Nice and simple, pretty cool!
By the way, never say the game is boring! You should always believe in yourself!

It's really cool that you were able to come up with a myth that fits the theme perfectly. Pretty cool concept and fun visuals, well done :^)

InfectibleI think the concept is interesting -- I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that increasing the weapon's size also reduced its speed, and I think that's a fun gimmick for a game.
However, I do have a number of critiques:
- Some kind of title screen or pause mechanic would add more to the game than you'd think -- it would allow the game to remain open rather than crash on every death.
- For health, displaying numbers (or, even better, health bars) would provide more design clarity than just making enemies and the player more transparent.
- Enemy hitboxes and sprites don't seem to be synced some of the time, at least based on the hit sounds.
- Most importantly -- don't disparage your own work in the description or the game itself! In my opinion, this is by far the biggest mistake you made. It shows a lack of faith in your own work and sets your audience up to be unengaged with it before they even download.
I appreciate the time you put into this project, and I do think the concept is solid!

Space for GrowthThanks! The hitbox of the enemy is actually ~10-20 pixels larger from their actual sprite. With the player I used a hitbox but the enemy doesn't have one (you can see that in .\_internal\textures) I didn't notice that until the voting period. I will implement your suggestions in the post-jam version of the game!
It’s nothing revolutionary but it’s a neat little game :)
I don’t know if the weapon staying in place is international but i like it as a game mechanic
Good job, especially if it’s your first game, keep improving :)

Hyper TravelFun game, some variety in enemies would be nice since you got so many movement and attack options. I do love spamming space and leaving my weapon to finish the job, dont know if this is intended but its hella fun xD

Build to get scales.It is a fun game where enemies come in waves with increased difficulty. The style and music is also intriguing. Good job!

SlimeBoundGreat game ! Fun and amusing, i would love to see more enemies and more attacks, but overall it's a good game ! Especially that it was made under 48 hours !

SCALDRIS : The Arcane ArchitectHaving grown up in Beijing, this game thematically hit quite close to home. I would perhaps recommend a bit more enemy variety and enemy behaviour variety, but as it stands it's a nice simple little game!

Little Dipper's Big AdventureI like the Idea,
don't know how but it should be possible to make it work maybe increasing enemy and player speeds would help and few more mechanics, like throwing the stick or something
Submitted
SizeToExistThe game was really enjoyable despite being a simple game. I hope you could expand it next time!
Submitted
Astronomical AssemblyCool game! Some more different types of enemies and weapons would be nice, maybe also some different maps. Other than that good job!

ScalabilitySuper cute, simple game. I like the idea that you have to balance your weapon around either being small and fast or large and slow. I also like the idea that you can throw your weapon.
Possible improvements:
Sometimes it's hard to find the enemies. An indicator would be really useful.
The dash is really small right now; maybe increase the distance a bit.
Besides that, I like the idea and would love to see where you are taking it from here. Good job!

What I Imagined When Playing LegosNice job! I think the biggest thing that would’ve helped me was more tutorialization - it was difficult mainly because of the learning curve. After a while I got a little more used to it though and it was a fun time :)
Submitted
Toadally SpacedIt's a nice idea to implement the trade-off between range and attack-speed.
The game is quite difficult though. Maybe it's tied to the control scheme? I was panicking rather quickly, so I kept spamming the space bar and not changing the size of my weapon.
Submitted
A Very Small WorldIts alright, but i didnt really know the controls, a mini tutorial would have been good, i had to spam kyobard for controls. Nice game tho :)
