Eyy, it's Blackthorn. Didn't know you were on newgrounds, love your vids!

This game is very visually appealing, and does a great job with telling the story you wanted. The gameplay is pretty good and the sound design is great, though I'm a sucker for jump sound effects to make jumping more pleasing.
Also, does this game has controller support, or is Unity just automatically assigning the left arrow keys to my Xbox-controller? Regardless I would love it if I could jump with my controller as well, as I'm already able to move left and right-

Overall a great fun little game, great job :)

Thanks :) ! I'm really glad you liked this creation and my videos ! I didn't actually add controller support to it, but definitely will do for my next project :) !

Really original and good concept. I like it :).

Thanks! :)

Ae you some sort of genius o_O? Probably one of the best free platformers I have played :D.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Wow thank you! No I'm not a genius at all, not by a long shot! ... but thanks for the kind words! I just enjoy making games and I'm really glad people enjoy some of them :)

I would recommend that you use the w a s d insteam of the arrow keys. In games where you combine the mouse with the keyboard it works better. Also the game is pretty boring and you should have added some health to the player. most people don't like to play games where you die on first touch and have to start again just do to do just the same.
I would add some variation to the enmies as well. except from the shooting enemies they are all pretty much the same enemy but with different sprites. Can't give you more than 1 on this one.

i still need to animate the sprites, but i think thatll take a lot more time, also i didnt even think about wasd, i will add that in.as for the enemys, this is just level one, of many. i guess its my bad to publish an unfinished game, i just wanted some input

Well the game itself was cool and cute and all but there is no challenge. To do anything else than just walking u gotta get 1000 coins which takes ages to get. I know you probably hoped someone would sign in and purchase coins but people usually wont bother with doing that as there is no proof that the game is worth it or not. Well maybe some people might enjoy collecting coins in the same enviroment, but i just find it tiresome and i know alot of other people do too.

Thanks so much for the feedback. The later levels are much better, but the first level definitely is pretty boring. We're going to update it very soon to make the first level more interesting by adding some objects and the like to it! The later levels are much better, but the first one definitely needs some work!

Well at least this one had some sort of gameplay to it i guess

philipv11 responds:

no i have do it shelf

first i thought this game was another "avoid asteroids game. then i read the description and started wondering and i played it for a bit longer. then i found out it was alot more to it. This game combines many different game types into one. The art was cool too. 5 stars :)

SeethingSwarm responds:

Yes I think a lot of people who start playing the game without reading the description think that the whole game is like the first level, and unfortunately I think that happens a lot :/ I'm very glad you did read it and continued playing :) Thanks for the 5 stars and the nice review! Glad you liked the game :)
