PS. The UI is bigger than my screen!
@cancerous @nick-rasmussen Thank you both for your input, it is quite challenging. The goal is to time the platforms with the peak of each jump, but I will need some refinement on the challenge factor :P
@fat-cat @marbles @ironygames @virtuaworlds @colan Thank you all for the feedback, I am glad you enjoyed my game :D
Some gameplay elements I really liked:
- How the character goes up no matter how it touches a platform, "breaking" physics
- The acceleration of the platforms prevents the result of clicks from being too predictable, which I think would make the game too easy
- The skins made me laugh :D
Suggestions:
- A combo system would be cool, giving additional points if you hit another platform while still going up or before N seconds
- A visual cue of where the platform will spawn according to mouse position would help
- Maybe gravity should be a bit stronger
Congratulations!
@juxipolo My fiance had pointed this out to me while we were playing the game after I had submitted, I just laughed really hard at the velocity the character was going when she did that! I will fix this in the remake I am making for expand-ability reasons. She was overjoyed that some of the players found out the exploit XD
@empty-set I am currently remaking the game to expand this to be a mobile game with the positive feedback I have received, I will be sure to make this addition for better player feedback. Thank you for your input!! :D
@chief141 My fiance had made the art and was very happy with how it came out! She was very happy to hear you liked the graphics! Thank you and have a nice day :)
@igor-kingamer Thank you for all those suggestions, I like the idea of a combo! I am remaking the game right now with expand-ability for the mobile stores. I will add cool X2 and X3 etc.. multipliers as you progress or if you hit a certain amount in a row. I wanted to do that in this one, but time got to me because I only had 48 hours due to other things in my life haha. Very well said, and I will make sure I take all suggestions into consideration.
@marot @sypdev Thank you very much! ^_^
To all who have played the game. I am remaking the game to add your suggestions and I hope to put this out to the mobile game stores! :D Thank you for the continued feedback! It really is helpful and encouraging!! ^_^
@staircase27a Thank you for the feedback! Glad you tried it out, I am working on the controls to make them easier
