Gosh the art is so adorable! I like the music change between areas. The environment is really pretty! The combat mechanic is fun, but sometimes it was hard to tell where the sword hitbox was. The area fight for one of the keys restarted when I went back to the room (not sure if that was intentional?) I’m glad the boss fight lets me retry thats nice, the mechanic of using the bombs is interesting!
Some minor nit-picky feedback: Sometimes it wasa bit hard to tell where the collision of the rocks were, I think making it smaller than the visual might help. I think keeping rooms unlocked after I solved the puzzle would be more convenient as well.
I absolutely adore teh little wiggle of the main character’s ears as they run. The sound effects were pleasant and fitting. I like the story. I like the credits scroll it was nice as well. Overall a cosy little adventure with a nice story and great art. Great work!
Great game, the cat knight is very cute! I did enjoy it but I got stuck fighting the snake so I couldn't finish. Fantastic work on the art and music though.
Once you have defeated the snake, you will have a new, improved sword. We seem to have forgotten to communicate this well. You'll be able to cut up bushes afterwards! I would be happy if you would try again x3
Thank you for the positive feedback. Were you unable to beat the snake boss because it was too hard or because of a bug that prevented you from leaving a certain area?
Not a bug I don't think, more of a skill issue on my end. Though it would be helpful to have a health bar on the snake so you can tell how close you are to defeating it.
A health bar was actually intended for the snake, but in all the hustle and bustle we completely forgot about it.
Aha! I figured it out... some of those rock puzzles did a number on me, but I beat it! Does it make me a bad person that I very quickly figured out how to beat the final battle :P
Were you able to get the princess out of the crystal without collecting the 5 shards?
Love this! However I must not be very good at it... my keys just broke and now there is nothing to do :/
(I did not realize you could edit posts lol)
It should not be possible to softlock with keys. We have tested it many times. We are always willing to help you if you get stuck, but if you were able to solve it yourself, please edit your post instead of writing a new one. ^^
Great game! I love the art and story a lot.
The combat feels pretty solid too! Killing the bats in the overworld feels very similar to stardew valley's caves
