Reviews for "Narcissus"

I really fuck wid it, fr. Ion kno what these n***az are talkin about when they bring up key pressin errors, but tha shit workz fine to me. Tha only thing that fk'd up was when I pressed pause (screen paused but didn't know menu), then after I un-clicked it, a pause menu showed up. But it went away after I died, so itz all good. But tha real question is, WHAT IS THAT SONG. I NEED ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

AlexVsCoding responds:

Thanks for pointing it out about the menu - I am aware of the issue and am finding a way to address it. Basically you can't pause until the level has finished transitioning but the true/false statement (that says whether the game is paused or not) is still able to change. This means when you press pause immediately, the graphics for the pause menu appear when it's unpaused and disappear when it's paused (the opposite of what it's meant to do).

The name of the song is called Uno by my good friend Luke Smith. There's a link to his soundcloud account in the description to the game.

Awesome sound track It is hard to play alone.... Would be nice if Luke Smith had a newgrounds account for his music. Suggest? I do like the concept my type of platformer and also like how the menu button sounds like it adds onto the music being played. The game also looks really nicely made. Im glad I clicked on this game for the dailys.

AlexVsCoding responds:

Luke has a Soundcloud account - the music that he produces on there is very different stuff but I'll definitely mention it to him if there's demand! Link to soundcloud is here! https://soundcloud.com/pb-lead-1

Soundtrack is awesome. I don't have enough words to describe this game.
The only bad thing this game has got is that is a bit difficult to play alone.

Really, one of the best games I've ever played here. Still fresh as it was the day I first played it. Great soundtrack, atmosphere and challenge. Even if it was just a flick on the narcissus myth, it still kinda makes me reflect on things without even needing to get all pretentious like some games. Just nice. A real hidden gem.

AlexVsCoding responds:

I genuinely appreciate this feedback. A lot. Finding myself laughing though about how off I was with the colour palette for this one, as well as the UI design being shoddy (Probably explains hidden gem status). I've released an App of the game with those two things fixed as well as a bunch more levels, and since that's run its course (Was launched in February) I'll probably release a remastered version of this game on here when I launch the android version. Thanks again for your feedback.

That's awesome! Challenging without being frustrating. The music is great and the concept of controlling two characters is finally put in a not-annoying form. Only thing I have to mention negatively: these make-you-jump-higher panels let me sometimes jump without me pushing any buttons - is that intended? Or vice versa: They do not enlarge my jump, don't know if that is my keyboard or a small bug.
That'll be it, I really like that one :)
