Elementities by Helco

[raw]
made by Helco for LD29 (COMPO)
Elementities is a game about going deeper into cave, fighting against others with your small Elementities,
creatures which you train like pets, just for fighting and not for sitting and staying.
And why? To get rich and famous, that's why!A crazy mix between Rogue, Pokemon, Zanzarah, maybe even Binding of Isaac.
Thanks to emscripten you can play it in your favorite browser or download it for windows.

Awesome game. I loved everything about it except perhaps the combat. I think it would have been better if the combat space was smaller. It took forever to get shots on him.

Nice text game. But i found some bug. AI can select for battle already killed enemies. At this moment enemy disappears(because it's dead?) but it shoots

I really enjoyed playing this and the ascii graphic style worked well. The only suggestion I have is that maybe the battle/fight spaces could have been varied.

Really interesting, the concept is really cool and I love the fights.
After defeating one enemy, I ended up fighting myself (or someone with the exact same name), bug or feature?

Combat was a little too tricky to hit the opponent, but wouldn't say it was too difficult to win. I really liked the content and the idea. Good job

It really has a Pokemon-like feeling to it. However, the battles were not very entertaining ; it seemed the enemy was moving at random and only shot me because I was trying to line up with him to shoot him, which proved to be quite hard. I felt like the enemy's "keyboard" was more responsive than mine :S .
The randomness of levels and elementities was also a nice touch.

The combat could be a little bit easier. Love the ascii :)

Very cool. The fighting was very difficult for me though. I could not get past the first enemy ;) But I had fun. And I really like ASCII art!

Ok, this is really polished.. only thing that bothered me is that combat sometimes take forever.. Good job overall :)

Simple game, but well done! I included it in part 20 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/LetpuBbjABA
