Played the demo through just without issue. The items I noted while playing were:
- A paused menu with an exit option would be great (I could only close the game early once started with Alt+F4)
- It would be good to have a windowed mode rather than only be able to run the game in full screen mode
- Maybe show a popup for the controls at the beginning in case the player hasn't read the how to play screen and also a wall jumping tip when that is first required
The feedback I would give, is like crouching, when a button is pressed, like C or Left CTRL, the player crouches. Also you could add running, stamina, so the player couldn't run all the time.
I like the trail that you added to the player, but when the player is facing to the left, the trail is infront of him. Try changeing the order layer on them.
And I think that's all of my feedback.
I hope you and this game gets a bright future! Have a nice day/night!
Thanks i think i fixed that order issue post jam but i cant post an update since iam reworking the game from the ground up. Also those are some good ideas thanks :)
What a nice and fun platformer, shooting aliens is so much fun and the VFX for when you blow up a UFO is so satisfying, would have liked a little more animation on the enemies but given the time frame of the development is understandable, overall great job, hope to see more like this.
My only advice would be to add some graphics to show the new mechanics. Show a spring and a up arrow near the first spring for example so players know it's an item that will make you jump up. Stuff like that makes it easier to understand what to do without complicated tutorials. :)
Loved it! Was a nice little pixelated alien shooter game, and always love a good platformer. The jumping from wall to wall was a bit difficult but I got it goin =D Yours is the first game in the video! Left a follow and look forward to more!!
Brilliant little game! I got stuck on the 3rd level and couldn't find the way out. The music was great! Just needs to loop it on the 3rd level as it stops after first play. The pixel style of the textures work well and gives it a retro feeling! Only thing I would change would be the shooting , make it so the shooting is a key press instead of mouse as it was hard to shoot after jumping. However overall the game is good simple and works well and easy to play! Enjoyed it ! look forward to playing more games you create!
At the part you use a spring and kill the enemies on 3 platforms, 2 aliens on bottom platforms and a few spacemen on top platform. I couldn't get past that part. Unless I missed an enemy to kill possibly.
just use the bounce pad to go up to the top row with them 3 on and shoot them then run along and do the wall jumping like from the moon and you are up. I hope that helps

Nice game!
Thankyou i am currently working on the full release and have addressed some of them issues thanks for having a look.
I played through the game! Have a look :)
Thankyou :)
The wall jumping is was a bug in the code so i tried my best to turn it into a feature :)
Great Game there buddy! :)
Pretty well planned out.

P.S. You need to add a pause menu :) It would be great if you would add it.

Thanks in the 3rd level where about did you get stuck?

I did try that but the jump wasn't very powerful at that part and couldn't wall jump, strange lol
That's strange I will update tomorrow with a fix
