KOBOLD SIEGE

With her family kidnapped and eggs stolen, a kobold decides to take on a whole castle, by herself, with only a gun.

------

Kobold Siege is a short run'n'gun metroidvania with a unique style!

It was originally made for the Newgrounds Egg Jam but i didn't end up finishing it on time, so i decided to make it bigger! I think it was really worth it, i really like how it turned out :)

CONTROLS:

WASD or ARROW KEYS to MOVE.

J or Z to FIRE.

K or X to JUMP.

L or C to AIM/INTERACT.

F for FULLSCREEN.

Move the maps with arrow keys or wasd too!

 

This game couldn't have been made with the help of:

theepicosity - Let me use the music!

SashimiFeast, WalkingMicrowave - voices!

Conejo, Juanba, WalkingMicrowave - testing and help!

Freesounds - sounds!

 

Possible issues:
-Music slowly breaking - reloading the page should fix it. Try to get to a new checkpoint to save the game, though! (does not happen on downloadable)
-leaving the page and going back might make the chains all wobbly-like (does not happen on downloadable)
-If you shoot the door and the game implodes, and says something about DirectX3D, update your DirectX3D drivers! Here! https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=
-
If, after loading the game, stuff is all weird, then it actually didn't detect your oldest savefile. This might be a browser problem (not being able to save). I'm sorry if that happens! (does not happen on downloadable, you just can't load the game)
Also:
-There is a REALLY experimental mobile test. I hope it all works ok, it should! It ran too slow for me, but maybe one day it will be ok. Turn your screen before the game loads!

 

If possible, download! You'll have the best experience!

I love this guy

The bat chef was worst than the king himself, lol!

Idk if it happens for just me but whenever I shoot the first door the game crashes and I don't see any other way to progress.

I love character design

on the last boss, if you die right when you parry him, it glitches and instantly wins the fight

(+3)

I loved dis game it was fun it trigged my hollow knight ptsd but i still loved it because kobold :3

same

Bug Report: Chef king's sideways slap attack causes a crash if you are dead when he uses it.

i think most of the bugs are in the last fight.

Incredibly enjoyable experience. It's a lovely change of pace and the combat is a treat. For those struggling, download the game. It's 10 times better than the web version since there's much less delay and overall runs faster. Very balanced experience I found. Love it! <3333

just beated this game and it's very fun to play and very cute

amazing game besides some of the not fun parts(like not having a speed upgrade because green is hecking slow to cross around the map)

I just beat the game and I love this so much. This is probably one of my favorite games on this site

Barely beat the third boss, in the king's room, cant even make it past the bat guy anymore :-(

have you tried shooting diagonally? i saw videos of people struggling against him because of that!

i know but gotta avoid the horizontal flying guys then.

tried parryjumpging him but the avoiding stuff gets tedious too...

(+1)

the game gives me castle crasher vibes

woof. This game is very well designed, but there’s some seriously brutal combat that just feels too unbalanced.

The first two bosses are doable, but the imp and final boss were nuts. A lot of the deaths feel unfair too, because often it won’t let me cancel the shooting animation to jump out of the way fast enough, and I get hit. It requires lightning fast reflexes and you can only get hit 3 times, so it just feels unfair. 

Other thing was the map- I don’t see why you can’t just always have it on you? It discouraged me from trying to find everything, because having a map station was a little tedious

but, really solid game otherwise, it feels good and has good level design. With a few tweaks I’d like it even more!

The game is fun, but I have a small issue.  This may be internet problems on my end, but sometimes the background music will finish playing and won't loop which causes no sound effects like shooting and enemies dying to play.  I'm not sure how the background music is tied with the sound effects, but it happens. 

Even in the beginning of the game, the sound effects don't play when the background music don't start up as soon as I start the game.

Needs level design. And what should I do when coins land on spikes?

Loved the game, the art style and the soundtrack are so good!
I felt like the bosses after the first were a bit too easy, though, you are just so much more powerful than them through all the upgrades you get. Especially the Chef King felt weak due to his slow moves, I beat him on the first try.
The movement felt very good and intuitive, I actually liked not being able to move while shooting.
Overall a 10/10 because I am biased due to my love for kobolds.

I love the game but sometimes it glitches and keeps playing the dialogue, especially in the Kings battle.

(+1)

theres a pit with spikes right before the first tour sig

or the tour sign

(+1)

stay safe kiddos

(+3)

no checkpoint before boss?

yeah its frustrating

(3 edits) (+1)

Lol el juego se ve divertido y es divertido me dan ganas de seguirlo jugando, amé el detalle de la animación cuando el pequeño apunta y cuando dispara, todo se ve excelente espero haya una parte 2 o algo así jaja estaría fenomenal este es el primer juego de itch.io que comento porque creo que se lo merece así que enhorabuena! un gran trabajo si fuera de pago lo compraría (en un futuro donaré algo xd)

Love the game but I really wish it had controller support. Mostly because I suck with keyboards.

Went to backtrack to get the kobold egg in the pig pen. Reloaded a checkpoint save in the cell where all the kobolds are trapped and started getting this error message when the sequence where the imprisoned kobolds begin dialogue as if its the first time I went down there. The dialogue sequence never deactivates between loading saves. Ive gotten this error message every time it tries to load the dialogue sequence.

I think its trying to show me the pickup full of kobolds but the camera is breaking. Just a hunch. 

================================

Besides that. love the game! love bouncing on fools heads using the parry, despite it only doing as much damage as the bullets do, simply not as rewarding outside of doing some clever platforming.  Needs more damage to average enemies to make it more gratifying I think. 

The first boss got pretty tense ( as far as I got before my save softlocked ), especially when she stops doing predictable cycles and starts varying her movement and attack patterns on top of moving faster. Makes a challenge to find a viable window of attack to start blasting. 

Other than that, if the controls could be changed so  I can use W,A,S,D + spacebar and the mouse to shoot, then reaching Q to use a tabasco wouldn't be so hard.

F***ing hard.  Loved it about half way.  I now understand "rage quit".
