LOVe LoVE loVe lovE ITTT!!!
I have no idea how to select anything on the title screen.
I have no clue how to select things on the title screen. I'm using a keyboard. Do I need to have a second player?
I love this game so much currently, I'm supporting this big time. Out of curiosity, do you have the data for the moves? Something like dustloop so users can visualize the attacks and hitboxes.
Happy when see its free, sad when dont see Linux version, i will wait for it.
Btw, paying 3-7 dollars for this is kinda good, but if you cant, there is it for you, for free. Download this game🐐
The game looks and plays really good. It's a really good project and I hope you are able to finish it because I really enjoy it.
Just a fast question does it already works with controller or it is just playeable with keyboard (For some reason it dont cach my controller)
I use AntimicroX to mirror my keyboard controls to controller
Yea but something curius is that I tryed an arcade like controller I have and It works perfevtly so its no longer a problem
I'm really liking what's been worked on so far. Something I would give as a feedback and it's not related to gameplay yet, it's that Awaria shouldn't have been teased yet, but after the release or closed to the full release of the game.
In my opinion it will created unnecessary expectations when the main focus should be in the main Helltaker cast and in the unfortunate case that development becomes too tight to not go outside of Helltaker, it will create a bit of dissapointment.
That's just my 2 cents regarding Awaria being teased way too soon, but outside of that, I'm really happy the project continues and it's looking promising so far.
Good luck with the creation of this game, looks really cool!
i love everything about this! zdrada has all the swag combos so far. question, is this built on the mugen engine
Show post...
Will it work on steam deck?
Game doesn't respond to the keyboard input...
what OS do you have? i can play properly even when running the game through Proton on Linux
I figured it out, it was z and x buttons. Sorry, it's just a bit new for me. Decided to play this demo on steam deck instead of pc.
That is pretty dam cool. Alot of work is left but you built a good base
Will it work on steam deck?
🤍GREAT GAME🖤
Was having an issue when using a dualshock 4 where all inputs get mirrored by p2. Tried remapping, ds4windows, same result for both, wanted to know if there was any fix.
If it´s on practice mode you go to the opponent´s options and you change the "Opponent" type from Player to CPU or Dummy. If it´s not on practice mode, I don´t know what could it be.
ok thank you that worked.
honestly me and my friend played for about 3 hour although online versus isn't a thing yet the goofy draft story is fucking fun as hell. The 2 character's we have work very well to be out first 2 a fast chip damage heavy slapper and a brick with legs that hits like a freight train.
the game play is fantastic. the art is amazing. the reference colors are great. and the controls are so fucking smooth. you have made an amazing game and i cant wait for more.
yay helltaker!
Very good demo!
Love the character animations, looking good so far!
Pure gold right here
PEAKKKKKKK
Really cool, so happy it's now out
hope for look full game.
