A metroidvania using the mouse is a unique idea, but I don't really think the current mechanics justify its use when you could map its functions to a couple buttons on the keyboard instead. It would make more sense to use the mouse if the character's weapon required 360-degree aim, and a hammer is a confusing choice of weaponry in that regard.
Speaking of keyboard buttons, the keyboard controls are not very comfortable to use in conjunction with the mouse. I personally prefer the arrow keys to WASD, and while I'm glad the game gives me the option, I would like the functions of the W key to be mapped to the Up Arrow key as well.
Any other complaint I have would be nitpicking at this point. You have a decent foundation for a metroidvania here. It just needs a little fixing up. Keep at it!
That's good because I actually have mapped the controls to the arrow keys, and other buttons. I was going to have a mechanic called mecha mind waves where you click on things but I remapped that to the keys as well.
I Mapped everything to the arrow keys as well as WASD so that it fits everyone's playstyle. But I am not releasing a second Beta so you will have to wait for the full release :)
Hey I like the idea. Hope it would get better with time. I will recommend others if they would like your game. Better work on your input system. Also you could check out my game for free Guiding Experience. Just fill the price as 0.
thanks, I will try your game out, what do you mean by work on the input system though?
I really think it is not easy to shoot for the laptop users.
yes, that is fair, I designed it with the mouse in mind heavily as in the full release there is a mechanic that will use the cursor and will be really hard to do without the mouse, however I have not implemented it too much and I could try to map it to a button. Also It would be very helpful if you could open up the game and click the feedback button, as there is a small google form that if you filled out would be greatly appreciated.
