I'm not downloading anything until you share a couple screenshots or gameplay.

>>69282Somehow it didn't occur to me people might not want to download an .exe file from the internet, so I made it an itch.io page for it.

Some one download it on a VM or some throw away laptop and report back on it. I ain't clicking or running that too lazy.

Not bad.
The walk cycle was actually well done and everything mechanically works fine.
Only minor improvement I have to offer at the moment is that it would probably be a good idea to have the controls/inputs within the game.
Like, being real with you, I didn't read your full post so just figured it out using prior game knowledge and found the arrow keys worked fine.
As far as the difficulty. It was fine. It's more about exploration to find the solution then extreme precision which I appreciate personally, and the visual design language was clear enough to hint at what to do where. Like I didn't need to be told that I could wall jump. The level design hinted that I could wall jump so I tried it and it worked.
The "pain" level however is exactly the kind of thing I get bored of. It's linear and just about trial and error and extreme precision which I personally don't find fun.
Some people are into that, I am not, so once I got the gimmick I just stopped playing there.

>>69280>It's mostly code spaghettied together from tutorials and reading the engine's documentationThat's 99.9999999999999999$ of all games. It's not bad for a game about jumping for eyes. Personally I'd rather jump for big princess boobs, like in Jump King.
This is how far I got before I realized practicing my instrument would be more rewarding. I'm learning the guitar. I want to be a rock star who uses his influence to spread hate towards people who I don't like. Thanks for reading.

>>69285You're right about the controls. Thanks for playing! Yup, sorry about the pain level, it was a debugging room to test the precision of the controls but since this is only a prototype and a learning experience, I decided to leave it. It's doable but ridiculously fucking hard. I only managed to beat it twice and I designed the thing. Next game will be better.
>>69289Thanks for playing! Good luck with the guitar, I hope you become the rock star super villain you want to be!

>>69280Cool game anon
I stopped at exactly the same spot as
>>69289, after 500 seconds.
I figure you probably need to slide down on the walls and jump right as you're about to hit the spike below, but it was going too fast for me.
I really enjoyed the hidden eye on level 1, I didn't expect that.

>>69377>>69398Thank you. I'm currently doing a more serious attempt at game developing. There are likely many bugs. I will continue to work hard on it.

Nevermind, it's that thing that only works on PC. Gave up on my 17 year old PC last year.

>>69417I'm impressed. There's a safe collision zone under the eyes of the head so you can walk on them when it's upside down or sideways. That's where it's probably hanging from. I just don't know how you managed to bypass the hazardous collision area surrounding it. Even hitting it at high velocity you would touch the kill zone first. In fact I cannot reproduce this bug at all. I'll try to fix this, thanks for playing. Also the color palette looks completely off in your picture, perhaps it's vlc doing it.

>>69420Lucky you. Long ago I unlocked the perk that allows me to find and reproduce glitches in the most unseen corners of gaming.
Wizards can hold on to the no-no zone by crouch-sliding under it, then pressing up while still holding the crouch key.

>>69423Very clever. I have reduced the safe area to be out of hanging reach and the bug is now resolved. Thank you for your help!
