Really fun idea.

Fun one weapon game. Mabe more levels with walls where you could bounce the axe off would make it more interesting though.

Submitted

Super fun! Very simple but hard to master. All 5's from me.

Pretty, fun! I liked how the returning mechanic was hidden for the player to find out.

Once I figured out how to use that axe effectively I had a blast. Almost got to 100. I liked this mechanic. I'd like to see it grow.

If you have a chance to give my game a play I'd appreciate it:

That was really fun, managed to get a score of 199 before I got trapped in a corner. 

Loved to try get as many as possible in one throw summoning the axe back while running around the screen was a lot of fun :P

Oh im glad you liked it. Looks like youve played longer than me XD

What can I say, I was enjoying it. 

Just FYI when you are that high there is a VERY large group spawned in the middle by that point. 

Also I forgot to mention you might want to increase the attack rate of them somewhat I found myself very rarely having any bones thrown at me. Don't increase too much just a tad to increase the difficultly but not take the fun away.

Gotta rebalance things a bit after jam. Thanks for feedback :)

Very fun and original game! I love this and I totally think it would make an amazing mobile game, great great job, this game is brilliant! Perhaps the background should change colour the higher your combo score is!
Congrats for creating this masterpiece within 48 hours!

If you haven't yet, I would really appreciate it if you check out our game too!

This was really enjoyable. Bouncing the axe and getting combos felt great.

I really like this game. This is a good example that a simple idea can be a fun game. Axe works so great and return perfectly. A ranking to see your best score would be great!

Submitted

Super fun! Meaty feedback, the Axe recall was a good decision, great work.

I like the effects of killing a skeleton. It's a nice little game :D

I also made a little video compilation of games from the game jam and you're in it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mJWndlAIwk
