[Crate Breaker]

Neat Atari 2600 aesthetic. I cannot figure out how to stop the red guy from stealing my coins... I suspect if I could figure it out that I would enjoy this game. Is there a way to whack the red guy?

CJspellsfish responds:

dang, I thought that the player would learn *not* to hit the red guys after seeing that hitting them took the coins. I'll add it in instructions.

[Exitor Demo]

A nice start to a game with some really cool ideas and mechanics. I like the pixel art style and clearly a lot of work has gone into it. However, it is lacking polish that will bring it to the next level:

1. Music / Ambient noise would help a lot.
2. Easier controls (having to click the button to switch was a bit annoying). Maybe having a shift arrows to use combat? Or some kind of other toggle? Perhaps mouse clicks? I'm not sure how to fix it but I know it feels a bit awkward.

Not bad, but not amazing. I'm looking forward to seeing an update.

Keep up the good work

EXOGamesExitor responds:

Thanks for the feedback. We will definitely look into making the controls easier for people to use and we are still working on the music.

[Amidst the Sky]

Great platforming puzzler! I need this for console or at least downloadable to PC. I checked your itch.io page and saw it is web only. Would love to get a non-web version.

Really nice pixel art style and a great atmosphere. It does an excellent job teaching the player what to do without out right displaying text instructions on the screen. Some of the inside colors are a bit too grey for my taste.

Definitely coming back to this one to finish it. Nice work!

Ferociter responds:

A (very big and less grey) sequel of this is in the making and will release on Steam, although it'll be on hold for quite a while. My plan is to release Amidst the Sky for free as well on there whenever the sequel is close to done, as a sort of promotion. That plan is subject to change.

[Into King Rabbit's Mansion]

What a great little stealth game! Nice work :)
