    Developer here, you guys would not believe how hard I fought with that mouse! I'm a keyboard and mouse player too so to me it was important to get it to work smoothly for combat because I rarely used the controller, glad to see that the in-game mouse control satisfies you despite the issues (even when I disappointed with the menu! I will definitely look into that), there is some good amount of improvements and fixes for the release day and this kind of videos with tons of feedback help a lot.
    edit: Reworked the entire game to make it mouse friendly, hope this feels good now! I did everything I possibly could think about, every single actions is also open to rebind in the options, so if something is not convincing please remember that!

      Just stumbled upon this game today on Steam, and it looks incredible. Love the pixel art and horror elements, excited to see how Souls-inspired this is. The gameplay looked somewhat like Hades to me, which is a great thing.

    Hey @Splattercatgaming , just to come back to this, based on your feedback we completely reworked the mouse interaction with the game, now every menu should be 100% clickable (but trust me, it was definitely not about just "let it there"!! Took some effort and a chunk of my mental sanity hahaha), I also improved the mouse response and added a new option in the menu, where the player can choose between attacking towards the mouse or the facing direction (so you basically aim your attacks with "awsd", preferred by some keyboard users), also every single action now can be rebind to another key, I would love to know your opinion, always willing to improve, our artist will also look into improving the mouse icon for those snow backgrounds.

    It's obvious to me that the eyes that open during the wave fights aren't an enemy and just indicate that the battle is still going. The circular blast when you hit it is used in a lot of games to indicate invulnerability. But design language isn't universal and that's not how Splat read it. That element should be tutorialized or redesigned. Maybe removing all hit feedback from the eye would better indicate that you can't interact with it.

    I also consider that it's confusing to have an enemy that you are not supposed to hit as the waves spawn. Although it became clear when I saw that the waves were different each time that killing the minions was what was progressing the level. But in that case, I would suggest making the non damageable enemy to not show any effects when hit. Or, the effect and the sound should be more indicative of the fact that you are not inflicting any damage, like a "clang" sound and maybe your character bouncing back a bit as if your attack had been parried.

    The mouse cursor vanished when you fired after dashing across the goop (23:14). It remained gone while you were melee attacking, and returned when you started firing again (23:23). Looks like a graphics glitch, and a temporary fix at the cost of resources.

    I am not really with you on mouse control. While it is more precise, it also has its down sides. With a controller i can lean back and put my feet up while I play. I also don't think its necessarily correct to assume controller = console. I'm probably a touch older than you. I had computers in the 90's and I always had a joystick/controller even way back then. I get it but just saying its not really fair to say "make for mouse and keyboard if pc." I will also say I think your cursor issue is probably also due to being controller optimized. You wouldn't really need a cursor initially with a directional pad because you would just flick to the direction of the attack you want.

    • @Drank4
      @Drank4 Год назад

      Thanks for the feedback Brian, I read similar comments and will definitely look into that. We focused a lot on making the gameplay fluid for mouse and keyboard, that had drastic changes over the years until we felt that we got it right, but the menu always stayed keyboard only since day one and we didn't gave it much though because we got used to it, controllers are easy to map for these kind of games but hopefully we can make everyone happy with some tuning, let me know what you think about the controller if you get to play, I definitely can do with the experience (I had very little hands in the 90's so no controller for me, plugged ones at least!).

    While I too am a die hard KB+M player of PC games, I don't think that can be considered part of the platform for gaming anymore then a controller/gamepad. PC are devices that can use many input devices and controllers have been a big part of that for the last 40 years. I think games designed for controllers over KB+M is valid.

    Might be due to M&B not having the best representation of spear fighting, outside of on horseback. The momentum-based damage system doesn't help on-foot spear fighting much, and it should allow some swing animations for less base damage, or make it possible for an enemy to damage themselves if they try to push in right on the tip of your spear to attack, like actually holding a spear on point functions.

    I don’t make games, but I’m not here about the mouse thing too, no I just wanted to stop and say it was supposed to reflect Symphony of the Night, however, it did invoke Twilight to me as well, unless they were, but I’m going with homage to SOTN.
    I will watch the video, and edit my full opinion at the end, but not Twilight.
    The puzzle with the statues makes me think of the one you do in The Witcher 3, the one you do with the witch who looks like a teacher, or the one from Dragon Warrior VII but that’s a me thing.
    Not what it is or isn’t, but the game looks like Legend of Darksouls for the Super Nintendo, which is awesome, but not the point. The controls and gameplay look fluid and responsive. Also, for like a fat second, I thought Splat was ready to rip this game apart, and seemed to become pleasantly surprised by how it plays.
    The legend of Princes Alucard: Adventures in get gud land of the rising sun.
    Jokes aside, this game looks fun as hell. Maybe the mouse thing needs to be solved, but I used to play games like this on consoles back in the day, every game in that joke name was a game I love and have played too damn much, so if the idea was to invoke any of that imagery they have succeeded.
    I got off point, the game is on a PC, and while I nearly exclusively play computer these days, the Nintendo kid in me wants a game like that, that can be played with a controller but it IS on the PC and you can’t just walk into PC space without even a little love for the mouse, because that almost seems rude to do.
    Side note: I don’t care about that, I think this game is going to get installed, good show Splat!
    P.S. Side note: Given all the games this game makes me think of, I feel like it’s not wrong to get a hint of RM2K in the tiles.
    Symphony of the Night, Link to the past and just a hint of a specific kind of retro tile sets all laid upon top down Dark souls.
    I think its genre is 90s kid retro edition 64.

    As a game developer myself, designing mouse and keyboard control is a huge pain in the ass, because using a mouse is a completely different way of interaction. It's like doubling your work load, because every element needs two sets of instructions to use and interact with everything else. I can totally understand not supporting mouse, which I almost did, but then realised as splattercat pointed out, that players expect both on PC.
    My game is keyboard centric, but has mouse controls, I expect beginners to use a mouse and then start using the keyboard exclusively once they are comfortable with the control system.

    I can understand why controls are so important. I bought the 1st Dragon Age game and they just shat on everyone buying it for a console. Well this is a PC game. No you released on console...well it was never meant to be a console game...but we will take your money.

    Última gravestone: Here lies Splat, not to be confused with the cat in the hat. Or Here lies Splat, tried to loot inside his mother-in-law's house and broke a vase and was never seen again.

    I could listen to you narrate a book. Like Lovecraft or something. Love your voice.
