Also new health/mana bar top left instead of front and centre.
 
#1 rule for a developer on Gaf: Don't read Gaf. Too many people here are incapable of seeing the world past their own nose.

This game looks incredible.
 
Gane seems to be my kind of game, anyone knows which will the price on steam? Will it have a full controller support?
 
Hopefully it's better than Odallus. I don't dislike Odallus, but its design can be frustrating rather than challenging and it's a little too transparent with its Castlevania influence. Don't get me wrong, the Castlevania influence drove me to check it out, but like for instance that world map is a hysterical ripoff of Super Castlevania IV.

Oh, wow, that's a surprisingly low price. I'd gladly have paid more for it than $13, but I'm not going to complain if that is the price they decided on.

We have plans for a 3 part franchise so want to get Part 1 into as many peoples hands as possible! :)

? Top left is pretty standard...

I know it blows your mind that someone else might have a different preference than you but I said would manage. Don't see the big deal about asking for a movable health bar. It's very small and takes up little screenspace. If it's not doable, that's cool I'll make do. A lot of games I play don't have a tiny health bar in the top left of the screen.

Looks great, wouldn't mind to be able to move the health bar in a diff spot. Literally the worst spot for me is top left but I can manage.

It was previously bottom centre, see below. But we found it obscured some of the platforming sections too much.

the icon changes according to your active weapon - Ice Axe not shown. Mana fire ball and smart bomb dont need to be shown. You can use fireball as long as you have some mana (shown bar below health) and you can only activate smart bomb with full mana.

Probably not the right adjective you'd want me to use to describe the game but it's just beautiful. It's like a dark, pixely, Ori and the Blind Forest.
 
This is the first time I've even entered this thread as the title says coming to Wii U. I had no idea it was coming to everything.

Looks great, but please change the thread title.
 
Oh, this coming out in 4 days? That is great news. This really does look very cool.

Anybody know of this other 2d indie game that looks kinda like this but there are giants in the background as well, that you can climb? I think they showed it at last E3 for PS4.

You're probably thinking of Death's Gambit.
