This game is freakin awesome! I think my only criticism is it would be kinda nice to maybe have some extra buttons to select the items (1-4 maybe?) and have Z be a dedicated jump button, as it is right now it's a tad hard to control. Also I was confused at first because I thought you would have to COLLECT items, but I figured it out easily enough I guess. Really cool!
(Also idk what engine you made this in, but an update to use controllers would make this just about perfect)
Wow, thank you very much for your kind words (and feedback).
Alas, this game was built using the PICO-8 virtual console (game engine basically), which unfortunately only has standard gamepad keys (so buttons 1-4 would be a challenge. Good idea tho.
As for controller support - it should be there. If not, at the risk of "rocking the boat", this game is hosted elsewhere (*cough* Itch *cough*), where the controller support may work?
Thanks again
This was fun! Good job! :)
very nice
I'm always impressed by pico8 games, and this one was particularly involved for being made with such a simple engine! I had fun, but I wish it was longer!
Really liked this! My only issue is that the controls felt a little floaty (could be that it plays a lot better on a controller, I'm playing using a keyboard) which made it difficult to nail some of the more difficult jumps (Nakatomi Plaza is a good example of where I struggled most with the controls). Otherwise, I enjoyed the game a lot.
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.
Yeah, it's tricky to get the balance right with the jump "feel".
Also, I think I pushed the engine a bit on that level, so may be suffering from the odd frame-drops, which could be affecting the feel of it?
Either way, valuable feedback - thank you :)
