Hi Juan! I’ve been following the development of your game and the last time I played I was really impressed but wow the game is even more fun! I love the lightning strikes, the crates and how it points to next one the area when you get close and in general all the juice you’ve added! My family were watching as I played and they are all calling for “their turn” lol!
Haha, brilliant - I’m glad the whole family likes it :) Now I just have to find mooooore time to work on enemy+weapon variety…
I like that it sparkles when you collect your yellow squares, I think it would be nice to have an option where you don’t have to massacre all the penguins. XD
Hi Sarah! I’ve got good news: they’re not being massacred. They’re being gently bumped on the head with an arrow-looking-thing which magically turns them into a yellow gem 😂
The penguins move slowly enough that you can round them all up! Do they get faster as time goes on? The controls and power ups are satisfying.
Hi Miranda, thanks for checking in! There are actually a bunch of different enemy types at the moment, but they’re all using a Penguin sprite. I’ve changed it to have different speeds. I’m still not sure if the inertia works well, or if it will be better if enemies can turn on their heel, so to speak. (Change direction more quickly.)
