My biggest gripe was definitely the visuals. It was difficult to identify power ups and some of the main menu's interface because the images were too similar in brightness and saturation. It was also just not very appealing (sorry). That being said, everything else was pretty damn awesome. The music was really good, and fit the game perfectly. The relentless horde of enemies, and loss of space due to their littered dead bodies was fantastic. I also really appreciate the varying demons (size\/functionality), kinda felt like \"Doom Guy\" :P. Wasn't a big fan of the dead corpses being pushed around by other demons, but it didn't interrupt the game too much, was just a minor annoyance. \n\nWell done guys.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Pace","author_uid":"1099548","time":"2018-08-14T23:37:20Z","epoch":1534289840,"modified":1534292269,"text":"I love how you avoid the powerup-hoarding problem by making unused powerups turn to stone (immovable stone, no less!) and by only allowing you to hold one at a time. However, I wish they all acted consistently, i.e. all took 1 left-trigger press to use instead of some of them being push-to-activate and some of them being hold-to-activate.\n\nBugs (other than the obvious bugs that are crawling all over the place:\n- sometimes a stone bug will move, I think it happens when a red one teleports in and I immediately shoot it\n- when I'm standing on a powerup and my current powerup runs out, I should pick up the one I'm standing on instead of having to walk away from it and come back\n\nThis is one of the most fun LD42 games I've played - it has a lot of potential!
