It was surprisingly fun. The menus and the combat all moved smoothly so I could just keep clicking and playing, I liked that. I made it to the First boss before dying :-(\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Some suggestions: \r<br\/>- You should make the damage numbers bigger and more colorful - they are the most important feedback from the game right now.\r<br\/>- The victory sound (fireworks?) sounds kinda bad. Maybe you could replace it with something else?\r<br\/>- If you added random sprites for the enemies, this game would be 1.2 times more awesome :-)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Thanks for the game! I had fun!"},{"author_name":"ydg","author_uid":"20868","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 8:11am","epoch":1387181160,"text":"Thanks a lot for the feedback!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- I used the same spritefont for the entire game, so yeah, you're completely right, I should have used another one for the numbers.\r<br\/>- I would have liked to put a little fanfare, but time wasn't really on my side and I'm quite bad at making music and sounds, so I just used that sound to indicate that the battle was over. It doesn't feel much as a victory, right?\r<br\/>- I actually planned to! It's a shame I didn't have enough time though. Fighting the same enemy over and over might get quite boring, and that would have spiced up the game.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And thank you for playing it! :D"},{"author_name":"ncannasse","author_uid":"8497","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 9:59am","epoch":1387187640,"text":"A bit repetitive, but quite the style of game I like :)"},{"author_name":"DanielVF","author_uid":"31898","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 12:10pm","epoch":1387195500,"text":"Definitely makes you want to keep playing, and the interaction with the UI feels polished.

I wish you had the time to make the battles more involving, as now the game consists mainly of tapping Z and the enemies don't really pose much risk.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I tried the downloadble version, and was shocked by the filesize. A whopping 55Mb for a game of this scope! Also, I got a login screen for something called Clay.io, apparently it has to do with the development tools you used.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Good use of retro stylings in the graphics, and I'm glad you decided to add music. Generated with autotracker, right?"},{"author_name":"ExtreLime","author_uid":"27375","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 1:38pm","epoch":1387200780,"text":"It was so simple while i was beginnig to play...

But yeah, time issues.\r<br\/>About the filesize, not much I can do, Construct 2 doesn't handle exporting to exe as well as it should. The Web version is just 2 Mb!\r<br\/>Yes, Clay.io lets you to add achievements, leaderboards (in this case), and such to your game. \r<br\/>Autotracker, indeed!
