Forty Eight Foe
Pet Limpet (formerly Dorkmouse) presents a new metroidvania with original art and music.
Guide service droid FO48 around an abandoned research station, and recover the 48 production orbs, whilst eliminating copious organic foe.
This is a reasonably tricky platformer with a few puzzles to solve in order to progress. I didn't want there to be a tutorial - but make sure you use air jumps and attach the switch to the elevator. Killing foe can open doors. Oh, and hold down to get your blade back!
Keys are wasd j and k and space to jump - change them on the home page.
collecting an orb saves your progress

Fun game! The art is very trippy, and at the start is confusing with many things happening, but after that the game have interesting level design, the combat is fun, there is a lot of knockback and movement, and the overheat and recovering your sword are good mechanics that spice it up, but sometimes with many enemies at the same time they hit you one after another instantly that can be confusing or frustating, it would be cool some invicibility frames after being hit . The text on the bottom left of the screen helps you to know what to do that's very useful. And the music fits nice the game.
Great - many thanks for that. I wondered there was too much knock back and perhaps a bit more recovery time would be in order. I appreciate too that the start is a bit full on. I was going to have an introductory scene that introduces the mechanics but then decided - to erm just get on with it. This is exactly the sort of feedback i was looking for - so many thanks for taking the time.
