Sacrifice Plains by thegreentofu

[raw]
made by thegreentofu for LD 43 (JAM)

Screenshot (21).pngScreenshot (20).pngScreenshot (19).png In Sacrifice Plains you must sacrifice yourself to the Native's to continue the balance but when the colonists arrive and destroy the balance you must sacrifice them to restore it.

Bug Fixed - Boss is now killable

I had a lot of fun programming this and have implemented things I have never done before so I apologies if there are any bugs that make the game unplayable however this was definitely a new step in my programming skills​.

.exe doesn't do anything when I click on it :(

@toast-toaster sorry to hear that sometimes anti virus software prevents games I produce from running mostly because they are just a .exe file you might want to check its not being blocked

Once you jump on a group of enemies you will repeatedly bounce of their heads and it becomes a waiting game. I love the 8bit-vibes, though :)

Nah it's not blocked. Have you looked into ways to get certificates? You might be able to avoid that problem in the future.

It is as kruemelkeksfan said. I like story which you choose, but i cant see it much in game itself

@kruemelkeksfan @drlizard the reason it exists was because the player would get stuck if they landed on the top so and at the time it was the only idea I could think of to fix it however if I continue to work on this I will definitely find a different way of getting around the problem

Final boss seems to be "unbeatable" :(

Look I jump on them!
Amazing work. The game is a bit storical I love that! The American invasion against native after few days was a big surprise and true at the same time.

@xorboo this is a bug I had experienced once and told one of my team members about they said it'd be fine to leave because no one else would get it and I listened to them because we where running out of time it is possible to complete but this is definitely something I'm going to fix as I try to make my games at least 100% completable

Interesting concept but the easiest way to finish the game is just jump in the head of enemies and wait they die.
And final boss he suicide himself. He jump into me when I was in the air and I got stuck in the air with him on my back, and he received damage until he die and got unstuck

@jcpd This game contains a lot of features I haven't done before which is why its not the smoothest of games I'm going to try and smooth them out in the future

@nakami I managed to do that whilst testing it is a bit of a cheat so I will try to fix it in the future

An easy way to fix my mentioned problem would be to stop restricting bullets to an horizontal flight path and instead let be fired freely in all directions.

The first 3 days is unnecessary just waist of time

I liked it until i was unable to win due to super boss with infinite HP
also this:

"I trust you it is not a virus its just a small game I made and besides I don't even have enough skill to make a virus or anything like that. So don't worry if it doesn't show up and have fun"

makes it sound like are actually adding something to your files.

Yep... There are definitely ways to improve the game to make it less broken. For example make the cowbows move towards a point a few units away from the boffalo rather than trying to match buffalos position... Though I must admit watching everyone to rush under the buffalo while it merely bounces on their heads was hilarious.

Also... it would have been more honest to give players a win screen, instead of this BS unkillable boss which doesn't die despite HP being 0.

Good effort and excellent attempt toward balancing the systems!

@hilvon ah I might have forgotten to change a piece of code in the boss as I was running out of time thank you for the tip though because I want my games to be completable at least

@catbutt as I was writing that I told myself "this makes it sound more suspicious" I only chose to do it because one of my games ended up looking really sketchy so I thought I'd put something to say otherwise but yeah I should probably get rid of it

Love the theme of the game and the balance between systems is done well, there are a couple bugs however overall it is a great game :D, hope you have the time to rate mine too

Nice game! With a better art style and some more polish this could become really good!

Fun theme (kill the colonists :v: )! I'm not sure if it was the intended strategy but for most of the combat I was bouncing off of the enemies which got repetitive pretty fast. Agreed with other comments, the beginning feels strange, like I wasn't sure if I was messing up or not. The music is super fun -- good job!

Where is the theme is this game I don't understand ? And after the first boss what happen ? because after him I was block in the level.
The musics are very nice and the graphics too.

@pat-farnach that was the intention for combat as it was a method I hadn't tried before it wasn't the best but it was definitely new for me but yeah it isn't the best way to do it

@hystaf this game is a demo so it's short and buggy to complete it you need to pick up the bullet the boss drops the theme is inspired from how native Americans saw buffalo and would only sacrifice one at a time
