Nice idea, top down adventure turn stealth. Very cool with great art!

Great job, art is amazing and the gameplay is fun.  I did have some trouble with the controls, as they didn't feel very smooth.  Other than that I don't really have any complaints, nice work :)

Nice graphics and fun take on the theme!
The game feels a little too hard at times (those players are fast), but otherwise solid entry!

I love the way this one looks, very nice art style!

this is a really fun concept and game! the art was super well done and reminded me of the og legend of zelda (which i'm assuming was your inspiration). i liked exploring the dungeon but i felt that the movement was a little finnicky with not being able to move diagonal as i got stuck in a lot of corners trying to escape and couldn't get out. overall, though, a really good game for 48 hours and i think there's a lot of potential to such a stealth-exploration game.

Wonderful submission! The presentation is top notch, love the whole retro area vibe. This could be developed into a game. I wanted Ruby to have some more escape options, and maybe more feedback from the heros when they detect her, but I like where it was going. Difficult but not impossible, start slow and ramp up the challenges, and you've got yourself a full game :D

I like the art and game concept! Though I found that the Heroes kept chasing me and getting themselves stuck on objects.

Love the visuals, the little ruby's animations are simple but effective! My biggest suggestions would be the spend some time really getting the player movement feeling good. Otherwise the gameplay felt satisfying and fun.

You're the first team I've seen with dedicated "tea-maker." I'll have to get a tea-maker for my team too next year :)

A good idea. It is convenient to play, but there are small bugs when encountering bots.

Enjoyable game, didn't end up finding the way out but it was a fun challenge.

love the idea. the hit boxes / controlls could be a bit more forgiving and some hints at where the exit is.

Interesting little stealth game. I wish the dungeon rooms were a little bit more complex. Beautiful art style.

This is so neat! The little fairy is adorable, and I thought the difficulty felt pretty good, and I like the concept. Movement felt a little tricky especially without diagonal movement but still very fun for 48 hours!!
