download links seem to take a while to load, to anyone struggling to find them like I did, leave the tab open for a little while (seemed to work for me).

@John Timora your link leads to a 404 error and it says you have not posted any games on your profile. Did you make it public on itch?

Nice concept with good atmosphere, the first skeleton really scared me xD
The game mechanics need a bit more work though, it was a bit hard to aim!
I also recommend describing the controls in your ldjam post, even though I did figure them out :)

@warzoku the bullets shoot forward I haven't figured out how to make them go in different directions.

The mars/alien scene is really nice. The grappling and shooting are really difficult tho! I enjoyed the music too.

Yes the link is ow working!! The motion gets a little crazy so it gets hard to control but fun

@theamazingb it's like that for slower computers somehow. I think it has to do with rendering everything at the same time.

Got the coins! What do you mean next level? No more torture!

People are probably having trouble with the bullets because the gun isn't aligned towards the reticle. And they fly so much slower than you can move, so it all ends up looking wonky.

The mouse wasn't visible for buttons after getting all coins. Had to search for it via button hover feedback.

@YinYin How do you align the bullets with the reticle that would be nice to know and the mouse doesn't work for the buttons. You have to use the arrow keys or wasd to move to highlight the buttons.

I liked flying around with the grappling hook. The skeletons got really loud after a while though. I'd suggest making it so that there is a sound controller or something that plays the sound instead of each skeleton so that they don't overlap so much.

The bullets appeared fine, the gun just doesn't point in the same direction. It points a bit left. All you gotta do is turn it.

And the mouse does work, you just can't see it because you hid it for the FPS part and didn't reveal it again afterwards.

The mood is great. I think it could benefit from a bit of background parallax. The grappling hook is so much fun; using it to control your momentum feels nice. I had a real moment of awe when I jumped for the first time and went flying off into space and had to hook back to one of the platforms.

it started well... then quickly went weird.. the gun sometimes fires, sometimes doesn't and for some reason the grappling hook wouldn't work.. just froze me in place then laughing skeletons killed me... also the end screen doesn't work so i had to force quit the game lol. needs a little more polish :) but i quite liked its strange atmosphere :)


check out our game too if you get chance :) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/harvest-doom

The planet scene and the ambience are really good. Moreover with the music and the water reflections. Also the skeleton model is good. Nevertheless, I had some troubles when I tried to shoot, since the bullets weren't unaligned with the weapon.

I enjoyed flying!!

Damn the skeleton scared me! It started well but the game started glitching a little bit for me until it completely froze like @brendan-toy said.

I'd love for you to checkout my submission as well! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/keyboard-warrior

I tried out the latest version and I will say it seems pretty bug free. The gunplay wasn't half bad, the skeletons were just fun to pop since you could fire pretty nonchalantly and they died quickly. The grappling hook probably could've used a speed upgrade in order to keep up the fast pace this game deserves. It has a pretty large surface to cover so it'd be nice to zip around at a good speed. Nice job cleaning up the game post LD!
