All art was very well done! Congratulations to the artists / animator.
We try to make pixelart too, but not at the level that you did! haha
Kaol
Apart from that, the game is really awesome. I love the graphics style, the gameplay is fast and the music gets my blood pumpin'. Great entry overall.
Erkberg, thanks for the helpful feedback.
completely overlooked people with different keyboard layouts so its something to defiantly remember. Also, wed love to get a web build up, ill look into it after work because its a bit of a hassle to download the game, especially when its marked as malware, i guess its because its an unknown exe. Anyways, i want to fix the first 2 things as soon as i get some freetime.
Cheers!!
I wasn't expecting the player to be that small though, the background seems very large in comparison. Only thing I miss is some sort of indication for when I'm loosing health. Anyways, great work on the entry. It's a memorable one!
There is just blood at the moment, but if there was more time it would have been cool to have him flash white, or have healthbars or damage numbers u could show or hide.
btw, if anyones having mega trouble just press the 'home' key a bunch of times ;)
