Fun game! When it starts to get a lot of heads and you get desperate to not die it becomes very intense, good gameplay!

Submitted

This was really funny! The first time it was fun learning how and when to move to avoid the attacks. Then I saw there was a second mode and I liked learning the new timing and platform breaking mechanics. The true ending made me laugh :)

Submitted

well done :) 

the death condition sometimes feels a bit unfair. the blood effect is really cool! :)

Nice boss design!

Hydra high five!

Fun game, liked the second play through with cookies. The instructions and baking page was nice addition. Extra levels would have been awesome, but understand time constraints.

Submitted

Nice interpertation of the theme I loved the different hydras personalities! I loved that there was a new game+ I got the true ending and laughed out loud from how cute it was.

Submitted

Great pick on the theme, Hydra checks all the boxes of deep and surface level of "less is more".

also loved that there are two very different endings :)

Submitted

Heck yeah, got the true ending!

Party time!

The graphics are pretty, the music is very good, the second round surprised me, and the true ending is great! It was very interesting!

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! The true ending was a must have ❤

Really funny, I like the dash mechanic, good job

Developer(+1)

Thank you! And yeah the guy behind the dash mechanic is absolutely chuffed about this comment :)

What a great concept! It was really fun to play as well! Easily telegraphing when a head will attack and can be attacked was a great design choice. The heads were also quite humorous. Just a great solid game :)

Thank you so much! And yeah it was necessary with the uhhhh many heads 😂

Unique concept, with fun gameplay, and really good humor.

Developer

Thank you for for sharing our humor!

Really unique game idea. Wish I had thought about hydras when the jam started. I completed the first playthrough by only cutting off one head and evading the two while the room slowly filled with blood. The second playthrough was also a great addition. A bit odd button selection, but overall a really good game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! And yeah respectable tactic :)

Absolutely love it, very good. I did find the keybinds for jumping and attacking so confusing that I just play on the floor until I suffocate though.

Developer

Thank you and yeah fair enough, we'll keep that in mind for the next game :)

Submitted(+1)

It was fun. But I don't like to see the how to play each I time I start to play. And loading level after introduction is very long

Developer

Thank you for playing, and we'll take that advice for next time! :)

Submitted(+1)

Really funny game! thanks for the cookies!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing!! 🍪

Submitted(+1)

The game is awesome!

Only critique is that the controls are a bit odd, in the sense that the key bindings feel a bit unintuitive, but I guess this is highly opinionated.

Thank you!

Developer

Thank you!! And yeah that's a valid opinion 😂
