There's a pretty good atmosphere here and a solid idea, but the controls really drag this down.

Using the arrow keys to attack is pretty confusing.

EDIT: Using Z,X and C to attack, and the arrow keys to move, would be better for me,though I'd also recommend adding the ability to rebind keys.

Good point, which keys do you think would be best as another control option?

edit: I won't be able to have remappable controls in the program I'm using, but I can definitely include an alternate opion for Z, X, and C + arrow controls.

A basic enough, but entertaining little timewaster.

A solid all-around throwbacj to the NES/Famicom era.

My only real complaint is that the axe's short range and arc make it a bit annoying to use.

Good luck in the jam.

Pretty basic, but pretty cute

Simple to understand, but cleverly built. I'm genuinely impressed by this.

The only flaw I ran into was a collision bug caused by switching tangibility inside a black/white object, but that did not detract from my enjoyment one bit.

ABrightSide responds:

Yeah, that happened to me when I was testing out the game's gimmick. I figured, a part of the challenge could be trying not to get stuck inside platforms.

Then again, it does look unnatural to have the idle animation still play while stuck. Perhaps I could change the animation or make it so that the platform ejects you if you get stuck in it.

This genuinely impressed me.

Hope you do well in the jam!

FodderLabs responds:

Glad you liked the game!

And thank you very much, I hope other players enjoy the game as well! :D

Found the controls pretty awkward, and was disappointed in the lack of a 1-player mode, but there's clearly a solid idea here.

The idea's pretty basic, but it was done well enough to be entertaining.

This could absolutely need a remaster.

Visuals are pretty basic, music is naught but some basic loops, and the ball is flat-out uncontrollable.

Bigger, badder, and arguably harder than the first.

The autosave is a nice touch, as is the tutorial.

Newgrounds is damn good.
