Pretty neat. I know the answer is probably "no" but, do you plan to keep it free? Also not sure if its a bug or just a WIP but on the title screen, what i presume to be the name of the game is just a big black rectangle to me.
Free: I'm not sure. It'll be a long, long time til I make that call either way. Certainly not forever, but the final game looks to be 10+ hours and I'll probably start charging a marginal amount as "Early Access, get the full game at no extra cost when it releases" at some point when the content exceeds several hours. The demo will always stay free once it hits a point I'm satisfied with.
Black rectangle: Bug, and not one I've heard of or seen. The title text is made up of 23 images anyway so I can't imagine how that'd happen. Could you send me a picture? To Discord at jakefriend #4098 or email at jakefriend.dev@gmail.com, thank you!
Unfortunately i can not play this game with a non-QWERTY keyboard layout: my WASD keys are not in their “usual” position and without arrow keys it is very hard to move, but the thing that does not allow me to play is that i have to press the Shift key to enter numbers and the game does not recognize this as a valid conversation answer. Using the number pad does not work either.
I saw that there is a controls tab in the settings menu that is disabled. Once it is enabled i will try again.
Sorry for the rather negative note; i can not pass the first screen and can not comment on anything else.
Ah, that sounds frustrating, I'm sorry to hear. I'll look into keybinding in a few days when I'm back from visiting family. I had it slated as a post-demo task but I hadn't pictured it outright blocking anyone from playing, so thanks for letting me know and I'll look into that. I'll reach out when a keybind-friendly build is in place!
Thanks for the Linux version! :D I'll update this once I get to play it Edit: Fun game, tha amount of juice is goals. Loved the artstyle! Definitely following
I must say that I love the music. It has that catchy yet somehow cartoonish tune. At first, it might look like it isn't a serious project because of the appsrently fast drawn art, but when u play it, u know it has a lot of stuff "that actually works" and feel connected to a very unique style.
From the transitions, to the bouncing bullets, to the secret areas and dialogue, I must say, this is done by a guy that knows what he is doing. And I'll add that I am envious of your ability.
Keep it up, this looks really cool, and it's pretty funny how the 'subtle' messages are given too. Really creative!
Amazing. So many great design decisions like being able to walk away from conversations at any time, the amazing minimap, and the really interesting and unique enemies. The game has so much personality and it's just so fun to explore in.
