Note, I accidentally clicked "delete" but Itch.io doesn't confirm this and I can no longer re-upload. To play, please view here: https://counterpoint.itch.io/cursed-castle-2

Very fun and difficult game!  Definitely evokes a feeling of a cursed castle.

When I click play game, nothing seems to happen. The screen goes maybe a dark gray, but none of the keys work and tab moves my window down, nothing in game (thought of trying to restart). I'm running windows 10, chrome. Any suggestions?

Great job! Punishing and devious. Addictive just-one-more-try play. The only suggestion I have is adding a sound effect for when you restart a level. Overall, incredible work! ETA: I forgot to mention, the sound design is great too!

Very polished game! Reminded me of Cat Mario, I felt the same frustation xD.

Amazing game, 10/10 RAGE. One day I will definitely reach the end of the game.

Interesting concept! I liked the idea, it also sort of fits to the theme!

Haha it made me rage while playing.

Lot's of (hair-pulling fun! Reminded me of I Wanna be the Guy.

One improvement that I think would make it a little more forgiving is the ability to release a jump early rather than committing to the full height.

I was thinking the same exact thing when I replied level 4, very astute comment!

+ nice concept
+ appreciate the music and sound effects
+ I genuinely laughed on the 3rd or 4th level at the absurd hardness!
+ loved the blood

- not my favourite type of game
- would be better for the level to auto-restart after a few seconds

You sir are dick. Great little game if you like the abuse. Awesome blood effects

Bahahah!

I liked it, very difficult, may be the space bar could be used to restart a level, as I was getting RSI reaching for TAB

Very nice rage game. Not my style of game to play but I still enjoyed it. Very well polished and very cursed

I'm not into rage games, but this was fun and well polished. Maybe the hitboxes were a little unforgiving? It might be deliberate, but I didn't like that very much. Besides that, well done

Really neat game and great atmosphere! Love the music and sound fx. Extremely challenging and had a good laugh a couple of times at how sadistic it can be!

I really enjoyed this game! Nice level design and good use of the assets.  😁

Nice IWBTG game. Quite cursed indeed.

Fun little game, but very, very challenging. I wish a menu came up to restart when you died instead of having a button do it, but it's still nice the way it is 

Good work!

Goodgame/10, very brutal! very curse, wow.


The only complaint I really have is I wish it just reset me automatically when I died, since it happens a lot.

Great game, real tricky on the later levels - how many did you end up making? Looks amazing to be honest - really well polished with the sound effects too! Matches the theme perfectly - awesome stuff.
