hey this was a very good game, but i encountered some bugs. the unequip button just deletes the item i tried to unequip and if i knocked the enemy onto the benches they would teleport onto the ceiling.
Edit: after having to redownload and actually beat it this time heres what i think.
the standard enemies are ok, they can be killed easily and they can kill you if there is more than one. the boss is ok for the most part, his dash has almost no visual cue other than standing still for a second which i mistook for jank a lot of times and he can do it if you are even a little bit too far, his other moves could be improved like if he swings for a second time after winding up, he could wind up a little again instead of just holding his arms up which i also mistook for jank the first few times, but that was mostly on me.
it took me a little over 45 minutes and other than a couple of bugs was very enjoyable. 9/10
Just finished it. Controls could use little bit of work and id love to be able, to remap them. Other than that, i like the art style, the music, atmosphere and even combat. So yeah, great job, cant wait, to see more of it! :)
This game has so much potential and I see a good future for it. I can just imagine online co-op in expansive levels. I enjoyed playing through this demo. I only had an issue with the clunky combat mechanics, but it stands well beside the PS1 style graphics. I would love to see character creation, multiplayer, refined combat, a leveling system and many more weapons and armor.
Here's a wonderful game that I can't wait to stream. I haven't even played this yet, but it's truly a gem. Thanks to Iron Pineapple for putting this on my radar :)
Enjoy this game's clever aesthetic. If you need a writer/editor, I'm happy to offer my services for free. I've written and edited for a few small games, magazines, and books. I've always wanted to help a project like this!
I played this game after I watched a video from Iron Pineapple. I really enjoyed this game! I would definitely be interested in playing more of things like this.
The running looks a bit awkward, the healing potion SFX is reminiscent of a Newgrounds flash game, which isnt good. The lighting on the second level looks a bit too bright.
But overall, the mood, the gameplay, and the overall feel is great. Will definitely buy the full version if it ever comes out.
a very very promising start, i really want to see where it goes. amazing work on the first levels and boss, i also like the fighting mechanics. and the soundtrack is immersive too. love the ps1 aesthetic, cant wait to see more!
This is a masterpiece on so many different levels!! The visuals and audio are beautiful, the controls work perfectly with the game (and the fact they can be a little clunky actually works with the theme), and the difficulty is as brutal as I was hoping for!
Yeah, that sounds about right. Sounds like the graphics card is the bottleneck in this case. I'm sorry that you can't play the game properly but there isn't much that we can do to optimize the game further.
This is so much fun! I see now why people say Dark Souls is so hard. I got up to the 3rd floor and got pummeled! For a 30 minute game, it's a lot of fun. Are you planning to make a full release?
Also, mouse and controller sensitivity are too high, maybe make it adjustable?
I can compare it to demon souls. Looks and plays great. There is an issue about camera. The camera shouldn't block by small elements like lamps on the wall. Great job!
Amazing game! If you can acept a suggestion, please consider to make a sensivity regulator, on mouse the camera is too fast, and Please, make a Linux version!!!! If you do, i can help you into test if you want!!!
Very Nice! I played on the keyboard and it wasn't as fluent as playing it on gamepad. The movement and action is really good and the scenery had my attention as well but the texture on the boss didn't show up so i was fighting an invisible character. Great game
Keyboard controls were a lil clunky (can see why you'd recommend controller), but this was an awesome demo! I don't know if you guys are planning a longer version, but I'd love to see one!
I was told that there was 20 min of game play, i played over 40 min. Time flew by as i played and i enjoyed the game more than i thought i would have. Cant wait for the full version!
I made a video of me playing this game, will certainly be playing more when more content is added.
Awesome vertical slice guys! Love the aesthetic, could totally see myself buying and playing a full game version of this for sure! Found two issues; rolling frequently just wouldn't work, specifically in the boss fight, and when I died in the boss and ran back in to try again the boss' mesh didn't appear and he couldn't hurt me even though I could hear him attacking and kill him myself.
Hello! The bug with the boss disappearing should be fixed in the v1.1 build. And to roll, you need stamina, and if your stamina is depleted you can't roll. Hope this helps!

10/10 please make it a whole game, I would totally buy it.
Pineapple brought me here, and I'm glad. This game has a lot of potential. i expect more from the devs.
10/10 would buy a full longer vesion of this game

This looks really really good, hope to see more from it.
I hope you're going to make a full game out of this. If any 3D modelling/texturing is needed I'd be happy to help.

My god, this game it's a masterpiece, seriously i f love it. Keep going man!
Btw: The boss killed me when he had 1HP left XD
PLEASE FUCKING MAKE THIS GAME LONGER,I LOVE IT
Fantastic.

The sensitivity is too high but I like the game and it's dark aesthetics tho.
Can you fix something about the boss?? its not fair that he attacks anytime i try to attack him ;-;
LOL, D.R.U.N.K
I like it, verry Dark Souls Style and simple controls
This is a masterpiece on so many different levels!! The visuals and audio are beautiful, the controls work perfectly with the game (and the fact they can be a little clunky actually works with the theme), and the difficulty is as brutal as I was hoping for!
(This is the first game on the video)
Damn dude, it was perfect. So sad, that it's so short. I want to play it forever! Good job!
Amazing game! I love that style! Unfortunately my laptop is too lowspec for it :(
Maybe you can optimize it? Pretty please!
Are you unable to run the game or are you having low fps?
What is your system information? Can you provide info like how much RAM do you have or what kind of graphics card you're using?
If you're not sure, on windows press Windows button + R and type "dxdiag" and hit enter. This will show the information.
If you have an integrated graphics like Intel hd graphics or something, then there is not much that any optimization will help with.
Thanks.
I've got low fps. Here's system information: Intel Core i3-6006U CPU @ 2.00GHz (4 CPUs) ~ 2.0GHz, DirectX 12. I've got 4096 MB RAM
Oh wait, I've got Intel hd graphics
Yeah, that sounds about right. Sounds like the graphics card is the bottleneck in this case. I'm sorry that you can't play the game properly but there isn't much that we can do to optimize the game further.
Se una volta completato esce un porting per psx saro la perona più felice della terra

Best game I've played in a long while
I really look forward to more
