Does not work for me.

Is there a 32 bit version of this game?

I think your game is really good, I've seen that you have already received a lot of feedback like control schema, bugs, etc.

I don't know if someone already said this but I feel like the camera is a bit close, you can't too far away when the enemies start attacking, I think it'd good if you could zoom out the camera a little bit, but that's just my opinion.

Anyway keep the good work man, the sprites, animations and character control feel excellent, you're doing really good!

Also I don't find Schizo offensive at all, but just as you said, at these times on 2023 there's always someone offended by anything you do, so you just keep moving forward.

Having played the demo, I can say I'm definitely impressed with what you've put forward so far, but I can point to some areas I think could be improved.

Personally, the control scheme on keyboard is a bit clunky, while it can be managed with 1 hand, its very much awkward and caused my hand to cramp a bit towards the end of my first play session, the game also doesn't communicate that the player has a double jump very clearly.  I also was unable to locate a method to quit the game from the pause menu.

I agree with other reviews stating upgrade boxes could be a bit easier to destroy, especially with a strict time limit.

Speaking of, I feel like the game is fighting with itself about being a timed moderately precise collect-a-thon, while also using procedural generation for the levels.  It makes it hard to figure out paths within the time limit, and also makes it hard to earn any time bonuses to actually afford the upgrades.

(Of note, the grenade upgrade does not increase your grenade capacity, or start you with more in new stages)

I would suggest ditching or greatly extending the time limit, providing other rewards for completing with an excess of time-  Or if you want to keep a very precise and snappy run and gun feel, I would actually say hand-designing levels would lead to a better game over all.

My other gripe, at current at least, is its a bit harsh to have to restart level 1-5 just to try the boss again.

Lastly I'll mention a minor bug that doesn't fit anywhere else: If you jump and hit a corner right while ascending, you can get launched vertically significantly higher than normal.

As I said, this is a really good game so far, and I had a great time with it, but there are some rough edges that could use some polish, and I genuinely hope you experiment with hand-designing the levels and upgrade placements.

Put on steam w/ gamepad support?

first off i enjoyed the game very much i see it having more potential in areas.

1.the missile launcher lacks kick in terms of visuals and damage i would like less missiles and more damage per ammo box that would make it more of a treat to find them. id prefer about two hits per ammo box to break it if i have a strong weapon like that. it lacks visual punch maybe some level of flash and smoke (maybe slight screen shake or something similar) and i didn't notice any splash damage but maybe i missed it. at one point i was aiming upward near a corpse i believe and the missiles were hitting the corpse instead of my target.

2. the player marker should flash or be red or something that stands out to be easier to see especially since the adrenaline will (hopefully) be flowing when things get intense, that slow down is a potential buzz kill.

3. the machine gun also lacks punch the projectiles don't seem that interesting to shoot.

I hope you dont take these criticisms too harshly i did enjoy your game. I will be back to play more and i wish you a successful launch.

Only saying this cause I haven't seen anyone else point it out and you may not know (I certainly didn't until recently). But the term 'Schizo' is considered an offensive word by many. Do with that information what you will.

Crazy gameplay! High adrenaline rush at points. 

I loved the pace and the way the game feels. It feels really great to kill the alpacas (no offence to alpacas), especially in certain moments like on a straight platform, when there's 3-4 of them in a row and you land on the platform into a straight run just blowing them up. The art, music and everything is A+. The UI is great - just no distractions at all - only what I wanna know.

I didn't like the controls personally - I was both shooting and moving with the same hand (left hand) which I'm not used to. For me, what would have been nice was something like K (shoot) and L (grenade) which would have let me use both hands, more importantly, only the left hand for movement. Please do check this with a larger sample size though. Didn't get a chance to try it with gamepad yet.

Since the gameplay is so fast, I somehow got confused(?) with an open map. I didn't "want" to slow down but at times I was forced to switch from adrenaline mode to decision-making mode. Some suggestions: 

1. Make it pure linear, going from left to right. Just blow everything up behind the player so they can't move back ever. Verticality can still be used (give the player an option to take a higher path or lower path) to give players a sense of exploration and secret finding.

2. Add in-level objectives (reach checkpoint A, save person B...) with clear map markers or direction indicators on-screen.

The suggestions suck, but I hope that they highlight my general confusion - which is that despite the task of collecting crystals, I still didn't feel a strong sense of "where to go", or an "objective" that I could work towards. Like I had to actively think about it, which then stopped my rampage.

This is a banger of a game and I heartily wish you and the team all the very best! I would be most happy to test this whenever you have an updated build.

The controls are so bad :(
