Prevent the Corrupted Data from getting through the system and causing system shutdowns! Blast away at the glitches, collecting powerups and trying to get a highscore.
There is some really fun gameplay in here in fighting about territory, winning back some height by using the upgrades efficiently etc. I had a hard time undestanding when i could jump though and since the upgrades are temporary i couldn't really gain any momentum against the corruption and mostly acted like a goalkeeper on the lower floors. Highscore 4685. Please everyone else post your scores! :D I want to know If i was any good.
I enjoyed this: it has a retro arcade game-like feel... not so much the style, but the gameplay which hooked me into playing a few rounds. The minimal style didn't entice me very much at first, but I appreciated it once the enemies started stacking! I found myself wanting to be more agile and have more control sometimes. It would be really satisfying to have a melee. GJ!
There are some good concepts here for sure, however it did not feel very well polished. The jumping in particular was very frustrating - it seems like a lot of the time your ground detection did not trigger and as a result I just couldn't jump even while mashing the up button on my keyboard. What I did like was the gameplay, hard to go wrong with an action shooter side-scroller, and I'll always upvote for fun action games. Kept me trying a few times, although it never got too hard. my high score was 3635 or something around there? I tried to go back and check mid-comment but it looks like the data got wiped so I wasn't able to.
@technonugget I was aware that the embed here doesn't work sometimes, although I thought it was just Firefox it was not working in. I just tried a couple other browsers and it doesn't seem to work at all, so I am just going to remove the embed.
There's definitely potential here, got a little frustrated from jumping as I felt that I had to jump with near-perfect timing to reach a higher platform and some times the jump input wasn't working. Still, a very nice game and congrats on the submission!
final score is 995 and its a solid arcade-feel entry, love it! I wonder if wall jump is inteneed because sometimes its very trick to performa and thus I lost some chances there. Anyway good job!
I think the game have some potentials. It's actually easy since you can just stay on the bottom floors and spam the fire button. I "had" to search for the power ups to have a challenge.
It's a little buggy (can't jump on the lower left platform / was using wallsliding to make some jumps) but with a debug, some music and some 2D lights, it could be a far better game than it is now.
I would love this more if it had some timer / enemy count and more levels to play one. As for now, it is fine, but it'd be nice if you'd continue working on it !

Cool idea though, reminds me of the arcade Mario Bros game a bit.

Keep up the good work 😄
