Nice game but the ink behaved weird a little. Not what I expected it to do

Nicely done! I definitely feel the Vampire Survivors influence . . . and also slither.io if that makes any sense? The art is very cute. (By the way, I think the fix for the loop detection is to check if your last line segment crosses a previous segment rather than checking if it touches the starting point.)

Developer

thank you for the tip! ill check that out. never played slither.io but i see what you mean :)

Cute! The looping functionality seemed a little buggy (sometimes I would draw a full circle but it would cut off at half), but I like the drifty nature of the gameplay and the calming soundtrack. :) 

Developer

thank you!

Great stuff bro, loved the concept, may be some better movement animations or variety to artwork can ramp it even more, loved it.

I like the idea, it will be nice to add different patterns to draw

Amazing first entry and that too solo! Really loved it. Just needs a bit more polishing on the looping around enemies, sometimes the loop detection is not accurate. That's all!

Developer(+1)

thanks so much! I couldn’t find time to perfect the loop detection over the weekend sadly

Sometimes when i do a loop the enemies dont get destroyed/damaged. Other than that, nice game, it gets a bit hard quick.

Developer

thanks for the feedback! Yeah I’m aware the circling can be buggy unfortunately. Difficulty was the intended experience at least

Neat concept! I think the ideal way to play this is probably with some kind of pen tablet. It was a little buggy where sometimes loops wouldn't register and sometimes it counted as a loop with less than half of it drawn. Lots of potential!

Developer

thank you!

Its a cool concept that would be super solid with some small bug fixes. Nice work!

Developer

thanks so much!

It was a cute little game with nice cute little art. I love the fact that you draw to do damage! Cute little guy too!

Developer

thanks for the kind words!

Not sure if I played it right, but my first thought was I needed to protect the guy by drawing around him. Turns out that works and the game would never end, unlimited high score.

Developer

I know someone else pointed this out, I need to fix it :(

Developer

thank you!!

Fun concept for sure. Gaining more ink over time always feels good. As others have said it seems a bit buggy. Great first try though!

Developer

thanks for the feedback! :)

i like the concept

Developer

thanks!

Quite fun! Visuals are nice. There is some bugs, and it feels somewhat awkward to play. I pretty much looped myself around, became immortal, and enemies died by simply touching me, fun bug to discover.

Thanks! I wish I had time to fix this bug before the end of the jam haha
