Reviews for "Frozen Helm"
Extar responds:
Haha, I have to admit I've never played it, so I'll take your word for it. :)
I like this game a lot. However, jumping seems slippery
Extar responds:
Haha that must be the ice theme coming through. Glad you enjoyed it. :)
Metroidvana is not the right word to describe this game but that doesn't mean it's bad by any means....I highly enjoyed it although the jumping does feel a bit slippery

It's good but I wish the controls for the freeze and ice spear spell were reversed, it feels counter-intuitive that the former is an instant tap while the latter require charging, especially as its your primary weapon
Extar responds:
Glad you enjoyed it. The ice spear originally was a tap move and the freeze needed holding but this made the freeze really awkward to use which made it less useful as a defensive/panic button sort of move. The typical combo of running up to an enemy, freezing them and then using the ice spear was made a lot more fiddly.
I also liked the idea of the helm sort of focusing your powers, so without the helm you can only perform a wild blast of magic but then wearing the helm lets you focus into a more powerful attack.
I wouldn’t call this a Metroidvania, it’s more a platformer than anything. None the less it’s a good game.

Glad you enjoyed the game!
