The character sprites and music in this game are really nice. The game is fun to play, its just a bit frustrating to keep getting stuck at the tight places, unable to move back the way I need to go. But all in all its a really nice game, I'm curious what you're going to do with it after the jam!
Great idea and the implementation feels great too! Of course the Levels could be prettier but the music is already a pretty awesome fit. There is one specific moment tho, where the flow is kind of broken. Getting stuck in tight spaces is a little frustrating. Would be cool if in some later iteration you can flow through the levels like in a "Getting over it" Speedrun. It has great potential!
This game gave me flashbacks of Getting over it! Nice entry. I would personally prefer if I were able to detach some of the enemies to get into some close spaces.
This is a really cool concept, and great visuals. My one recommendation is that you make navigation a bit snappier -- I think the game would feel great if there wasn't a slow build up every time the knight tries to carry itself with the lance.
Still, this is a job well done. Great submission to the game jam!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who used a knight with the red feather on top of his helmet!
The visuals can get a little more love, but otherwise it's a good game
Nice game. Kind of reminds me of Deepest Sword but with that nice mix-up of adding to the length of the sword as you play the level. Fun idea!
The game mechanics were pretty good polished and the name is awesome!
Pretty cool concept! It's also fun to play. It just needs some visual polishing. Also, i got stuck once because when the hedgehog(i'll assume they are hedgehog) merge with the lance, the tip of the lance was facing the platform, so when the hedgehog merge with the lance, it was below the platform and i got stuck.
That was some fun game. At start I was not sure about the concept. But whole idea, smooth mechanic and a great music made me play for a while. Thanks for such a interesting game. Good Job
I thought I'm going to play something like Getting Over It. Glad I didn't!
Love the concept and the level design. There's a lot you can expand from the idea. Good job!
Really cool concept, I really enjoy physics based movement games such as this one. Got stuck a few times, but I guess that is part of the challenge to avoid.
The knight artwork in particular is really awesome!
