came across the video on YouTube, love the controls but i honestly prefer the mouse punching over the controller but I would still play with a controller on console happily.
Awsome, mate especially on a controller , but it'll be a great idea if you add different animations for blocking and punching also can you add something like special ability when it loads when you perform a series of perfect hits, just saying. P.S. I kinda love the sounds.
I saw the ''internet played my game'' video randomly on Youtube and wanted to give it a try. With a controller the experience is epic, and thought it gonna be harder since the dev himself is saying it, but it take a about a minute max to get it. I also tried with mouse and keyboard, it is ok but the experience isn't as good as with a controller. People already asked for an online multiplayer option, and I think it would be amazing too!
running on Pop!OS, I used steam Proton 5.13-5, though i had to remove the spaces from the folder name and the executable file name. after that it ran acceptably on my PC with Ryzen integrated graphics. I actually really liked the way it felt with a mouse and was glad to see WASD worked despite my using the dvorak keyboard layout. would be nice to have native linux and mac support on release, but i suppose it isn't urgent for now. great demo, I look foward to further updates (:
i download it again to check the new controls and at the start is fill wired but when i cep playing it felt good and and even better the the controller its like i am really punching only one thing i suggest u to add a thing that when i load my punch its not coming back from the lean i am sorry if its a bit hard to read English not my good side edit: add a
Hey Ponty, i have been watching your devlogs for a long time. Love them. Thanks for including the keyboard support. Or should i say mouse support, idk. i just wanna say that theres a bug where if i move my mouse to lean, i cant punch while its going to the lean position and when it leans completely it just leans back into the default position. If you could fix that, that would be great. Also theres a problem with the physics on the gloves. what i mean by that is that sometimes the glove leaves the hands only if for a few seconds.Another bug is that sometimes when i presss other buttons it doesnt take the input Yeah thats all i could find. Theres also that stamina problem like you discussed in your latest video. If you read this i wish you the best of luck and finally im a big fan. Thanks.
I was playing this game on keyboard and mouse, controls are good. Whenever i was moving my mouse, i was not able to charge a punch. I dont know that weather its a bug or a feature. But due to this i felt like, game was very slow paced as i can only charge the punch after bending is completed. I think the above is a bug, as we can charge and then bend the character. Also, is there a keyboard key wich snaps the camera to our position, or a key for blocking?
Hey epiK gamers. How are you doing! Ok nice? Anyways the page shows, "required controllers", correct, KINDA. You added mouse and keyboard support. IDK if you are gonna remove it or not. And where easter egg, the itch.io page's tab's title has a pic, that pic is the easter egg? Cause that picture suspiciously looks wrong. Is it you in a costume or something? Ok nvm I didn't play the game yet, until then see the gaaaaaaaaamers laaaaaaaater. Edit: I used the snipping tool and found out I was wrong, sorry for the inconvenience by an idiot like me.
I really liked the movement of the character and the controls. I just wish the camera positioning was a bit better. One suggestion I have is that maybe you can have a blocking feature, so if you successfully block a punch you can gain stamina. It is just an idea and I want to say I really liked the demo.
The game is designed for controller, the mouse and keyboard controls lack blocking sadly. I don't have a controller so I couldn't really try the game as the other people in the video of the reactions.
When I open the game this window opens and the game doesn't start. I don't know what could be causing the problem, but I remember trying to open the game version 0.16 and happened the same.
It may be because you have a 32-bit computer, in the video when Pontypants tried to export the game to 32-bit, it was an error so he exported the game to 64-bit only.
i couldnt play the demo because i dont have a controller but now it is not too bad with mouse and keyboard but it does need a bit of tweeking as pontypants said in the video but now it is pretty good.BTW did anyone find the easter egg because i cant
Hi everybody (and specially Pontypants, if you are actually reading this). I found 1 bug with the particles system.
If you charge your left hand, the red tiny particles appear at the right hand (instead of the left), and if instead of kick, you cancell the attack (by blocking) the particle system of the right hand won't stop.
I really like it. Feels fluid and fun, I like the idea of being able to block with one arm while trying to jab with the other and the punch sound effects sound really satisfying. The only thing I wanna do that the game seems to fight me on is to do combos. Most of the video I'm trying to do a quick 3-hit combo and stamina just does not like that. Sometimes I can't even seem to do 2. It might just be me, I'm sure if I get more accustomed to the controls I'll get it, but when the game is called Punch A Bunch I find it weird that you're mostly timing a few punches and not able to try and quickly throw off your opponent with a few quick hits. Now, I'm not saying to let the player spam, but maybe ease up just a tad on the stamina to allow for a few fluid hits and maybe make the player stiffen a bit upon contact so it's easier to line up a second punch? Otherwise, you're still kinda just flailing to do a combo which feels un-wieldy. Just an idea. Also, I think you have it set to default aim for the head but I seem to wiff more than I'd like because I'm brought up to a smaller target rather than the big target that is the torso. I could be wrong and just plain bad so, make of it what you will. Can't wait to see where this goes
I would recommend that you add keyboard/mice input scheme since many people(including me ) do not have controllers which work. I have been loving your progress and would be happy if you K/M support
It works great but my controllers are kinda broken. So if you could add K/M support that would be awesome. An idea is that you could have the mouse position be the leaning direction of the player and the mouse click buttons be the punching buttons with wasd to move.

the AI is not punching back it's way too easy :( :(
Its not supposed to, its to get used to the controls
It's not an AI, it's a dummy. It's like in Among Us where in Freeplay mode the dummies just sit there doing nothing rather than do tasks
its not letting me use controller
@brando2654 you need to plug it in to your computer
why would i be expecting it to work if i never plugged it i
you need to press tab and it will switch from keyboard to controller
What if he DID, huh? What if he plugged in the controller before playing? Think before you speak next time.

Good game so far. Do you plan to add different types of punches and blocking

How do I play with an iOS?
You can't play on iOS, for now, Pontypants said he later was gonna export it to Mac. You just need to wait a bit.
ok. thanks for the reply
you're welcome :)
Hi there! I'm a big fan from Brazil and loved the mouse and keyboard control, but what is the input for blocking?
The game is designed for controller, the mouse and keyboard controls lack blocking sadly. I don't have a controller so I couldn't really try the game as the other people in the video of the reactions.
nice
muh
It may be because you have a 32-bit computer, in the video when Pontypants tried to export the game to 32-bit, it was an error so he exported the game to 64-bit only.
No, it is not. I searched and may there be a problem with UE4
The new keyboard controls fell pretty good!
i couldnt play the demo because i dont have a controller but now it is not too bad with mouse and keyboard but it does need a bit of tweeking as pontypants said in the video but now it is pretty good.BTW did anyone find the easter egg because i cant

The video itself:
I'm using windows 10 pro 64 bits, maybe is a version problem, idk. Could be useful :D
is it supporting ps3 controller?
dont think so
Keyboard controls pls
i need this for mac now

Upon further testing, I was in fact bad. It's actually kinda satisfying to do the 3 hit combo this way. My points may be moot
I would recommend that you add keyboard/mice input scheme since many people(including me ) do not have controllers which work. I have been loving your progress and would be happy if you K/M support

I love it keep the good work man!
Here is my Review about it =)
Punch A Bunch test
hey, i think you should add keyboard/mouse controls so your audience is much bigger. and you should add this game to xbox and ps4 later o
