Eva Ness goes to Hell by GeeItSomeLaldy

[raw]
made by GeeItSomeLaldy for LD34 (COMPO)
Eva Ness descends into the bowels of hell as an Angel of Vengeance, in order to destroy a group of demons and save her own soul.

I went for both of the themes "Growing" and "Two button controls" because I think I hate myself :P

Controlled entirely with the mouse you use Mouse 1 to hop or fly (when you've grown wings - haha! see what I did there?) and Mouse 2 to fire your Heavenly Automatic Pistol.

Lets get this straight right here: The control system is AWFUL. I am very tired. I made a platforming game where you have near zero precision control. All I can say is I did my best. Enjoy. Or not.

Fun game. The control system was a little odd like you said. But it was also different so that maybe made it better.

Good entry, good use of the controls, jumping was hard to get used to.

Nice, I finished it, nice ending!

Do not assume everyone has a mouse. I found it very difficult to play on an OS X laptop. I do not have two mouse buttons. You should provide alternate key buttons, so I can use trackpad with those keys.

I found the aiming to be off. Like if I had the mouse straight up and jumped, it jumped left.

Why am I shooting at giant flesh-eating ding-dongs? Did I wake up in Saints Row again?

it seems like mouse aim is off a little bit, am I correct?

Took a while to get the hang of the controls but it was alright after that. Audio is pretty good and I like art ;)
Boss fight and cutscene at the end were cool too. Good job!

Definitely didn't expect this game to grab me the way it did. Once you figure out the movement, this game gets super fun. Jumping on one of those worm's things backs and blowing it's head off is one of the most satisfying experiences I've had so far in LD34 lol. Great work!

Super epic! Nice level design, the boss fight is amazing -maybe too hard-. Great job!

There are so many things wrong with this game, but I think thats why I love it.

Interesting game... The controls are very hard and the graphics are a bit on the rough side, but it's a game alright. I liked the atmosphere :).

Nice game. The controls are a bit hard to master. Almost got stuck at the two platforms

A wonderful, yet terribly disturbing mood. Great game!

Hi, i really liked this game and actually liked the controls and overall would be nice to see this taken on further as a bigger game :)

Well Done!!

This was fun. The controls were a bit hard to get the hang of, but jump-floating insane distances to blow the head off of a giant hellworm while dressed like Wendy from Peter Pan made me feel like kind of a bad ass.

Very fun once I figured out it doesn't work on a trackpad. but I got to what I think was just about the end of it when it restarted all of a sudden. I'll have to come back to it later to finish for sure.

Controls are kinda wonky, but you said this game was bad. REAL bad. Like, in your post or whatever. And I actually kinda liked it. Good work.

Hey, don't be so harsh with yourself. It's a great game for a Compo. And it would be also for a Jam. I'd seen a lot of worse games. It lacks a bit in graphics and in sounds, and the final boss is maybe too easier. But otherwise that's a really solid entry.

4/5

the game is RAD. fav part: the big veiny grey dicks. original music? really brought it together.

I felt the bullets were a little off target in terms of the mouse pointer, this made it annoying to shoot while jumping. Nice audio and art, overall a solid entry.

Really fun game! I like the craziness to the character's hair. Controls were actually great for having only two buttons in a platformer. The other platformers with two buttons I've played felt much more restricted during movement in comparison, so excellent work!

Interesting game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/l1a-s63Ve1s

Interesting game especially with the control mechanic idea, although it was pretty difficult being precise as you mentioned.
