Elemental Monster by Zampi

made by Zampi for LD33 (JAM)

The protagonist of the game — it's a bundle of pure energy. The feeling of loneliness caused him to go to the human world. But he waited for a cold greeting, the destructive force of his presence was burned down villages. People were up in arms against an unknown power and willing to do anything to win.

Use WASD keys for change aspect of yourself and protect from enemies attacks.

Nice!
But internet explorer stuck at blackscreen,
just see the yellow elemental menu ring,
nothing can click, nothing can press,
forever------so we just back here...

Comments just becomes
tester review.

Your game has some graphical issues.... the web version loaded and then glitched out. http://imgur.com/Pc4yFJ0

Web worked fine here(didn't try the embedded version). Nice polished graphics, took me a few goes to figure out what I was doing but good job :)

Cool idea, incredible realization but guys... I've restarded 10 times the games, read the description, can't figure the RULES :D I don't understand what elements is strong against what. Please help me with a short tuto. Or at least, don't make people shooting at me, killing me 2 seconds after I spawned, so might I have the time to figure out what the hell is going on ^^

Seems to work nicely, and graphics looks amazing. The main problem is that it's unclear what the controls are actually doing/which mode is best for each situation.

I loved the graphics :D
Great entry

Controls would have been easier if the UI is not rotating.
The visuals are pleasing but sometimes glitching, chunks disappearing from the left.
Good job otherwise! :)

Was confusing to start, but once I got what was going on it was fun and I could see this game becoming addictive. Perhaps the spinning dial did not help initial confusion :p

the controls are a bit hard to get a long such as the mechanic. But i liked it a lot.
The mood and the colors looks amazing!

Graphics are goods but the game is difficult and there are lot's of glitches.

... however the music is extra and really contribute to the cool ambiance.

Good visuals, but I find the spinning mechanic quite counter intuitive. When I press up, I expect to get the element I see above, same for right and left and so forth. It would have been easier if the spinning was limited to A and D, also with a pointer or highlight to indicate what element you currently are (and something to indicate enemy element), because it is very hard to get familiar with a whole game in 5 seconds, in which i had to die 4-5 times before I understood the mechanic. Sorry if I sound hard on you guys, hope you can do something positive with it, keep it up!

I think the way the controls work is counter intuitive, and it really made them game frustrating to play for me. Element selector dial makes me think you can push A or D to rotate right or left but that is not the case. You should make the dial stay stationary and have a visible indicator move over the dial to show which element you have selected. -Otis

Excellent graphics and audio, overall presentation was fantastic! Would like it to be a bit more difficult :D

Fantastic entry, love the graphics and the music.
Good job!

Great art style! For some reason I felt a bit of a motion sickness when my score was around 3.000. But other than that I liked it!

You know the game is going the right way when all characters jump with the music :D Awesome graphics, awesome song!

Very nice visuals, and great art style. Exploding animals are always nice...
Gameplay is solid, but the rotating elemental signs made it really hard to keep track of my lives.

Pretty, but confusing, and ultimately too simplistic for my liking.

Quite a fun idea, although it gets hard to focus as the stage gets faster. I think the game would look a bit nicer if you increased the draw distance a little - the blue fog is a little annoying. Apart from that, enjoyable entry, well done!

The game looks great. Very simple and easy to understand.

But, there is a problem with the HUD. I expected to rotate the "element circle" with the WASD, but not to press the correct button. I get that in the second try. But anyway, the HUD must be changed to support that idea.

Overall, the game passes.

Great graphics! Pretty simple and fun gameplay.
I wish I could see more of what is ahead.

I liked the graphics style a lot, i would love to play in a game with that genre and the same tone, and I'm not talking about minecraft here :P

The idea is nice, and it runs smoothly even even when it goes really fast! i made around 9330 on my second attempt, liked it! :)
