The banter between Harold and the other characters was great! Pretty fancy action sequencing, too. Doling out one skill at a time is interesting, makes me think about potential tutorial construction. Props for using a custom Harold sprite, too. Also noteworthy is how fast you put it together - I have to learn how to do that!
The things I don't like about this game are the lack of agency I have in the game; I click the buttons to move the action forward, but that's it. Also, the dragon is still visible on the map at the end.
It's overall a good quick experience that showcases some cool action sequences.
A nice short game with a funny battle and cool action sequences. Harold the coolest action hero, uses an explosion to return to his helicopter!
Replayed, and it was even better! Downthrust graphics!?! Machine guns and chainsaws!? Classic. Action sequences were A+. Harold is a true action hero.
Full Disclosure: I have an entry in the Jam.
Spirit and essence of Harold: It's Harold (just equipped with some non-standard accessories)
Fun: Entertaining little game
Creativity: Great use of parallax. Loved the rotation of skills and animations in battle
General comments: Solid game with good mechanics. Would be funny if the boss dropped teeth as loot and Harold had a one-liner about the dentist or his dental hygiene. FYI, if you click on 'Exclude unused files' during deployment, you can significantly reduce the size of the game package by removing unused RTP music, sounds, and pictures.
It is great short game. You are really intelligent to combine G.I. Joe and RPG parody together. And your action sequences are outstanding.
