Really fun

Now this was a very nice graphics game the art and graphics are rich in detail the platformer style was very well made not easy by any means a fun game indeed, I thought it was presented well and I thought there was some nice elements throughout this whole game I have found it to be entertaining there was some very interesting happenings going on lots of fun there was good points on this one, great platformer game here

~X~

Is normal game but... It is a game that is good, has a good atmosphere and is very nice.
But on the subject of gameplay, the attacks feel very slow compared to how fast an enemy hits me.
I played it on difficulty level and the enemies were giving me a lot because of the attack animation which is tedious.
I don't want to imagine it on hard level.
But good job, it's hard to make a game and program it!

Hi, thank you for playing and for the feedback!

These holiday specials are made as a short (10 minutes) action packed experience. So there isn't too much time to git gud. But as with any game, you will get better with some practice.

The full game will start off much slower and build up, so you'll have more time to practice while playing through the story.

There are many tactics you can perform that will make it a breeze to get through these levels.
Give this guide a quick read:
https://headbangames.com/becloudead/

In general, work on your combos, use charged and air attacks, choose the right weapon for the enemy in front of you and make a habit of using rolling to duck attacks.

Feel free to DM me if you have any other questions.

The bats are so f'ing annoying to fight it lowered my enjoyment of the game. Can't climb down ladders after you have climbed up them forcing you to take fall damage to get down. Not having max health lowers your jump so it makes the parkour even more difficult.

HeadbanGames responds:

Hi, thanks for the feedback.

Honestly this version is somewhat outdated, a lot was changed since I uploaded it.
I just pushed the latest version for all 3 holiday specials.

In the updated version, it's easier to kill the bats, the crowbar has more range, there is an additional stronger hammer weapon, charged attacks and more.

The limited movement when energy is lower than 10 was also removed.

About the ladders, I think i get what you mean, to drop back down to a ladder hold DOWN and press JUMP.

Well got to the boss on this all I got really do is figure out the patern.
THe boss has a ton health wish I had a better weapoon for him.
Almost feel he has a tad too much in normal mode.
I got close to half but wanted to try this real quick after you mentioned it.
Combat could be a little smoother the bar for gettign combo takes some adjusting too.

HeadbanGames responds:

Thanks for the feedback!
We're still polishing as we go, there will be more weapons in the future.

What weapon did you use?
You can press TAB to see the weapons info.
To sum it up, the knife is stronger than the crowbar, the 3rd combo hit is stronger than hits 1+2, and the 4th hit is the strongest.

This is very obnoxious to play, sorry, couldn't beat the cookie boss, took too long and my health bar was only going down by not being able to kill it fast enough, and I ended up needing to go to the shitter...
