Fun stuff! Indeed a bit spicy. I love the music and the extend voice sample! And like TurdBoomerang i was also a bit unsure of the controls for the spear and what it did. Will use what i read!
The pico-8 release of Crossgunr Infinite is one of my most-played carts ever.
This new version is immediately really fun. It's not super clear how I am supposed to use the spear. Should I HOLD the button, or just tap it? Is it supposed to clear the screen/destroy enemy bullets? Or just serve as a finishing move to defeat an enemy and clear nearby bullets as a result?
I found that was an overwhelming amount of stuff on screen at first, and the FPS was pretty inconsistent when the screen was full of powerups and bullets. I am using a relatively low-spec laptop, but it does have 12gb ram, and I can typically able to play modern 2d indies with no framerate issues.
I am so excited to see your continued updates on this project! My best score on the demo stage so far is 5.2 million!
Thank you for taking the time to write this feedback! It's great!
The spear just shoots off whether you tap or hold, no need to hold it, it will attach to an enemy and when that enemy dies, a small localized bullet cancel occurs where the spear was.
The spear does do damage over time.
There are other things the spear does but I will leave you to discover that!
