I'm loving this, but I keep pressing dash before turning which cancels the momentum, would you consider adding a period where the dash is still effective? I think I'm pressing both at the same time but the dash is registering first
this is really cool and good but i have spent an hour on midnight killer and it is making me TOO ANGY AND FRUSTATED!!! so i will return to this soon....
It's like a mix between Celeste and Heart Star, and it's awesome. I also love how the icons change after you hit them, this game is amazing. Honestly, I couldn't expect anything less from you, especially since I've been watching your channel for an unhealthily long time.
Awesome! It's nice to move around since you are always dashing in GD. I mean, except for the last level. It was quite hard, I got some deaths, tough, that's appropriate for a nine circles themed platformer! I played the game in one go on the browser and it was fun 👍
I arrived here from the thirty dollar website that I somehow crashed by importing a file of my song "analogical requiem" by converting the midi into 🗿. I mean, that didn't crash immediately so I know it's just because the song was too big 😅.
Honestly, the only thing that I feel is like needed for speedrunning is a speedrun mode which makes you do the 10 levels again and has a time after you beat slaughterhouse (During the slow-mo wave.
interesting... although the ships not resetting doesn't make this a problem since it becomes a dead run with that, but hey... cool platformer, would definitely love to see if this gets a speedrunning lb and/or a TAS run on this.
Still have no idea how people are pulling that off :P Spike hitboxes are small but there's a hardcoded check to see if you're standing on a corner with a spike. But I guess it's not perfect, even thought I tested it pretty extensively
Overall its enjoyable but can be frustrating cause of blind jumps and timings in later stages. I had to look up what level 10 looks like because i kept dying to things i couldn't see which was pretty annoying.
Another thing i should mention is dashing into flying icons - it feels like their sprites are too large for their hitbox. Id often clearly dash into them but fall down because i guess i didn't touch their hitbox? I also found it unclear which blocks would disappear after shifting. Sometimes it was the ones with yellow inside, sometimes ones with a yellow outline, and sometimes the platforms that would shift would be just red. It more or less became a guessing game as to when i should shift, which in later levels felt more like a second thought anyway where the level basically goes "alright, you cant go any further without shifting, so shift here" rather than something you should think about doing like in earlier stages (aka feels a bit rushed but its understandable since game jam and all that jazz, i'm sure if the dev had more time, the levels would be much more polished). Other than that it was pretty enjoyable, controller support is good enough (xbox controller) (not to say its bad, its perfectly good, tho you have to use the stick to navigate through menus; dpad doesn't work in menus, but it works in game), tho i wish restart could be bound to something else personally; its not like that is a big deal or anything, just that i would've personally preferred it on Y rather than back button as an option 🤷♀️.
If you enjoyed Celeste, you'll probably enjoy this as well. Its got interesting mechanics which it uses well for the most part (again, hitboxes felt a bit iffy at times but its not a HUGE huge deal, it was only for that one thing which didn't happen too often anyway) tho some go underused. Strongly recommend you download the game rather than playing in browser cause of input lag (trust me, you'll need it for stage 10.)
Edit: i just watched dev commentary, and yea, felt pretty inspired by celeste, though because ive played through celeste (for the most part (i still have yet to beat farewell cause man i just dont have time lmao) i didnt have issues with the difficulty.. in fact, i appreciated more difficult levels, but not all deaths feel fair because again, blinds jump in level 10. still tho, overall its a good game, comment below me had a good suggestion that there should be a way for you to see what youre gonna have to do later on in the level
Thanks for the feedback! I really do appreciate it, I've already noted lots of things for the next time I make a game.
If I had more time I would have loved to polish the game's camera, the vertical scrolling definitely doesn't cooperate in level 10 but I was a little stubborn about zooming out since I like consistency
Normal icon hitboxes are actually pretty generous, but the jetpack ones definitely need to be wider. 100% agree
You're totally right about not being able to tell which platforms will change when shifting, usually they're styled differently but it changes in pretty much every level. The biggest giveaway is the more saturated outline, but I admit it could have ben done better. Constrained myself to a pretty small color palette for the game.
Controller support was completely untested so I'm glad that worked out LMAO, I had to switch to Unity's new input system to get mobile buttons working and I decided to bind some controller buttons while I was at it

Slaughterhouse is destroying m
oh cool everythings red. good thing im colorblind
why it look like geometry dash in thumbnail
It's based off of the GD level Nine Circles
this is remind me of nine circle
The game is based off of it
Do you think you could add a speed run timer not just for the levels but also for the entire run? Thanks!
Ever heard of LiveSplit?
Hey Colon! I have this bug where after you dash once, you can't dash again. Please fix it!
It also feels like it has a delay. Please fix the delay too!
not a bug
when you kill an icon, that's when you can do it again
COLON
insane demon gg

This game is actually so fun, the controls are unique and easy to learn and i generally enjoy the vibe of this game

It`s a bit tricky, but it`s possible.
