Lovely Game. Full releasable I would say felt really good while platforming
combat can be polished a bit.
But damn oh damn the visual!!!!! extraodrinary.
p.s. i dunno if a bug or a feature but on god boss mode I spawned in with no gun :( can't fight that demon, let me know what to do here I want to play through the whole game
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed the visuals so much!!! I aggree im not the best when it comes to making the playercontroller feel 100% right but I hope I will learn in that regard!
You can Press Q or roll the scroll wheel to switch between the gun and the hammer! That the player doesnt spawn with the gun equiped in the beginning of the boss is a dumb oversight that I should probably fix in a later update!
It's amazing! The perfect amount of being anxious when making the big jump, haha! Pure fun of slamming the hammer and shooting with the gun, great game.
Oh. Thank you. I figured it out but did not come back to delete my comment. Thank you for the help, I am new here and to the world of game development.
I had to make an account just to say this, I WANT A FULL GAME.
This game seriously was so so fun and its art-style is so unique and retro it just makes me wanting more, the colors and the character design, the boss-fights and the first person mode, everything was so perfect I just wish it was an actual game.
I really like the way the characters look, the platforming gives me a nostalgic vibe and the overall feel of it makes it feel like I'm playing a remaster of an old childhood game.
If there was a Kickstarter or a GoFundMe I would absolutely pay for something like this!
This is just way too kind!! Thank you so much for the compliments and enjoying Devil Catcher to such a huge amount, that makes me so happy!!
I think I'm done with devil catcher for now. After I published the Game Jam version I still had some ideas I wanted to create, and with version 2.0 I basically added everything I wanted.
Right now I'm feeling a bit burned out with jump and run games and I'm working on a completely different project BUT It was a lot of fun creating this game and I would love to make a continuation or a similar game in the future!!
this game took me by surprise. had so much. art style was awesome. music was awesome. please tell me the name of the song from the second level? its soooooo nice. great game man fr
Thank you so so much!! Really enjoyed your let's play and especially your freestyles!!! The song in the second level is called "Thirds by Jamie Bathgate" and I got it from Artlist but you can also find the song on Spotify
Devil Catcher is one of the most creative, fun, and stylish indie games on itch.io right now. The color scheme immediately draws you into the game, and the platformer mechanics are relatively easy to get used to. It was a challenge to beat, but not impossible; it was the perfect middle. I'm excited to play more content made by Tenkaiyo.
Saw Devil Catcher had an update and had to check it out. Overall, it feels like a fair bit of work has been done. Minor changes the stage one's layout, yeah? Stage two was a mallet to the face with new platform mechanics and pursuit enemies, but a decent challenge.
Thank you so much!!! I changed a few things in the first level. I like your idea that the Health Upgrade stays for the Bossfight after a level so I might actually implement that!!
No, it's fine!! I made it a bit confusing. You have to unlock the first person skin by playing through the second level, and then you have to select it under Extras in the Main Menu.
I really loved the graphical style and design, though I felt the gamefeel was off, since the jump felt floaty and the combat was not very responsive. Ultimately though, this game is great, especially for a gamejam game.
it works but once the game is launched, I have a black screen for 20 seconds and then it would load into the Main Menu. Trough the entire game I had no sound or music even when I maxed out the slide bar in Settings. That's all of issues I had.
PS.
did you only need to click on a checkbox to make the entire game into a .x86 extension?
Im going too look into those issues thank you so much for letting me know,
also can I message you again if I update the linux version so you can check if those 2 issues are gone? If not that would also be compleatly fine!
I basically had to click a checkbox to create the linux version but because I cant playtest mac or linux versions and check if everything works correctly I rarely create them.
Apparently, the Linux version works fine with Ubuntu 20.04 but I'm not an expert on anything Linux-related so I'm not even sure if that helps in any shape or form.
Thank you so much for the compliments!!! I'm really glad you enjoyed it that much!! Currently, I would say I'm finished with Devil Catcher but I would like to revisit it sometime in the future!
This was very adorable! I wasn't sure how I'd do with platforming on my keyboard at first, but it was incredibly smooth. The music was quite a bop to listen to, and the art was super cute. I didn't expect upgrades at all, so they really mixed things up as well! Props to the developers!
Thank you so much for enjoying my game! I really enjoyed your Let's Play and I'm Glad you played through the whole game! The game doesn't have Controller Support because Its a whole can of worms that I never touched
So basically the angel acted Unholy in Heaven, therefore, she was banished by God to the space in between Heaven and hell. This was to see if she will change her behavior. But instead she is only interested in taking revenge and travels out of Limbo. There she meets her Equal, the devil boss, who is the protector of the entrance into Heaven. They fight and the Angel defeats the Devil. She travels to the throne of God and Defeats him too, absorbing a bit of his power and becoming the new Ruler of Heaven. Hope that explanation was mildly interesting!
I finally got my hands on version 2.2 and my friend, how the game has evolved a lot. Everything here is sensational. I wish this game became a huge game with potential. Congratulations, man.
This was so much fun! The character designs and environment are amazing! I love the platforming segments, although the character sliding when landing on a platform caught me a bit off guard. The boss fights were excellent; not too easy but not too challenging! I loved the mechanic of using the gun to hit targets to move platforms, especially the part where you need to step on the platform to make the target visible. I'd love to see a fully fleshed out version of this, great work!
Thank you so so much for all the compliments!!! Your comment is really encouraging and I don't really know how to respond other than to say thank you!!! I might make a similar game in the future or a sequel or something but I think this is it for this game!
No problem at all, really hoping your work gets more recognition since it definitely deserves it! Looking forward to what you end up making in the future! :)
Thank you so much! I'm currently trying to figure out how to implement controller support for my new project, If I figure it out I will update this game with it but I can't guarantee anything.
Hey! nice 2.0 update. Playing through it felt really refreshing and fun. The only problems I encountered were how the bosses didn't have any HP bar so it felt like I were hitting them forever LOL. But great job, keep making stuff it's all very entertaining.
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it! I thought about giving the bosses health bars and if it would even be necessary but I might actually add some!

smells like dreamcast
I agree, the cover looks like the original Dreamcast game cover designs.
yea. the ones that looked like they were from 2008 or something.
The game's models and the cover where both made in the style of Dreamcast games!
thought so
Eae rapaziada, fiz um video zueiro jogando Devil Catcher, quem puder dar um passada lá:
AGRADEÇO!Cute Artstyle.
Thanks!
This game is super cute lol
Thank you!

Ohhhhh! maybe the game instructed about this switching weapon mechanic but I missed it. now back to playing I go
It's amazing! The perfect amount of being anxious when making the big jump, haha! Pure fun of slamming the hammer and shooting with the gun, great game.
Thank you so much for the high praise and the nice review!!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Looking forward to seeing more from this developer! This game, while short, was an absolute blast and I would love to see an expanded version!
Thank you so much! I aggree the combat could use a bit of work.
Hope you enjoy my next project as well!!!
Why is it expecting me to pay when it is labeled as free
you need to go to the "no thank you just take me to the dowload" button below
Oh. Thank you. I figured it out but did not come back to delete my comment. Thank you for the help, I am new here and to the world of game development.
no problem!
Oh thank you. I figured it out but I did not come back to delete my comment. Thank you for your help. I am new her

The song in the second level is called "Thirds by Jamie Bathgate" and I got it from Artlist but you can also find the song on Spotify
Aw man thanks again, can’t wait to see more games from you, great job
So white and fresh. No blood, dark places, no killing, even enemies. Rare game!
Thank you!!!
My congrats, college! Great work! Looks really pleasant. Like it!

Thank you for making such a fun game! I'm excited to try your other games, and when I do, I'll post them on your itch.io page. (:
Thank you!! Thats so nice to hear!!
aaa i love this game!! 10/10 im not even like 30 mins into the game and ive already fallen inlove ^
Thank you so so much for the compliments!! I hope you enjoyed the rest of the game too!!!
can you make this for MacOS
I made a Mac version but just like the Linux version I'm unable to playtest that version, so if any Bugs or something comes up please let me know!!
Saw Devil Catcher had an update and had to check it out. Overall, it feels like a fair bit of work has been done. Minor changes the stage one's layout, yeah? Stage two was a mallet to the face with new platform mechanics and pursuit enemies, but a decent challenge.
Good job, dev. Keep at it.Thank you so much!!! I changed a few things in the first level. I like your idea that the Health Upgrade stays for the Bossfight after a level so I might actually implement that!!
Glad you liked the idea!
How do you Go First-Person? Sorry I'm bad at controls-
No, it's fine!! I made it a bit confusing. You have to unlock the first person skin by playing through the second level, and then you have to select it under Extras in the Main Menu.
Thank you very much- I just beat the second level- For me Devil boss was so hard-
A lot of people struggle with that boss, maybe I made it a bit too hard. Hope you have fun with the skin!!!
I really loved the graphical style and design, though I felt the gamefeel was off, since the jump felt floaty and the combat was not very responsive. Ultimately though, this game is great, especially for a gamejam game.
I agree, Im not the best when it comes to making the gameplay side of a game feel 100% right. Thank you so much for still enjoying it!!
this game seems like it should be ported to dreamcast
Dreamcast games were a big inspiration especially when it came to the look of the game!!
pls release it for linux.
I can Try but I cannot guarantee that everything will work!
Uploaded A Linux version but I don't know if it will work, If you notice anything weird pls let me know!
it works but once the game is launched, I have a black screen for 20 seconds and then it would load into the Main Menu. Trough the entire game I had no sound or music even when I maxed out the slide bar in Settings. That's all of issues I had.
PS.
did you only need to click on a checkbox to make the entire game into a .x86 extension?
thanks again for the linux port!
Im going too look into those issues thank you so much for letting me know,
also can I message you again if I update the linux version so you can check if those 2 issues are gone? If not that would also be compleatly fine!
I basically had to click a checkbox to create the linux version but because I cant playtest mac or linux versions and check if everything works correctly I rarely create them.
of course you can! I would be glad to give you further feedback to make it a seamless port.
Thank you so much!!
Apparently, the Linux version works fine with Ubuntu 20.04 but I'm not an expert on anything Linux-related so I'm not even sure if that helps in any shape or form.
This game is AWESOME. 10/10
Hope it have another updates in the future, probably the most fun and creative 3D platformer I've ever played \(>_<)/
Thank you so much for the compliments!!! I'm really glad you enjoyed it that much!! Currently, I would say I'm finished with Devil Catcher but I would like to revisit it sometime in the future!
Cool game :3
Thank you!!!
God this game is so good but it could be better... Anyway, it's fine!
Do you mean the game is fine or that it's not as good as it could be is fine? and what exactly do you think needs improvement?
This was very adorable! I wasn't sure how I'd do with platforming on my keyboard at first, but it was incredibly smooth. The music was quite a bop to listen to, and the art was super cute. I didn't expect upgrades at all, so they really mixed things up as well! Props to the developers!
Thank you so much for enjoying my game! I really enjoyed your Let's Play and I'm Glad you played through the whole game! The game doesn't have Controller Support because Its a whole can of worms that I never touched
I couldn't even imagine the work that goes into it, so I can definitely believe it haha. Was a very fantastic ride regardless!
story. now.
Do you want to know the story of the game?
yes
So basically the angel acted Unholy in Heaven, therefore, she was banished by God to the space in between Heaven and hell. This was to see if she will change her behavior. But instead she is only interested in taking revenge and travels out of Limbo. There she meets her Equal, the devil boss, who is the protector of the entrance into Heaven. They fight and the Angel defeats the Devil. She travels to the throne of God and Defeats him too, absorbing a bit of his power and becoming the new Ruler of Heaven.
Hope that explanation was mildly interesting!
I feel like this game is trying to please beat em up fans while also pleasing platformer fans
so it just dumbs down both gameplay styles
you have no real attacks that require combinations to perform yet the enemies are still just as mushy as in a beat em up
the platforming is mindless and souless with basically nothing and the minimum devils to beat is a weird and bad idea making speedrunning tedious
I finally got my hands on version 2.2 and my friend, how the game has evolved a lot. Everything here is sensational. I wish this game became a huge game with potential. Congratulations, man.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you came back to play version 2.2!! Thank you for the compliments and the encouragement!
This was so much fun! The character designs and environment are amazing! I love the platforming segments, although the character sliding when landing on a platform caught me a bit off guard.

Fun game here's a speedrun
Thats so awesome!! I love it!!
me gusta
Nice!!!
was playing the god boss but i couldnt use my gun?? like it just kept the lil hammer. :(
You can switch between the hammer and gun by pressing Q or using the scroll wheel! sorry for the confusion
it worked ty! very fun game pls make more content :)
Thank you so much!!! glad you enjoyed it!
I love this game! I really like the art style. It would be nice if you add controller support.
Thank you so much! I'm currently trying to figure out how to implement controller support for my new project, If I figure it out I will update this game with it but I can't guarantee anything.
Cute, love the aesthetic! Wish the main character had more moves though. 8/10!
Thank you!!!
I did a run of Version 2.0
Love the improvements and love the music
Hey! nice 2.0 update. Playing through it felt really refreshing and fun. The only problems I encountered were how the bosses didn't have any HP bar so it felt like I were hitting them forever LOL. But great job, keep making stuff it's all very entertaining.
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it! I thought about giving the bosses health bars and if it would even be necessary but I might actually add some!
Awesome game. I really loved the double jump upgrade. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!
Nice!
