Ranked from 211 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
In this game your character throws potions that have random effects like duplicating an enemy or making it bigger and as the level progresses your character gets scared and throws potions more frequently so the level becomes very chaotic.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all the code was made by us, and all the assets were made from scratch, the only piece of art that we didn't make was the main menu music, that came from a bundle we bought.

I really liked the graphics but as others have said the controls were a bit odd.

The game’s graphic is very good! I think it’s better to add a health bar above the knights. Overall, it’s a good game.

Developer

That's a very good suggestion actually never thought of that haha, thanks for playing and taking the time to give feedback, we really appreciate it <3

Great visual style for this game!  The controls weren't my favorite though, usually spacebar is used for jump instead of the W key so that would make things a little smoother.  And man those potions were chaotic haha.  No idea why the character kept throwing them but it would be nice if bread popped up more often to chill him out.

Best of luck in the jam!  Would appreciate if you checked out our game too.

Developer

Yeah jump should have been with space, but hope you still enjoyed it, and thanks for playing <3 I'll check your game :D

I think i reached 4 levels, quite an interesting concept. Controls could have been smoother. The potions were quite cool, sometimes I felt I didnt get enough bread to stop panic. Good work

The game looks very good and the sound is great too. I can understand where some of the commenters are coming from that the controls feel a little off, but I think they're fine, especially for a game jam game.

Exploring the effects of the various potions is definitely fun (and chaotic, too, which is obviously good). With more enemy variety and a little more varied level design, I could definitely see this being a very enjoyable game!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words <3 we really appreciate it :D

Its a bit.... chunky? Having the jump on W makes moving around harder, and the knife hardly ever works. Sound design is good, and graphics look great. Just needs some polish. Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you for playing and giving feedback, we'll keep it in mind <3

No need to panic, the potions are panicking to potion your panic!

This game could really use some polish but other tahn that...

One problem would be that the potions aren't chaotic enough... I never really felt in danger altough that is probably just me.

I will most certanly play this again.

Developer

Love what you did there haha, thanks for playing the game and giving feedback <3

I think the potion throwing needed to start at a slower pace. I really liked the concept but felt the gameplay needed to be a bit more forgiving at the start and then get faster once the player has mastered the controls. I also really liked the music.

i like the visuals a lot :)
the gameplay is fun but counterintuitive, since fighting the enemies once your just throw up potions is punished by having to fight even more enemies. I think decreasing the timer just a little would balance it enough such that fighting enemies with the small sword is still viable without making it too easy. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, we'll keep it in mind also thanks for playing the game, glad you liked it :D

I did enjoy this quite a bit.

I do have to say that I did just start treating the knights like obstacles once I figured out that there wasn't a super good reason to actually kill them though. Made my run of this game go very quick.

Great job though. It was really well done.
