Wwwwwooowwwee!! That's certainly some feedback! Thank you so much you guys, it's been a real treat to get such positive comments and constructive criticism from all of you. I've been tweaking the physics a bit and doing what I can here and there.
Sadly, I don't think I'll be able to include all the fixes I'd love to (i.e, a dynamic viewpoint) because to be honest, this is my first serious attempt at game creation. I'm a graphic designer by trade so my kung-fu lies in Photoshop, not code. I'll do everything I can, however, to take your comments into consideration and make this game as I can.
It will be a little on the brief side (about 7 levels, 4 boss fights) because I want to make something I can get out in complete form in a quick manner to see what people think of the Spez-man. That, and I don't want to burn myself out
But if it's received well and people like it, I've got a sequel brewing where Spezy will be using primarily melee weapons on a wild journey through a land of hairy tribal people or something. I'm also itching to create a cute shmup of some kind so I might throw that in between the two.
Thanks so much again everybody. I'll be releasing a new demo soon for you guys to try out!
