Really interesting game! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the GBJam 5 games, if you'd like to take a look :)

Saw the devlog thread with your mockup and wanted to see the finished game, and it turned out really great! My only real complaint is that the combat itself is rather boring. Still, you have a very polished vertical slice, just one level that is really well done, instead of a trying to squeeze in a lot of content and having the quality suffer... I hope one day I'll learn to do that too.
This is great. I thought it was a lot of fun 'kiting' the bad guys haha. Punch in face, run away, punch in face, run away
Nice entry! The writing and artwork is spot on, but the combat felt very shallow: it's basically just "mash z and hope you don't die".
I'm glad I hadn't looked at the screenshots before playing though, it made the reveal a lot funnier!
I almost get killed but yet, survived to the end. I became a panda twice ;-) I'm impressed that this game has been done within a week. A bit annoyed to have to kill people to go through, but this is my motherhood side ;-) I didn't really understand what they have done wrong so I have to kill them. Otherwise, the game is just hard enough for people to want to go further just to check if they will succeed or die before the end. Go on @stateoffgames !
