Damn this has so much potential! Really nice graphics and overall the game nails that zelda feeling. The only thing I'm missing is a footstep sound when the hero is using the stairs! :D
Reviews for "Knightin'"
Wolod responds:
Thank you! You're right I've totally forgot about this sound effect *slaps forehead* It'll be added today, sir :)
Very good! I like it so much
I personally feel the player a bit slow but I still like it!
Wolod responds:
Thanks a lot!
I really enjoyed this. QR codes worked just fine for me. I also noticed the hints in the map. I would like to see more. I docked you a half star because a) yeah... the character movement is a little slow and b) the boss wasn't challenging in the least bit. Otherwise 4.5 stars!
What did you use to make this? Any libraries, tech, etc? Love the Zelda-ish dungeon design.
Wolod responds:
Thanks! Glad that you enjoyed Knightin'! I'm a huge fan of early Zelda games myself. Game was made with Construct 2 engine. Graphics were drawn in paint.NET
Very cool! It was fun to play a little game that reminded me a bit of Zelda. It'd be nice to see a sequel of this game with several different bosses, more items, and some other characters. Perhaps even a plot!
On the other hand, if you ever make an extended version of this game then it'd be cool to get a stronger version of each item. A razor sharp sword that could fire projectiles every few seconds, an aegis shield that creates a magical barrier to protect all our sides (but recharges for a moment each time it blocks a hit for us), a sprint ring that lets us dash further, and a wraith amulet that protects us for twice as long.
Wolod responds:
Thanks! Glad that you enjoyed Knightin'!
I was planning to implement upgraded sword and shield, but I didn't have enough time to do it. These features will be definitely included in the extended version.
QR code doesnt even work
you walk WAY too slow (quit after getting the shield) dont give me the sad excuse of "b-but you get a dash ability later" yeah well, its still bad game design if half of the comments imply this is putting people off the game
Wolod responds:
Use alternative hints if QR codes don't work for you. They're not the only way to solve puzzles. Each room is less than 320x180 pixels. You'll be skipping tiles if I increase walking speed much. On the other hand I can speed up the character by 5-10%, but I doubt that anyone will notice much difference.
