Crystal Castle

Super solid gameplay, most polished project I've seen in the submissions. Would love to play more content, as it was fun to play with all three of the characters.
Would be interesting to see where it could go! nice work!!!!

Fun little game. My favourite aspect was the music, and everything else was good, despite the easy difficulty and how short the game is~

Very fun game, i like this retro style, not original but it works very well ! Good job !

Good job on that one, the art is amazing. Overall one of the best games Ive played this Ludum Dare.

Although this game is short, but its quality is just great. Good job!

Just saw this on a stream. Is there any chance of maybe making a macOS or Linux build?

Great entry Kyla, was fun, and graphics were top notch. Grats

@generalbeans Thank you for the kind words and potentially it could be a thing if peoples are interested in something more full featured without being restricted to a theme of "Your life is currency" as I kept forgetting about it and wanting to branch out with my own ideas but I tried to keep the theme there... whatever little there is in it ~ OvO

@lexyvil All the music was done by @Whirlguy, you can find his whole library on newgrounds and you can even use if for your own projects, awesome overall guy. Believe it or now, the game in testing was actually easier but I didn't want to frustrate people so I kind of went in between... which was still too easy xD but thank you for the kind words ~ ^-^

@robowarrior1982 To me a top down was something new so it was somewhat of a challenge to me, I do admit though that I could of tried a little harder to impliment the theme more ~ oVo

@rhewid Thank you so much for the super kind words ~

This was so fun! The graphics and music were great, and I enjoyed the pacing. It was also easy to figure out the controls.

@nayaki-anandan I'm glad you had fun and it was awesome to watch you play this on stream

The game is really great from a polish standpoint, very few quality of life features are missing. Its close to the theme but a little off. It wasn't too long or difficult either. With a little more time and this amount of polish you could make a really fun game!

Not a very unique idea but was a pretty straightforward implementation of the theme. The screenshake was way too much in my opinion. Especially at the boss fight in the beginning it was overkill. Over than that, fine submission.

@flamboozle Thank you for taking the time out to play it and all the recomendations are welcome, best way for me to improvee

The art and audio makes the game look really polished. The only thing that it seems to lack for it to be a full game that I might find on Steam is that it was kind of short. Good job!

This was really fun! Just simple, no nonsense, functional jam game. The art style was good, and the music was banging, but I felt it could have been louder or brighter. I wish there was a category for "The game worked all the way through so it gets 5 stars here".

Very good game i was sad it fished so early but in a jam making more levels is not always wise and i think it served you well that you polished the game. Id also liked the art and sound,

Very good game, really short but i know it was just a matter of time ! Graphics are really nice, the theme is well respected ! Nice job ! GG

The art and audio makes the game unique. Good job bro :).

The visuals and sound are super cool!

Really superb game, the graphics, animations, sounds and the polish, just awesome. Only trouble I had was with the dying enemies still damaging you when you walk into them, but other than that I didn't encouter any problems :)

Really cool! Way too short for my taste, I could play this for another pair of levels :) The art was nice and the shooting felt very satisfying. Great job! The sound effects were fitting and it shows that you put all your effort in. Could use some more mechanics and some polish around the edges, but aside from that, a very nice experience!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah man... It's tooooo short.
Conceptually nothing new, but it's very fun nonetheless.

Graphics are awesome. :) Very well done. Especially coins' direction being a bit randomized.

Just has a really great feeling.

Amazing graphics and music! I love that there is a choice between three heroes and that there are different types of enemies and little details like crystals. It's nicely polished. It was short but it was entertaining. :thumbsup: I don't think the theme was quite on spot though, because it's money which is a currency in it self but it doesn't ruin the experience for me. The theme this year was kinda tough and didn't leave much space for creativity. Good job for your first LD entry - hope to see some more from you in the next ones. And keep @Whirlguy on there too, he's got a talent. :slight_smile:

Everything worked great!! I could see this idea being stretched into a full game. Nice job. I mean it was a full game, but a longer game.... You know what I mean right?

This was really fun!
A well rounded little game with the right graphics and sound.
A chame it's so short :-),but on the other hand, itgives me more time to play other games.....
