I really like the visual style. It's a very short experience but enjoyable none the less. I'd be interested to see what else you could do with the idea.
Nice game, very aesthetically pleasing. Are the labyrinths randomly generated?
No, unfortunately they don't, little time as always.
this game really gets me going A+
Great job and impressive use of A* ! Even in spite the gameplay loop can be very short (only a few seconds), the intensity is there ! It could use a few "upgrades" to make the game act more threatening (for example having other mobs blocking you, water tiles that slow you down, ...), but overall a very solid entry, thank you !
Thanks! Though I, the person behind navigation, did not use A* in a strict sense, because had no time to research and implement that. it is basically the choice of first path that reaches the target, with a hack choosing first the movement that more closely goes to the target. There is a small bug that happens in the central room because of that.
Neat little game and congratulations for the visuals !
I love the visuals, and would love to see the mechanics expanded in a full game. Good job!
Fantastic! We also went with the man vs myth angle, isn't it just perfect for this theme? I absolutely 💖 the music for this one, and the 1 bit style works really really well.
Thank you! Love the aesthetic for your game as well!!
