this is a game in which you fight the evil lava ball. the intro scene telling the story of king amine was a beautiful piece of cinema and brought a tear to my eye.  the gameplay was simple but fun. this is the greatest game about killing lava balls while defending your kingdom while playing as super amine that i have ever played. great entry!!

i got 330, nice simple game. i would've really loved to be able to get upgrades or something in the middle like vampire survivors and other similar games, but i still enjoyed it nonetheless

love the little intro story, very fun, the rotation made me absolutely furious tho lol. How were you guys getting these high scores? Insane, i got 57

Lol this is goofy but kind of fun. The opening animation is fun. Like, it's not ideal that the character doesn't spin in the centre of the model but it's definitely funnier. I think my biggest problem is that the spawn points for the lava balls aren't randomized so the gameplay doesn't really change so much as you play or between runs.

I played your game and i surprised myself trying to find some cool strats to overcome the main issue with your game : it is too difficult. I managed to score 168 which is not bad (i think) but I reached a point where there are more enemies to kill than my weapons can (I every shot was done correctly).
An other point : I am not a fan of the atmosphere and the game lacks of depth : only one enemy and one way to shoot.
It was nonetheless interesting so well done :D

A fun and challenging short game. 

Things I liked

  • I liked the story at the begging, though a bit confusing
  • I like that the game doesn't take itself too serious 

Things that didn't sit well with me

  • it was not clear that I could move, until I saw the highscores in the comments, which made me thing that maybe I'm doing something wrong
  • the enemies are a bit too overwhelming from the get go. I would make their amount increase over time and start with a smaller number
