How does your game fit the theme?
Due to a clerical error, a humble peasant (instead of the brave knight) has been sent on a quest with only a shield that is far too heavy for them. You cannot attack, only defend/deflect and avoid enemies.

Yo. I made a top 10 video of the best games I played from the jam.
(Spoiler alert, this game is in it)
Check it out!

Yeeees! Love this. Pick-up-and-play, no unnecessary confusing mechanic fluff, just simple to understand with plenty of opportunity for depth.
It'd be interesting to see more enemy types, but the game as is is really good. I guess I'm not entirely sure how I healed - since I seemed to, every now and then - but this game is super solid.
Love the art too. Looks very clean and matches well with the UI elements!
Holy moly, this entry is amazing!
The game is extremely polished with beautiful art, spot on ambience music, well placed sound effects and lots of cool animations! The take on the theme is very accurate and the gameplay is really solid with interesting situations and variations that can take place. It really had me thinking and it had me really engaged! I wouldn't have believed that it was made in 48 hours and it totally deserves more comments and ratings. One of the best entries in the jam.
I am left wondering how would this game play if it wasn't turn based and grid based, but this is just me being annoying. The game is perfect the way it is!
Last but not least, the cheese was totally worth it.
This is easily one of my favourite games of the jam. The art style is adorable, the difficulty is challenging but fair, and the way you interpreted the theme was clever.
Really nice idea, and i also like how the shield can be used :)
Super fun, unique idea, great presentation, super cute!
Looks, sounds and feels amazing. Great work!
Awesome visuals and game feel! I think the game could benefit from a little more variety, but overall, I'm a big fan, especially of the directional shield mechanic.
real nice : ) everything feels very considered - beautiful animations and charming 3D models. great work!
really charming game! the art looks so professional and polished I thought it was premade assets. the premise is very fun and the gameplay is unique, great job!
fun and great looking game. well done :)
Definitely a fun take on a dungeon crawler. It was a little frustrating until I realized I could back up into enemies. Overall awesome work!
The game looks incredible! I did find the gameplay a little dull after a bit but it's a cool concept.
This game looks and feels incredible! There's a lot of strategy involved and it's a great twist on the genre. Music is a bop as well!
The 3d models look awesome and the game is a fun puzzle
