Raven Knight Geist by KaiserCrimson1

[raw]
made by KaiserCrimson1 for Ludum Dare 45 (JAM)

GeistScreen1.png It's nothing special, just a prototype for a 2D platformer I've got in mind. I put this together for LudumDare 45. It's my first time, so the game is pretty basic, but I hope my passion for the project is conveyed clearly!

It's quite short but I dig the art style at display here, it's a nice combo of beautiful and cool!! I don't really like how far to the right or to the left you need to be for the camera to move, that makes it really easy to bump into an enemy without time to react. The game could also use some sound ;)

I'm excited to see what can come out of this if you decide to work on it post-jam!

The art is awesome! I really liked all the sprites and the animations. Hopefully we can see a longer version in the future :smile:

Great graphics ! Like Catusfelony, I found the camera hard to play with.

Having the player centered on the screen would really help with moving around and fighting enemies. Your web version does not mention spacebar to jump. It was short, but it has a lot of potential. You knocked it out of the park with the art. Good job and keep it up!

@catusfelony Thanks! Concept was the only thing I had going for me, so it's nice to see that someone else liked it!

I actually downloaded bosca ceoil to try my hand at music, but never got around to it in time. It's next on the list! ^_^

@dafral Thanks!I'm hoping I'll be able to make it longer as well! ^_^

@okkolobr @kushimoto @hkspadez Sorry about the camera. I didn't know how to properly center the player in the middle of the screen at the time, but I'll be working on improving it. Glad you liked the art though!

@ulisses Sorry about the lack of content. By the time I finished up the gameplay, it was too late to add in more levels. My next jam will have more content for sure though!
