Nice job dude! The speedrun direction I think was a smart choice. After having just played Moonstuck from Comfy, I can definitely say this is far less rage inducing :)

😅 Glad to hear the positive feedback on the choice. I liked the "idea" of a rage game, but you can tell from me adding checkpoints and just the way I was setting up the levels..... I wasn't originally making what people would consider a "rage" game. 😅

Lovely to see how feedback goes into your dev process. Great vid. I use Godot, there may be an easier way to do it but I just use a formatted string. So it would be something like var myRoundedVar = "%.2f" % myFloatVar.

I love hearing feedback on my work. I of course don't use all of it, but not listening to what other people want from their games is the easiest way to make a game nobody will like. Imo. 😅 Also, that's interesting. 🤔 Someone suggested an extension for my engine that adds some more built in math equations to play with. But I just find it weirdly fascinating how it all works. 🤔

The 60 fps limit stems from vsync BTW. There's gotta be a way to disable it in the engine, and then your fps will shoot up. I tried this in Godot and my prototype went from 100fps (100Hz monitor) to 3200 fps

My laptop monitor's refresh rate is 60, does Vsync link it to that or something?😕
@bruderdasisteinschwerermangel

Yes exacfly, v sync synchronizes when your GPU pushes out a new frame to the vertical refresh rate of your display*. *note that you can set the refresh rate you use with your monitor in windows. So you can run a 100Hz display at lets say 60Hz and then v sync would sync to 60Hz.

The best alternative I can think of to rounding the float to tenths, is to initialize the timer to -0.1, but only show a display variable initialized to 0 that checks if it is smaller than the timer and increases itself by 0.1 when it is. Alternately use a fixed framerate so you can multiply by a truncated constant (preferably 50fps / 0.02). (Or I suppose use string processing after converting it to a string, but I doubt that would be faster?!)
@HelperWesley

Ooooohhhh. Changing the timer itself would be a neat solution. 🤔 But I think the devs of my engine caught wind of what I was saying, because the leaderboards now have a "round to X decimal" option. 🥳

Interesting, this was both educating and entertaining. Could you've added a secret passage where the "mistaken arrow" was and get anybody that uses the shortcut to slip and get gamed by the blades? Or add multiple shortcuts to lure the player and then when they use the path, woosh they slip and either fall or get slashed. That would be extra work though😅.

Fun game! I played through the web version and here are my comments: There is a small click-like sound on the jump, it's not terrible, but you do jump a lot. Fading out/in the waveform at the click is a pretty quick fix in audacity that should clean that up. There was maybe one or two times it felt like the wizard's shots were killing me when I felt like it shouldn't, like when it was tickling my feet or something, but it seemed okay. I wish there was a little more of a visual indicator (color shift? transparency change?) to show when it was active, although it's certainly something you develop a feel for. It felt weird to me to not be able to grab onto the edge of upward facing corner tiles, like they should have all been grabable tiles. Another oddity with grabbable tiles is that I felt like I should have been able to 'drop' from them by pushing away from the wall. Also in the heavy climbing section on 3 in particular, it felt like it would have been nice to grab them while pushing toward them from a little further away (above especially?) It felt like I just failed to grab them randomly when going through such areas. Oh, and early on especially I expected to grab them automatically when going right down past them, as when dropping from the brick above. Maybe a small autograb hitbox would have been fun. The wizard was pretty good as an enemy. He spawn killed me once or twice, but it was rare enough that it wasn't a problem (as long as the timing on 4 can't stick you in an infinite, which I feel like it probably can't given the way it's staggered?) It would have been nice to do more with him in a story sense (imply why the conflict exists, what your goal is or whatever.) The ending could have been stronger if you weren't going to do a cinematic. Finally, it felt like the drop down platforms were underutilized in the levels. The rage-game / level navigation stuff worked well with them, but It feels like there should have been sections where you were using them to dodge (popping up and down to dodge saws and such.) There were a lot of good aspects to it, the graphics were solid, the game played well and there weren't any bugs as far as I could tell.

like at 3:30 or whenever u talk about fps u are technecly correct but half wrong so yes what u see is limited by the screen/monitors refesh rate common one is 60hz or 59.99hz(meanng 60 fps) but the internal fps of the game thats a bit different for example valorant or any game that lets u uncap for fps u can get more then your monitor allows but u only ever see 60 fps or what ever your monitor or screen is . lets use my pc as a example when i play valorant i can get up to 250 when my pc wants to work this is the internal fps which basically just mean yah if u had that hight of refresh rate then u can see that much but i can only ever see 165 fps because that is my monitors max 165hz
