Cyanea - Any feedback would help a lot!

Hey guys! A friend and I developed a game for a subject at college, and we are happy with the result. 

It is a metroidvania in which the player gains new characters, to apply combos changing characters mid-game.

We are thinking about continuing to develop the game for Steam. Any feedback would help a lot.

I recommend downloading the Windows version.

Anyway, thanks. Here is the game link: https://mikomoares.itch.io/cyanea

This game is really amazing. The visuals and the audio are really good. And it is challenging. I am not even that far into the game and I can't wait to play more. Awesome job.

I'm really glad you liked it!

Hi mikomoares! I thought your game has very unique visuals. The controls feel nice and the level design is good. I feel like it would be better to have a continue button for the intro text scrolls but otherwise, looks very cool!

I had a go also. Great work on the combat, and movement. , although I got stuck when I found this area. I couldn't jump up to the platforms above, or slide.

Hey Mikomoares,

here is my feedback

What I liked:

  • Menu ambient background sound. Suits well to the dark color theme of the future levels.
  • Gameplay background music and Sound FX
  • Visuals and Animations are well arrange to each other.

Potential points for improvement:

  • Changing in the main menu to "Credits" restartet the background music. Are you loading a new scene? It's it hearable, that something is interrupting the background sound. I think it will make the menu expecience feel smoother if this interruption is not noticable.
  • A skip button for the story in the beginning would be great. Especially for players that are really impatient.
  • Skip button for every dialog which pops uo.
  • A kind of State Machine for enemies. Currently I have the feeling that the enemies are not "patroling". As a player, if you reach a certain distance to the enemy, they will always follow you. Even if you are far away, they still follow you.

I hope I could help you. If you'd like to take a glimps on my recent game "Balls of Steel", it would make me super happy to get a feedback. Just if you like and have time for it for sure ;)

Greetz,

Michael
