I like the player character, they remind me of Plaguekight. The art work in in general is great, I love the 1-bit style!

Please, pack the game in a folder first then pack it in a .rar or .zip.

Everything seems smooth and enjoyable, a lot of game jam games feel like a chore to play but there are some that doesn't like this one. You definitely deserve high rating.

Your's game is the only one I've seen with this idea, well done.

I guess only complaint I have is that it's too easy, but better too easy than too hard in a game jam. You should try to balance the difficulty, if it's not working just make it a bit easier than intended.

Thank you so much! We really appreciate that.

Cool idea, the notion of weight creates a nice tension. Having to sacrifice the many cards you get is a good idea too, but you often have to sacrifice all of your cards just to catch up. There should've also been a way to evaluate how well you did at the end of the game. Other than that, nicely done, well presented, a good little game!

I really like the art. The gameplay is simple, but I think you pulled it off very well. I would have liked it to be more obvious that you can't change items when far behind, with a lock symbol or something. Because I got a bit confused the first time with all these items that I couldn't equip.

The art is fantastic, the gameplay strong and intuitive, what more do you need?

Really Cool concept.  Fulfills the criteria of roles reversed and an interesting concept for a larger game!  Animations are charming and artwork is cool.  Overall a fun game and impressive given the time frame. Would be really interested in an expanded version of the game!

Really cool concept but it gets repetitive insanely quickly.

Cool concept and great execution. 

Took a few goes being ruthless with discarding items but eventual helped the ungrateful hero complete their quest.

Let's hear it for the lil guy!


Love the subtle walk animations of Ran-sack <3

Love the retro & monochromatic art-style on this! and I thought the idea of being a loot hoarder that is supplying the hero with items was great :]!

It's very cute! I like the idea
