Hi! I just released my game Bilo: Essenol and I'd love it if you could give it a shot. I worked really hard on it but I'm not too good in marketing... 

I'm new here on itch and I really want to keep making games here but it's disappointing to not have any players... 

I like the way everything turned out but I know I can still improve so I'd love to hear feedback for my future projects.

anyways here is a link to the game I really hope you'll like it:

I think this game is great! I especially enjoy the art style and the cozy vibes. It has a lot going on for it, but there is one major weak point I mentioned in the game comments.

The way I got more players for my work was to give other people feedback to help them improve. It's a nice way of giving back to the community, and a cool way to play some awesome games!

I have a thread here https://itch.io/t/3058834/looking-for-playtesting-trades and would prefer to post there if that's ok? Any hows cool game with lot's of potential enjoyed playing.

It's not very polished. I just play through and say whats on my mind.

I just finished playing your game, and I really enjoyed it. I felt that the controls were a bit too sluggish; I think it would be nice to make the player controller more responsive.

I really liked the music; I thought it matched the game's art style very well! Congratulations on your work!

I've also developed a platformer game if you'd like to check it out https://guarana-studio.itch.io/super-cat-jump 

Thank you!!!

I'll check out your game when I'm free

I just had the chance to dive into your jump and run game, and I must say I'm impressed! Your art style is captivating, and the game's concept kept me engaged throughout my playtime.

One thing I noticed is that the controls feel a bit floaty, which I suspect might be due to the use of velocity for movement. Tightening up the controls could make the gameplay even more enjoyable.

Your game design is on point, especially how the initial levels serve as effective tutorials for the core mechanics. However, ramping up the difficulty a bit earlier in the game could add an extra layer of excitement.

I also appreciated the combat aspect of the game, but perhaps implementing a cooldown on the attack could prevent button spamming and add a strategic element to the fights.

Overall, I had a fantastic 30 minutes of gameplay, and your game shows great promise. 

Thank you for sharing it, and I look forward to seeing how it evolves.

Thank you so much!!
