Everything created by me, I only used someone's 8x8 pixel art interpretation of Link as the basis for the base frame for the player sprite. That was created by Voliol on DeviantArt.
Did you follow the theme?
Yes. The player has to switch between fire and ice elements in order to combat foes of opposite elements.
Did you (you or your team) do the graphisms yourself?
Yes (see credits above for more info)
Did you (you or your team) do the musics and sounds yourself?
Yes.

The game seems like a new spin on a DDR sort of game, which I liked. I think that the ammo/cooldown could be tweaked a little bit. I had too much at the beginning and barely any near the end, maybe it should recharge faster and faster as the levels go on. I do like the aesthetic of the game and the sound effects were nice and chunky. Hitting an enemy simply felt good.
Polished, beautiful & simple. Maybe some minor confusion when enemies overcrowd the center could be avoided, perhaps with a "lives" health system rathen than "gauge". Loved the UI surrounding the actual game, btw!
really like the pixel art you made for your game has a old school arcade or nes look to it. Didn't really notice any issues with the difficulty or anything either so great job on that department as well.
Very polished game with a great feel to it. I like how the enemies speed up if you hit them with their element. Great work!
Super nice job, simple yet satisfying and feels complete. I made it to level 9, was suprised how difficult it got, but I enjoy a good challenge. I think there may be a little too much randomness in the later levels? For example sometimes it gives me the green stuff when I don't need it and other times I never see the green drop when I do need it. (I'm also guilty of this in my game lol)
Thanks for the playthrough. Yes, the game still is in dire need of a balance and difficulty curve revision. If I continue working on it post-jam; that's the component that needs the most attention.
This is really polished game. The game design, graphics, and other content are simple, but I believe it is the simplicity that allowed you to push the game to perfection in such a short timeframe. Good job!
Although the gameplay seems a bit repetitive at times, the very simple mechanics and the design were well-made! It felt like I was in a dungeon XD
Very fun, simple concept that was pulled off very well :) Really enjoyed it!
Loved the retro art style! A simple concept for the gameplay but well executed!
Really challenging! I like the aesthetic for the game quite a bit, it really works well.
Super challenging and pretty fun! The retro is strong with this one :). I especially liked the mechanic where you have to avoid shooting the hearts and mana pickups - it’s nerve-wracking to watch them crawl towards you so slowwly (in a good way). Though most of the times when I died it was because of getting completely mobbed, so I’m not sure the health would have helped me there.
Really polished and nice work overall, keep it up!
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I really wanted the pick-up items to be a point of stress; where the play either needs to shoot them to keep the flow of the game going or risk being mobbed for the needed resource.
It really shows how hard you worked on this game. Looks polished. Also, it was a joy to follow your devlogs!
A bit too hard for me, but the concept and visuals are awesome!
I love the style of the game and had a lot of fun playing this! Good work :)
