Reviews for Vizzy & The Lost Cat

[Bleak-Creep]

Been meaning to play this proper for a bit now. I messed around a bit at the end of the jam and remember thinking the movement and controls were nice and tight, and that holds true. The branching paths in the level design makes it fun to explore too, searching for cameos and extra cash along the way.

If I have any complaints, it's that I think the health/score could either be a bit smaller, or moved to the bottom of the screen, since the action always moves upward, and it can get in the way of seeing what you've got coming up next.

I also think it could be nice if you were to implement holding the shoot button to rapid fire too (maybe it's a bit slower?) just as an accessibility option for some players.

Cool game though! And trans rights! <3

Removing a star for being incomplete/not fully working.

The pixelisation algorithm used in this game is very inelegant and the outlines of sprites will disappear and reappear repeatedly. Best visible on the health which look to be tin cans? Cards?

The touch controls only work sometimes. They work fine on the title screen, I clicked on my mouse cursor which brought me into the game, but then when I got the prompt to press z or tap again it didn't work. I also wonder how it can work with a mobile screen when the touch controls are missing ingame too. This is exactly like GloryTheRainWing said, the game is rushed.

Otherwise I think it's somewhat good.

I tried my best to make mobile players have a good time but I guess not all of them are pleased still :/

"Best visible on the health"
Yes that is to be expected, it's a viewport sprite effect thingy cause It's scaled down a bit and rotates. It looks cool, at least for me

"press z or tap again it didn't work"
Hm I wonder why. For me it worked on mobile and my PC (it has touchscreen). I got Peti to do some Beta testing and not once they mentioned the cutscene not working.. I'm thinking your device is really old as fuck or probably IOS

"This is exactly like GloryTheRainWing said, the game is rushed."
I spent quite some time on this CyberRobotnix. I tried to Optimize it a lot with some help from Peti like fixing the joystick and level improvements. But if you and Glory Hole over there think it's rushed, then so be it

Sorry that you encountered issues. If you ever want to play and talk snap about this game again, I recommend playing it on a good PC

The movement is just too chaotic and all over the place...
