A downloadable First Game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

You are a knight who has fallen in battle. On your way to the afterlife your soul was cursed by the people you killed and consequently you were trapped in Limbo. Here you cannot die and unless you reach the shrine and rid yourself of the curse binding you, you will be stuck and doomed to repeat the journey forever.


This is my first 2D game and as a result is very simple and crude but it's a good starting point. I'd really appreciate any feedback and criticism(as long as it's constructive) as to how I can improve my skills :D

It's a very interesting concept, although there's a few things you need to improve upon. Such as, a menu and music. There's menu tutorials online, and you can get Copyright-free music or sound effects pretty easily. Also, the game is very glitched, sometimes the sprites don't load in right. Also, I don't know if this is intentional, but the arrow keys just make you fly? I'd also recommend getting better graphics, such as a pixel art style. Oh, and the really huge thing that you need to get is a checkpoint system, I made one mistake then had to retry everything, which is frustrating to the player and doesn't make you feel like you want to continue, escpecially when combined with the rest of the game. And finally, the game need to make you feel something. The ending has no impact, and the lack of sound really doesn't help. I'm excited to see how this game grows over time, this has potential.

Thanks a lot for your input, i was aware of a lot of these issues and being my first ever proper "game" I've made in my design class I wasn't entirely sure how to fix these issues especially within the given time frame. The lack of menus and music are definately a fault on my part and im considering giving these some proper work over the summer holiday. Yes, the checkpoint issue, i didn't want to add any (as a fan of games that are difficult) but considering how my game is really rough around the edges i think adding one half way through would be a good idea(i'd like to know your thoughts). As for the floating part im not entirely sure how to solve this issue as the movement code was something i received from a tutor i only really changed how fast the character moved. As far as graphics are concerned my main tutor advised against pixel art saying it wouldn't fit in our time frame, but I'd definitely want to try something better than mouse drawn illustrator assets 😅😅 (I'll look into assets not appearing, i think it has something to do with them overlapping). I really appreciate the input and advice, any constructive criticism and help is extremely useful :)
