Welp
1. Collision edges should be perceived as clear as player character.
2. Saturation and brightness is the matter of perception and you can make sprites pop up with bigger brightness.

That was interesting to read JWK5. Always impressed at the understanding some people have with the use of colour in games. I've been distracted by Ludum Dare lately but did get the chance to do a bit of work on some of my contestants for my alien dating game.  |

@JWK5 Thanks for your suggestions! There isn't much saturation because it's meant to be a fog. I should add some fog clouds, heh. Here's how it looks without fog overlay: http://i.imgur.com/LNGqqXe.pngBtw, I've added archers.  |

Here's how it looks without fog overlay: http://i.imgur.com/LNGqqXe.pngIf it's fog you should still give objects more saturation on their higher levels. That statue, for example, could be desaturated at the bottom and have no fog at the top. |

You can't carry bows or any other weapons other than your hammer (it's too heavy!). So, in order to shoot arrows, you need to kill archers and control them with your ghost. Also, ghost can fly which helps too.  |

Holy fuck, stellar animation.
Be wary of having too much of a charge on attacks because that might ruin the snappy feel of combat.
Unless it's a turn-based combat system in which case it doesn't matter.

Heyo Torchkas I assume you are referring to mine...? If so thanks a lot for the good word!!! For this souls inspired APRG (yeah I know souls again..) I am trying to make each character really distinct and each play style unique, that's why you see in the first gif the knight has a really quick attack pattern (low damage, less stamina consumption, less knockback) and the mercenary on the second gif has a extremely slow attack(huge damage, big stamina, decent knockback not yet reflected). Shameless promotion: dev log and twitter in signature hurhur... |

Agreed, indeed. Also, is that shaky cam actually in the game?

Aww, wow thanks! and the camera movement was actually me just moving the mouse around. There's no automatic shaky cam, although I have messed with it. In the end though it was kind of annoying for the camera to be going wherever it wanted. it might be cool if it was extremely subtle though.
