EZ GAME by LIMZIJIE
Survive and earn highest point by killing some mob(fireball) in the games. Aiko Chan will be the anime character(PS : Self made character) you use in the game. Be careful of the enemy which will decrease your points you earn and attack you until you're out of Health point. Caution: health point will NOT be shown in the game. Your health point is part of the point. You can only determine the points keep decreasing when you take damage from enemy.

The controls did feel off at first, but then I just imagined the WASD to be a mapped to a gamepad which allowed me to control the character as I wanted.
On first playthrough, I just kept slashing at the enemies, and that worked most of the time. Survived long enough before restarting on purpose.
On second playthrough, I just kept lightsabers open, and circled around enemies, trying to hit them in an arc so the lightsabers collide with enemies. Sure enough, this worked a lot better than before. I was getting fewer "hit" sound effects and scored 1k+ rather easily. Restarted for another try
On third try, I stood still. Enemies didn't move but it looked like they were still being spawned at the center based on the particle effects and lights.
Overall, I enjoyed some good old slashing of enemies. The jump/roll felt smooth as well, but less rewarding cuz of no special attack patterns. I still enjoyed just using the strategy in 2nd playthrough to crush enemies mindlessly :)
then I understood how it work and
then again I found that it's possible to just run through enemies with saber on to kill them and this point it lose some of is interest. :/
Does this game have some point, or just survive through one scene?
Aiko-chan sometimes moves in other direction I want her to go ~
Unique idea, well done :slight_smile:
@nakami Running without hitting is a hack for the game, but still you might get damage from the enemies which attack you from different angle.
@noobexception This is a survival game and just need to survive through one scene and the end of result shows how much you get when you are survive.
By the way, thank a lot for spending your time in playing my game and your feedback. I will try to make the game even better in the future. :)
By the way, thanks for playing and your feedback.
- I think third person camera behind the character would work better, with lightsaber attacks on the LMB. As it was, it was very hard to control where the character was going.
- I found it easiest to kill enemies by standing still. The animations for lightsaber swipes are in the z-axis too much, so make it harder to kill enemies in a lot of cases.
I think this will be a lot of fun to play once you've polished it up a bit though. I hope you will keep working on it.
