hmm, sounds pretty bad, sounds like you should go post in the games forum instead, where much better posters reside who will be sympathetic to your manbaby sensibilities

it's so much better now with the new art (which i still need to get out to desura and poo poo)

LP0 ON FIRE posted:

Yodzilla that is a quality game you made there for the iOS App Store [Bungle!]

it's extremely simple but the effort shows with the art and gameplay features

edit: here's the link just in case anyone is curious https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bungle!/id888310447?mt=8

yeah my significant other in game dev does real nice arts. that style worked out super well for us but here's what the original Olly Overload looked like





which was lol for the game jam but not really mass market friendly

yeah i think if you've already played the others than demon's is going to be a bit easier. might be some bosses and areas later that give you trouble though but nothing early on

probably because you've already played those two games, I suspect (the skillset is pretty similar between the games)

also, I'm curious about how well you'll do in the storm world (I forget the name, the one with the manta rays)

demons is also more exploitable, mostly because you can stockpile heals and the magic system is totally different
