I really like your interpretation of the theme, nice game!
thank you! I think the theme was deceptively tricky and I look forward to seeing what everyone else came up with :)
This was so much fun!!! I loved the progressing difficulty, and how easy it was to navigate around the rooms and the sword! The amount of enemies makes your choices really count, making the times where the sword started powering up in the middle of waves of them all the more satisfying. You should be super proud of this game, it's definitely one of my favorites! Simple, well executed fun!
thanks for playing!! It's was a blast to build too :)
thats awesome!! thank you for making something so flipping fun.
Loved it! The art is pleasant and the sword activation sound is very satisfying.
I always add sound near the end of the building process and regret not adding it sooner, it really completes the game feel. Glad you liked it and thanks for playing!
Great game! I loved pretty much everything about it. If I was being picky, I would say that the text above the sword that says 'space to activate' or whatever should always be straight up, instead of at the angle of the sword. If you are using Unity, you can override the parent's rotation in LateUpdate()
That was on the list to fix but I didn't get to it in time. I used Godot but thanks for the tip - and thanks for playing!
:) I enjoyed it very much
Nice game - I had good fun with it. Adding another mechanic would have been a nice-to-have but of course I understand there are time constraints and adding mechanics can be time consuming :)
Overall a good concept with plenty of ways to expand on the core gameplay loop! Well done
thanks for playing! Yes, I had a couple "nice to have" mechanics on my list that I cut in favor of big fixing and polish :)
Fun concept and very nice art style! :)
thanks for playing!
Fun idea! :) One thing though it looks like the music only plays from one headphone, it might be something to fix after voting ends.
Somehow I didn't notice this while I was building it - thanks for letting me know and thank you for playing!
