GOBLIN CRIMES

How do you play it, is the demo still available?

Okay. The mechanics are absolutely amazing in their current state. Well done.

I never played Vanquish before but holy frik, after playing this I want to make something like it lol

No real complaints apart from what everyone else said in the below comments, however I found a bug. I'm guessing you're shooting a raycast from the camera's position ?

If I may give a suggestion, maybe offset the origin position from where you're shooting the raycast so that this doesn't happen ?

Also I think kills should re-fill your stamina bar to incentivise continuous movement, because it was a little annoying to wait for the bar to have to re-fill before I could do anything

But otherwise, the game plays smoother than butter. Amazing job

Congrats on releasing a demo!!! it's been fun to watch the project evolve on twitter.

Some feedback:

• it's a little frustrating to leave a grind and not keep my momentum as I jump off. maybe you can add some way to separate player controlled and uncontrolled forces so you can carry that launch momentum and combine it with player intended control
• the camera behaviour felt inconsistent between different states. some of this was the very high sensitivity (which I couldn't figure out how to change), but staff sitting, swimming, and grapple swinging cameras all felt pretty different and jarring
• there's a lot of inputs! I felt overwhelmed and had trouble remembering all the keys. I wonder if you could overload fewer buttons with more context specific interactions
• I wonder if mounting the staff and entering pole swing could be automatic when you get close rather than hitting Q
• I found I could get up any wall by spamming spacebar at the right cadence
• the freshest piece seemed to be using the staff, finding spots it could stick in the ground and walls, and figuring out how to use that
• the guns felt good to use but seemed pretty overpowered. I wonder if you're planning on having ammo. A less common technique that might be cool is to make each gun only fire one or a few bullets (thinking of the uzi) and then break so you're more desperately scrounging for stuff. Might create some interesting choices to limit you to carrying one gun at a time and staff being your 'nothing carried' state.
• seems like you have plenty of mechanics to start making some levels! working on a similarly mechanically dense game I think that process will show you a lot about what the best parts of the moveset are and where you need to pick constraints. we weren't really making forward progress until we started prioritizing completing real levels
• I'm excited to see how the world and story combine with the mechanics set. Goblins are such a good match with the grunge-y aesthetics

Tested on linux via Lutris, works fine, frames chug a bit but im literally playing on a toaster. Throwing the staff on the walls you can run along sometimes completely borks the lighting for a few seconds. Overall movement is fun,
kicking and jugglling dudes in the air is VERY fun.

feels weird that attack is bound to F instead of left mouse, but i guess left mouse is for aiming the staff throws? Dunno it felt kinda off till i got used to it.

Great so far, very promising.

AMAZING GAME! Had lots of fun playing it. I recommend this game. 

Creator Note- I would recommend bringing the default sensitivity down to 1.0
