What the HELL is going on
Found it a pretty funny game :D
Ah yeah now I get what you mean. It’s the dead zones of the camera. I’m so used to them (having made metroidvanias in which those are pretty much standard practise, because they aren’t so percise). If I do a post-jam version I’ll definitely test how much better that’d make it. Thanks for the feedback!
Some feedback (negatives first):
Positives:
Hey, I have some feedback.
- I'd make the mouse sensitivity a lot lower, it's currently crazy high on my end at least.
- The music makes me think of a jungle, not anything winter-y.
- The text seems to be just ever so slightly a different color than the actual world's white, meaning I can make out the difference. I don't know if it's counted as it being 3 colors but just something to keep in mind.
In any case, very cool especially for a learning project. The art style works very well, and is very good looking, that's why I clicked on your game in the first place.
Game kinda too easy imo but reminded me of this og classic in a good way
Also pink and yellow is a strange colour scheme, could be improved.
Yo I kept getting issues with some special characters trying to be read, so here is an improved version of the make_clear function, which relies on RegEx instead of replacing:
func make_clear(text: String) -> String:
var regex = RegEx.new()
regex.compile("[^A-Za-z0-9 ]+")
return regex.sub(text, "", true)
I think the idea is great, but it has a lot of issues. First of all pls don't reset all my progress upon game over, man I was painstakingly fillin' out all that info I could've tried again. The dialogue options make me wanna experiment, and as soon as I experiment I am punished for it by resetting all of my progress makes it pretty bad. For a game jam game i think the idea is great, art is great too but the gameplay would've needed like a day's worth of time more polish. Good stuff though. Seems you may win me this year, but We'll Be Back.
