I REALLY LIKE ARTSTYLE AND COMBAT SYSTEM OF THIS GAME

Developer

I REALLY APPRECIATE KIND AND FULLY CAPITALISED COMMENT

THANK YOU FOR PLAYING MY GAME

I love the art style, I'm a sucker for pixel art. The sound effects are a bit repetitive and there is a bug where if you die, you can't move when you respawn. Overall, I think the game was fine. Would probs play again.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah, sound was one of the last things I ended up doing and I realised that was a huge mistake as it contributes a lot to the game feel.

I realised that the respawn bug probably counts as a game-breaking bug under the rules, so I've uploaded a new build with a fix (or what I hope is a fix at least).

This game is epic! I guess it's perfect under all point of view!

I liked the game but there were a few things I didn't like.  

Game design:

Like fighting hordes is really difficult and you just  end up trading damage with them. 

Combat against one enemy is really simple because you can just spam attack. 

I would have liked to see more enemy variety like ranged enemy. 

The screen size could have been bigger too because sometimes the enemies would just appear and attack you before you can react. 

Bugs:

Game need to be restart when you die.

Other:

On the itch page it doesn't say you need to use e to go through doors.

Developer

Thanks for the constructive criticism - I'm planning to add some more polish to the game once the voting period is over so I'll definitely take your comments into account.

I was quite sure that the game restarted automatically once you died (basically just sends you back to the main hall). Where did you end up dying and what happened on the screen when you did? Were you just stuck forever?

Thanks for playing!

I died after the first locked door. it teleported me to the start but disabled the movement.

Developer

Ok, I think I found the problem but will have to fix it after the jam is over. Thanks for letting me know.
