings panel it moves the camera as well. ( I can only image you probably have a ton of QoL improvements you’ll add later)
Gem Tooltip
I would suggest tooltip on hover over the purple gem and green gem on the top left explaining a bit about what they do and how to use them?
Border Around Gem Cost
I’m not entirely sure you need that border around gem cost. It looks a bit jarring.
Max Level Border Decor Inconsistencies
Fancier Purple Gems
I noticed that the Fancier Purple Gems node has a Max Level border decor even though I did not max it out.
Burn Node
I noticed that the Burn node does not have a border decor even though I did max it out.
Snipe, Momentum, Wall Power all share the same as the Burn Node as well.
All this to say. I really enjoyed playing your game. Great work, I wish you the best of luck!
