Even if it still takes too long, watching your character move faster makes it feel a lot better.\n\nAlso, how can you have such shiny and attractive looking coins but NO pickup sound effect? I was so disappointed when I didn't hear at least a little jingle or sparkle noise. Also you have to add a lot more coins to the world. That alone would make it feel less empty and encourage the player to go off the main path","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":814405,"author_name":"LDJam user 237588","author_uid":"237588","epoch":1649407672,"text":"Well done with the visuals!

I liked the exploring aspect of the game. I also liked the jump section where you had to jump over the bridge. \n\nA few things you could improve on.\n\nWhen falling down the bridge into the water it is quite frustrating having to start from the beginning. Maybe reset me to the start of the bridge and let me try again.\n\nAt the end of the small dungeon I'd like a bigger reward than just one coin. Maybe a heart to refill my health or just a bigger bunch of coins. Just to make it worth it. Also a nice pling sound when collecting a coin would be nice!\n\nThe fighting felt a bit boring. Also the enemies were so small. I feel they should go down in 1-2 punches. (in my opinion :D)\nMaybe concentrate on one enemy and make it as fun as possible to fight against.\n\nAll in all I really enjoyed playing. Good job!

Impressive graphics, you managed to get 2 enemy types, collectables, and multiple abilities for your character (really liked the uppercut then smash down combo)\n\nHad some serious issues with the controls though (on the gamepad) - there didn't seem to be any dead zone implemented, so whenever I even mildly touched the camera everything started spinning around wildly, so I had to ignore it.\n\nAlso, if you mash the attack button, you kinda get locked into a punching combo and have to wait it out before the dodge roll becomes available. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but I found it frustrating.\n\nLoved the slap sound effects and your little bean dude. Double jump and dodge roll felt really good to use.\n\nGood job!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":830618,"author_name":"Mickxe","author_uid":"mickxe","epoch":1650050392,"text":"Good job!
