SkyKeepers

[h1]Basic Info[/h1] [b]Genre:[/b] 2D Combat Platformer [b]Difficulty:[/b] Medium-Hard [b]I streamed the game at [url=https://www.twitch.tv/videos/155597190]twitch[/url].[/b] In Skykeepers you first play as Pelagi, the son of the Sky Keeper tribe's chieftain Tangi. Pelagi is ready to be come a man and receive is Tatua and become the new chieftain. In order to receive his Tatua, Pelagi must get a special log and a special leaf to make the ink for his tatua. Pelagi picks a corrupted leaf and gets hit by an illness. In the second part of the game, you play as Tangi, Pelagi's father. You have to rebuild the Sky Keeper tribe after your son's illness. And of course honor your tribe's ancient task of defending against the Wa'Kine, evil spirits, In order to rebuild you must save villagers that have been kidnapped and do quests for the villagers that remain. In doing so you are rewarded with a stronger tribe, which in turn means you can rebuild and upgrade. Rebuilding and upgrading lets you more easily traverse the increasingly difficult levels. You have the ability to spirit walk, which is teleporting. You can teleport to Sky Keeper stones and damaged enemies. The game has dodging, parrying, basic attacks and special attacks. You start with 4 different special attacks, but as you go on through the game, you can unlock new special attacks. You can do mid-air attacks and combo it with teleporting to the damaged enemy and then do special attacks. You can also wall-jump. The game runs fairly smoothly even on older machines, but the controls are slightly unresponsive and very floaty. Wall-jumping is iffy, as half of the time it did not connect and the other half it did not wall-jump as I wanted it to. The game has a 2D art-style and a Hawaiian theme. The soundtrack fits the theme very well and the sound effects are top quality and help you being immersed. I also encountered a pretty game-breaking bug involving bugs, quite literally. When ever you encounter flies, if you do not manage to kill them fast enough and they perform their 'dive bomb' attack, you get locked out of your dodge, parry, attack and special attack. All enemy animation halts as well, which means that you can not complete the room you are currently in and will be forced to re-start that section. This is ANYTIME you encounter flies. This is evident in the last hour of my stream. If it were not for the floaty controls, iffy wall-jumping and the game-breaking bug, I would recommend this game. I want this game to be good, I really do. I want the game to be good, but floaty controls is a no-go in any platformer and a game-breaking bug like that is just not okay.
