Very addictive game! My favourite build so far was poison with the katana and poisoned enemies take 4x damage. Great job!

Developer

thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

This is absolutely the most addictive game of all time. Managed to get 1600 dps with plus 2 attack, and would eliminate all enemies within 10 seconds -- they just disappear like air. Later on when the end of level I cannot move freely with the arrows -- maybe a bug. With more polish on animation, sound, and such, this could be an amazing game. Awesome job! Please check out mine as well!

Wow what a build! 

Yes this is definitely a bug. But to make you feel better, with this build and without the bug, you could never have died, so be glad this bug occured so you could rate other games 😂

I'm really happy you enjoyed it so much and I will check your game as well!

Albeit visually quite simple, this was a fun experience indeed!
the Idea stellar, so kudos on the creativity!
the execution is quite good too, the gameplay loop is fun, while needs a bit more balance, or perhaps I just did not understand how to play, I appreciate the UI too, the game only lacks a bit more polish and feedback, more effects and general visual upgrades would really elevate the  playing experience,
but again the jam has really hard time constraints, so it is actually respectable that you managed to realize such an Idea in a short timeframe!

overall a solid entry indeed, Lacks a bit more polish but full of potential, I enjoyed it, excellent work indeed!

Developer

thank you very much for this motivating comment.

The main issue is indeed balancing, but this requires lots of time and testing, and I prioritized content over balance. But, playing it, i'm starting to have a pretty good idea of what could be done to fix this.

I'm glad you could enjoy the basic UI and visuals (it's not my speciality 😅)

Fun little game. Could see this turn into a full game, good job!

Developer

thank you very much!

I'm happy you enjoyed my humble little game

Gameplay is fun, could use some work on UI, sound and the T posing characters :)

Developer (2 edits)

Yeah for sure! Artistically, I made the bare minimum to make a playable build, I really am only a technical designer 😂

Thank you for playing it, I'm glad you enjoyed the gameplay!

The game looked very good and at firts I didnt knew what to do but then it becomes fun to play. You should add anims if you want to keep going with the game. But it was a nice game. I also made a princess game if you want to check it out hahha.

Developer

Aha I'll check it out! I'm glad you enjoyed The Princess!

For the anims, I used asset bank and the characters did not have animations :( 

I tried to make some, but I quickly realised that I would not have time.

Submitted(+1)

48 hours is a really small amount of time to make the anims but the game looked good even without them so dw about it. the game has potential.

this is a cute game, i'm just a little confused as to what to do the the upgrades and how to keep my health from lowering. then again i'm dyslexic and probably missed where it said in the tutorial. the game is fun though! well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I agree that the tutorial could be clearer, and the UI is to be reworked. 

I'm glad you appreciated it nonetheless!
