My game Ranked 1st place in the 220 Jam on Itch for fun! I’m so happy with the result!

Congrats!

Downloading the demo now.

Brutally honest feedback greatly appreciated

25

I just gave it a blast.

Positive:

  • I like the speed of the main character, and the movement felt right.
  • The feedback mechanisms (at least visually) for combat were satisfying
  • The tone/style is distinct, and quite pleasing in a murky, cyberpunk/industrial way

Less positive:

  • The UI is not immediately readable/clear
  • The scene is quite dark - not always easy to see what’s going on
  • The music is very full on, very quickly: it’s quite a jarring ‘launch’!
  • I know it’s a demo but it’s not clear what my objective is (I assume just smashing shit up!)
  • The audio feedback on combat wasn’t as effective as the visuals

Having some kind of combo/flow/score system for the combat would add a lot, I think.

26

Going to be adding a scoring system, there actually is a dynamic difficulty with the changing icons that affects rank. Going to have to clean that up.

Looks really cool. Is that a top down camera as some kind of radar ?

Good luck bro. I have an idea for an indie game roguelike/lite, is it really involved to make something with say gameboy color or genesis/megadrive tier graphics?

37

Gameboy color and genesis style graphics shouldn’t be too hard to manage from a technical standpoint. Getting the resources for that stuff compared to 3d is a LOT more difficult to get than 3d models and rigs. You can find free game assets on itch.io and OpenGameart.org, but you’re definitely going to be paying a lot more for resources than anything.
