Nice game idea. :)\nI really like the art style. The music fits the game nicely. \n\nThe collision detection and hitboxes could be improved, quite often the boomerang was flying through boxes without destroying them in may playthrough. Also having some sound effects when throwing the boomerang would make the overall audio experience a bit better.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"joni-jarvinen","author_uid":"1054718","time":"2020-04-25T12:22:00Z","epoch":1587817320,"modified":1587817320,"text":"Certainly a very nice looking game.

The fixed version aka, the version that was made during the jam, but lost thanks to git had fixed the issue, fixed the audio overlapping and every video. Yes, the creature is buggy, since it turns out, the programmer responsible for the throwing did it in just simply adding a force to the object and waiting .1 seconds x10, without even using a loop.

Maybe it would be nice to have some restoring points to restore full Pandonteus's HP, otherwise the game was a little bit unforgiving :laughing: Also it would be cool to have sounds for throwing the boomerang, breaking crates, returning boomerang to give more deep into game to the player. \n\nP.S.

Concept was nice, but the overall game is a bit confusing. Some suggestions: it sometimes felt like the boomerang touches the box but doesn't break it.
