This is fun! Nothing like dismantling some undead.
I loved the pixel art and animation!! it felt smooth. I lost 4 lives very quickly, but I was trying to see what the damage looked like, so that was on me.
Thanks, I really like this guys assets, awesome looking and free! FoozleCC - itch.io
Managed to play for quite some time.
I noticed a bug: if you pick up the special move gem while shooting, the special move won't trigger.
Really fun game, the skeletons dying animation is really cool.
thanks for checking out the game! I was able to recreate the bug you mentioned and think I know what’s going on. I’m gonna try to fix and reload before the end of the game jam. Thanks again!
Got 7,600. Special Move sfx is a bit loud and it's not always clear in which direction fireball will go, like you need to be walking in a direction towards enemy to shoot in that direction
Thanks for playing!
Yeah, making some changes to how the player moves to address some of this. I'm also going to adjust the volume of the Ultimate among a couple of other changes/improvements.
Just an FYI I've uploaded a 1.1 build the fixes the problem you mentioned + more features! Check out the devlog for details.
