Super fun. Quick switching my size with the bow is a blast.

I would love to see health bars for the bosses though.

Developer

Haha yeah - that was going to be the next thing I added, but I ran out of time! Glad you enjoyed the game, though :D

I love the atmospher and the polish. Could be a skill issue but it's kind of hard.

Developer(+1)

Yes, it's definitely tricky! Remember your dashes, remember your scaling, and remember not to take on the boss straight away. You'll get the hang of it :D

That music is an earworm. Happy to listen to it as I fight hard to get to the boss of floor 4. I also  like how the "o" in tower keeps changing as well. Nice touch. Great job!

Developer(+1)

I think you're the first person who noticed that :) Glad you enjoyed the game!

Your game is fun and hard.  I loved the art aesthetic. Good tutorial to ease me into the game.

Some nit pics. The skeleton archers can shoot you almost instantly when you enter some rooms. The orb that shoots then disappears is hard to chase down, maybe not let the orb disappear as fast as it currently does. The dagger felt much better than the sword and bow. I wish the respawn was faster and there is more ways to get health back. (I only wrote so much because I really enjoyed it!)

Developer

Good tips about the skeletons and orbs. I'm glad you enjoyed the game, as well! If I ever make an updated version I'll use your advice. Thank you so much :D

I like your cartoony art style. The gameplay perspective is really cool (reminds me of binding of isaac). I wasn't able to get the bow weapon to work, so I switched to the sword which was fun to play with. The use of changing your size in order to unlock/lock different stats/abilities was a really cool way to integrate the theme into your game :)

Developer

Thank you! This was my first time trying out this art style and I'm super happy with it. Glad you enjoyed :)

Great sound design, I like the simple art style too :D

Developer

Thank you! I'm very happy with my art as I haven't tried this style before.

Simple premise but executed very well with great level design!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I tried to work some of the rooms into the size changing mechanic as well. Some gaps you can only fit through when you're small.
