Game feels nice to play, almost kind of an Isaac-like in a way. I wish the weapons lasted a bit longer!
I wasn't able to beat it even after a few gos, but that's because I am bad at games 😃
I couldn't aim while using keyboard when my controller was plugged in, so took a while to figure that out, but after that it was nothing but fun! Hard to believe it was made in such a short time.
Dash mechanic feels really great.
Maybe I'll come back and try again sometime
I think it's the best game I played today. The flying eyes are hard to learn to fight melee, but other than that it plays really nice. I love the idea of weapon crafting like this. Whip, my beloved <3 so much ammo an so much range... The health indicator is pretty funny. Speaking of funny - telefragging the wizard summoning you? Lmao
Music is a fantastic bop! The graphics and animations are on point (the dash effect feels so nice)! I don't know what else to say, I just like it a lot and I wish there would be a boss fight at the end (I feel like it was planned, wasn't it?)
Anyway, crazy amount of content for a gamejam game, nice artstyle where everything goes well together and a lot of potential. One of the best games I've played so far. And you even added a cool intro (I love how he spins when he is sucked into the portal lol)
Just wondering, why is the game requesting internet access? Are you gathering telemetry on player behavior?
In any case this is a very strong entry, good job!
The theme felt a bit like just window dressing would be the only negative, but this was a great jam entry!
