I ended up mostly using the primary sword for killing the enemies, since the enemies were usually not visible until they are basically on top of me--making the projectile weapons difficult to use. BUT, beyond that I must say the overall difficulty is quite good. I made it through with one life left on my first try, and although getting one-shotted was frustrating at first, the fact that progress is saved helped a ton. As someone who also went with the random weapons approach, it was fun to try out all the options, and I really like the cool down icon in the top left--makes it very clear when I can/cannot attack.
Thanks for your kind feedback, glad you enjoyed the game!
Interesting game with a pleasing art-style
Thanks!
Found it a bit too hard, but the art is great!
We were originally intending for it to be a bit tricky but think we might have overdone it a bit, thanks for the feedback!
Enjoyable to play and great character design. With a little more time, I can see this guy being iconic.
Glad to hear you liked it, we’re hoping to work on this in the future too!
The game is quite beautiful, the character is not very nice to control though, it slides a little too much, the theme of the dice would have been more pushed, even if the idea of having them as projectiles is rather good. and the game also crashes when you die is quite a shame

Thanks for the feedback! We also would have liked to tweak the character movement a bit more, but time was running out, we’ll definitely be working on that in the future.
Very cute art, just needs a little bit of tightening for the character control, it felt a bit slippery at times.
Thanks for the feedback. Agreed that the character can be a tad difficult to control, something to work on for the future!
Really like the presentation, my only problem is the keyboard layout was really uncomfortable for my hands. I really wish W or Up could have been used to jump instead of space bar.
Thanks for playing! Point taken about the keyboard layout. W or up to jump makes sense, a small oversight on our part
I think the major point here is really the art nice job! had some troubles jumping over some bats but overall very cute character
Thanks for the feedback! Really enjoyed your entry too.
