Version: 0.5.1.
Vorgeschlagen von: Beatdown_TV
Es lässt sich gut spielen und erinnert sehr stark an Hollow Knight, hat aber doch eigene Mechaniken, was das ganze völlig legitim macht. Ein paar der Animationen wirken noch etwas steif und unlebendig, aber im Großen und Ganzen sehe ich hier viel Potenzial.
Spaß hat es auf jedenfall gemacht, ist nur die Frage: Kann die Story mithalten?

Lacks optimization and sometimes texts disappear, but good game
Thank you! We will spend more time on optimization.
Pls, add ability to disable vibration on the controller
Will do!
I love this game so much, but I am not playing it until all of the updates come out. I am so sick of losing my data, and I am not gonna go through that again!
Hi MCAiryn,
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience, and we understand how frustrating it can be to lose your old game data. Unfortunately, maintaining backward compatibility is quite challenging for us at this stage and we still need a few more months to achieve a stable version of the game, but we’ll do our best to speed up the process!
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Don't worry, I have faith in you. I'll continue to wait for as long as it will take. I appreciate your effort, and I look forward to the full release. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
The parry update was already a treat, and this one so soon after feels like Christmas! Is 0.5.0 gonna be uploaded to Steam as well?
Thank you! Steam has also got this new version!
Got so invested into it that I forgot this was a demo, I can't wait for the full release!!
Thank you! We'll also try to update more content in the demo!
OMG BRO I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH ITS TRULY A FUN EXPERIENCE AND FUCKKK THAT SECOND BOSS (whooped his ass) BUT YEAH MAN THIS GAME IS REALLY GOOD HIGHLY RECOMMEND PLAYING THIS OR WATCHING ME PLAY IF INTERESTED : )
Thank you!

Js found out about the game, Imma try tmrw morning it looks good from the pictures

很喜欢这个风格，加油！
非常感谢！
Woah I cant believe its been over a year since I checked this demo out! Excited to see what's new, don't think i played since 0.1 and loved it then!
Thank you for following our game for so long! In the current version (0.4.1), we've added a new parry system and significantly changed the combat experience. We're now working on the next version (0.5.0), where we aim to make the parry system even more fun and satisfying!
这个游戏太好了，我很喜欢
谢谢！当前版本的格挡机制还比较基础，我们会在后续版本把这个机制改进得更加有趣！
希望可以看到更好的作品，继续加油，
Bro, is hollow knight edgy
The work on the visuals are insane, nice game
Thank you!
HOLA
Lol
Thank you so much for your feedback!
this game is an example when artist becomes programmer
Lol
I've completed this demo over a month ago and I'm looking forward to see what comes next. Keep up the great work!
Sorry for the late reply, and thank you for your support!
No problem! You deserve it!
Good job so far! I am going to attempt my first platformer, great inspiration!
Thank you! And good luck with your platformer!
Trying to use your sword in mid air half the time completely deletes any momentum you had. That is very poor control design. You should be able to jump and attack at the same time without issues.
Thank you for playing our game and the feedback! We will consider this attack/jump mechanism change you mentioned!
Thank you for playing our game and the great video!
Great game with beautiful art. I played the complete thing (v0.3). The warehouse keeper was a tough mofo.
Things that could be improved:
1. Sound bug: When I change the sound volume in the settings every second step (2, 4, 6...) is super loud for some reason.
2. Sounds that occur in the middle (like sword slashes) sometimes come from the left or the right. I think that should only be the case for sounds that clearly originate from the side (left or right third of the screen).
3. The blood(like) effects need to be reworked. The particles sliding on the floor look weird.
4. The symbols of the masks are a too abstract and don't look at all like the thing that they do (protection bubble, slash). It should be easier to recognize.
5. The player movement animations look a bit stiff and the mechanics could also be smoother. But don't ask me for details, it's just a feeling.
6. Windows thinks your exe is sus.
But really great work overall.
Thank you for playing our game and the feedback! We will check the issues you mentioned. And we don't know why Windows is giving that warning for the game file, it is just standard Unity build files and also passed in Steam build pipeline... however we will also check it.
Much appreciated your feedback.
By coincidence I found this platformer toolkit on Youtube today that lets you experiment with player movement variables.
I found it very insightful. Maybe you will as well.
Platformer Toolkit by Game Maker's Toolkit (itch.io)
Wow! Thank you for this, we will use this toolkit to check our platforming mechanism!
Es un juego bastante bueno, me encanto tanto en gráficos como en música y atmosfera, es bastante laberintico pero me gusta mucho y la dificultad es perfecta, lo suficiente difícil para entretener y no tan difícil como para cansar.
10/10
Thank you!
I Love the Game But I didn't completed
Thank you for playing our game! And indeed the game is a bit unbalanced now, we will adjust that in the future version. You could consider follow our twitter for future updates:)
Can you make an Android version available please?
Hi Nutellaflox, we are a small team currently focusing on PC version. We will consider mobile version in the future when we get enough resource.
does this game has jumpscare?
not when I played! It has a horror aesthetic but I wouldn't call it a horror game, just a dark metroidvania
Thank you for your comment!
Hi meds0, this is mainly a dark 2d metroidvania platformer with some horror visual elements, not very scary :)
Доволі весело ...
Thank you for playing our game and the video!

Thank you for playing our game!
Pretty sure its fake software, it popped up a windows protected your pc?
Sorry to hear you have trouble running the game, the game is developed using Unity engine and compressed using ZIP format, normally this should not trigger any safe warning in Windows. Can you send the screenshot of the problem to our email: info@studiowaterbear.com so we can check that problem?
I do not have a screenshot but its triggering it?
I'll try and work around it by turning it off.
Thank you!
Thank you for playing our game and the gameplay video, much appreciated that!
