AUUUUUGH I CANT BEAT PERFECT CIRCLE MAN

[Peter: Aner]

I like the creepy vibe of the whole game, it'd be interesting to see a full game of Peter navigating a wasteland, encountering monstrous husks of long-dead newgrounds characters.

[DEAD PETALS]

Great game, but deader petals has pretty much no room to move in later stages.

bandaloo responds:

thanks for playing! that is a fair criticism. it's hard to strike the right balance with procedural generation stuff.

if i were to redo the bullet pattern generation, i would have each enemy have a certain amount of "skill" points it could slot into various stats, such as bullet spread, fire rate, bullet size, bullet speed, etc.. right now as the difficulty increases, it just widens the range of possible values. so occasionally, you'll just have some tiny blue duck or whatever that lucked out on all its stats way early in the game. i kind of like the jankiness because you don't know what to expect, and it forces you to spend some resources (hyper) to push past rough spots, but if i take this idea further i'll have the difficulty curve be a little smoother.

you *can* get thru with well-timed bullet cancels and your hitbox is actually super small, but it does get crazier than i anticipated. i did get a decent winstreak on deader petals the other day, though. and i'll have a custom game menu added soon!

[The Wizard Ran: Chapter 3]

I find it hard to navigate with the lack of depth, the style change wouldve been nice if there was a better sense of location, i get the whole point is the forest being cursed and hard to navigate, but I feel like I'm running aimlessly due to not being able to see far and lack of memorable landmarks.

Hint: look to the right :3

[PICO ZERO]

Music is really good, but the horror feels kind of cheap from what I've played, and the gameplay can be frustrating, as I never made it past Pico's house, as there's no sort of guidance as to how many of those things you need to collect, nor any guidance of where they are. I'm not very good with mazes, so this could be just a personal problem, but with the sense of urgency and constantly moving it's hard to get a sense of location other than familiarity, nor remember where every piece you need to get is. Also, the visuals are kind of lack luster, and there's no real buildup to the horror aspect other than at Pica's house. The concept of the game is really good though, and I think if there was better continuity and sense of direction, i'd give it 5 stars.

[Kolo Terorita]

When I beat mug only mode it didnt give me the medal

[Comatoast: Unjammed]

Great game, but i noticed a bug where naan gets stuck in platforms, or they end up stuck and cant flip again even when on the ground sometimes, it's ruined a few runs.
