I really liked how big you made the level, actually had to explore a bit, and was nice seeing things I'd be able to do later as the archer so I could plan his trip.
I also ran into the issue of the wizard throwing potions after he had died, and also ran into my own arrow a few times (though I don't think that damaged me).
Good work!
Thank you so much! I'm aware of the wizard glitch and could have fixed it easily if I knew it before. Thanks for the review!
I had some minor glitches like collecting the coins twice or the wizard shooting a flask even when just dead, but I had a nice time. Also, great idea making duplicating the gameplay with a second character!
Thank you so much for you comment!
Pretty fun game! I liked the open level design and going through the level with two different characters was pretty creative.
I did notice that enemy hitboxes linger while they're dying, sometimes I would lose HP because I walked into a dying ghost. I also felt like the ghost's hitboxes might have been a bit bigger than their sprite.
I also would've liked to see some feedback upon taking damage, even if it is as simple as the player flashing red. Sometimes it's not noticeable until I died.
Great job overall on finishing it within the time limit!
Thank you for your review. I tried to set the hitboxes as well as I can but I could have polished a it a little more. Thank you for your comment!
I really love the music design, the main menu theme seems like a swing with this call-response the bass gives ( i suppose it's something like C - Eb - G - Eb 3 times and then C - G - A - B and repeat), also i really love the gameplay too, the fact that you can choose wich character to play and they give differnt looks on the game is really enjoyable!
Really a well made game!
Thank you for your comments! I'm glad you liked.
Very nice game! I like the idea of playing it two times, having different paths and the possibility to get a better score! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Really fun game :D
enjoyed exploring the dungeon and killing enemies ! :3
Though in the tutorial i thought i can play with the archer :o
i was only able to play the knight all the time :3
overall, great work !
After you win the game with the knight, you play with the archer. I agree that it could have been a choice but I understand the limits of a game jam
As the Optimans said you can play as archer after you finish the level as knight. I did not have enough time to implement the character selection screen. Other than that, thank you for your kind words!
Cool game! What a fun idea to play with two different characters. The level is pretty big and nice to explore.
The hitboxes felt a bit unforgiving - having checkpoints helps a ton,
Thank you so much! I tried to make the hitboxes as forgiving as possible but I did not playtest it that much. Thank you for your review!
I like the music and sfx overall. I wish you would develop melodic parts a bit more, so it's not as repetitive. However the concept is pretty fun.
Thank you! I should have worked on the sounds a little more. Thanks for your opinion!
This was really well done! Only being able to attack horizontally with the knight felt frustrating for a sec, but I love the style and introduction! Personality really shone through with the intro!
Thank you! I could have done the combat system a little better. Thanks for the review!
Nailed the theme and that music was epic!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it.
Great job! That looks really good.
Thank you!
It is a nice game, just don’t like the initial explanation things. It should be learned while playing imo. Great job in such a short time!
Saol kardeş. I thought it would be hard to understand all the things like the dirt and the target blocks, so I did it like that. I respect your opinion.
Zaman çok kistili olduğu icin katılıyorum, geliştirmeye devam ederseniz oyuna yedirmek daha tatlı olur, çeşitli ve güzel mekanikler. Ellerinize sağlık!
Çok teşekkürler. Jam sonuçlanınca biraz daha geliştirebilirim.
Really nice game! I didn't immediately understand the controls but got them down after a minute or two. Well done!
Thank you! I should have put the controls in the game too but I forgot it at the last minute.
You can just put them on your itch page. That's usually good enough :)
Animations are cool, but music is annoying.
Did it on the last second. I'm not that good at it. Thanks for the review!
Understandable, great work overall 👍
Thank you so much!
Really cool
