Really cool mechanic to rush and bury all the enemy corpses before the next night! The tutorial was also very smooth, love it!

Great game! I love that the gameplay encourages you to gather the enemies together. The knockback sometimes works against you as well which is nice. Overall, this was really fun!

Developer

Thank you

The visuals of this game are really nice, the concept of having to bury the dead after killing them is somehow special and makes sense. Something I didn't really notice was the incorporation of the theme "together", the player is alone, not working together with anyone and since the enemies are hostile, I can't figure it out. But still, for the limited time frame, well done!

Yeah, I understand. I tried to make it so that killing and burying is done together with one shovel. Thanks for the compliments.

I really like the art style of this one.   Sound effects would have definitely helped but it was not game breaking.  I had fun with this one.  Time is never in our favor with these things.  I think you put together a nice little game here!

Developer

Yeah, I need to get better at managing my time. Thanks

Pretty fun game, I really enjoyed the art style and simplicity of it. Wished there was some audio to help bring it all together, but overall it's pretty good.

Beautiful graphics. Tutorial. And I expected to see a super game. But she's normal, which is a pity. It's a pity there is no music, and the gameplay is for five minutes. BUT! It's already cool. I felt in my own skin how difficult it is to make a game in 2 days. Pretty cool result, congratulations.

Developer

Thank you. 

The problem was time limitation. I was not able to add any audio or boss action. My last games were too hard for a lot of players so I made this one easier. Unfortunately balancing also requires a lot of time.
