Great game but we need to be able to download it please,
playing in browser is simply not feesible.
Linux build would also rock! Excited to see where this goes! 8)
Great game! You definitely captured the feel of old metroidvania games with the unforgiving difficulty and precise level design. I really liked how the player could not attack, I think this made the game more interesting.
A few minor critiques:
- I don't think the blur effect added much to the experience, I turned it off right away.
- I didn't like having to hold down the z key constantly to get the faster movement speed.
- The scroll hints felt unnecessary; the player can find everything through careful observation.
- Trying to get the cross over the lava and having to wait for the elevator ride after each death was pretty annoying.
Thank you so much! I´m glad that you liked it!
Your comments are also very welcome, they will be useful for future games!
Hey, nice job! Looks awesome!
Hey, thank you so much!
this is a great little game! thanks for making it. here's a few things:
- thanks for having the option to turn off that filter that makes everything super blurry. it's too blurry otherwise.
- when you pick up the chalice, the message that appears on screen is in spanish even when playing the game in english.
- the chalice run is so hard. i'm dying. i have all the hearts and i'm dying
Thank you much for your kind words and feedback! I´m very happy to hear that you liked it!
The filter seems to be blurrier in some screens and resolutions vs anothers. Also I had put it becuse I like the blurry graphics of old consoles in old tvs but not many people share that view, that is why I decided to make it optional.
The message bug was pointed before, I should have fixed it many months ago... I was waiting because I planned to make a major update of the game but at the end I had no time for that and I forgot about fixing bugs... my fault... I will try to fix it some day. In any case it says " You´ll never return the Chalice to the Church".
Concerning the chalice run, the advice I can tell you is to take it easy without hurrying at all, the screen shake, acelerated music and spikes coming out of the floor in the first rooms may make you run, but after you get to the Collapsed Cave (I have just found a typo in the room name) go slowly and don´t get too worried about the Demon, if you go calmly it is very easy to avoid his shoots. For me the Unholy Basilica is more difficult.
Thanks again for commenting! :)
Loved it!
I feel very happy yo hear that. Thank you!!
Excellent little thing, I enjoyed this a lot! The music files currently 404 though :(
Thank you so much! It is very nice to hear that the game is being enjoyed! :)
Where do you get the 404 error? I would like to fix it but I can play the game in different computers without any issue in the music.
I'm playing in Safari on MacOS, which does not have .ogg support and thus tries to get .m4a files for the music; I'm assuming this is something the engine automatically does for cross-browser support?
I hadn't actually noticed there was meant to be music until until I reached the full choir, so I checked the in-browser Developer Tools and there are messages appearing in the browser console saying the .m4a files yield a 404:

https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/287757/media/f...
(etc)
Thank you again! I didn´t know that Safari doesn´t support .ogg, and in Mac I have had only tried with Firefox and Chrome where it plays correctly. I have now tried in Safari and yes, the music is not playing . For the sounds both .ogg and .m4a are there (altough some sound weird in Safari) but because the game was meant to be played online I only put the .ogg files to make the game data as small as possible. I will put the .m4a music files there when I update the game. In the meantime I can suggest you playing in another browser.
Again thank you for playing and for spotting this problem! :)
