Have you checked that your GDD is publicly accessible ?
Yes
Is your game set to public on itch.io so we can see it?
Yes
Summarise your game!
You play a sentient shield trying to protect its owner - mighty knight Sir Tumbleweed - from a horde of demons come to take revenge. You can only bonk the demons around desperately until the drunk idiot decides to go for a drunken charge, at which point you better be in front of him!
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
What if the weapon you are is not a "weapon" in the traditional sense?
Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
All of us work 40 hour jobs and we weren't able to take any extra time off for this. It was all done in what little of our free time we could spare. Proud to be part of it. Have fun! :D

This is so fun, i kinda got the drunken master vibes!
At first I thought the enemies were angry cats, especially with those sounds they make when they bump into each other.
The feeling of knocking away the enemies was well implemented! Feels good to play! One of the little guys respawned right on top of me so that killed me. But overall nice work!!
Ayyyyy, what? Were you outside the screen at the time or very far off to the side? Ideally that shouldn't happen but it's a soft barrier at the moment. :sweat:
Thank you for playing. Glad the main mechanic feels good to play! :D
I was somewhere in the middle.
Strange. I'll have to keep an eye out for that. Thanks for the report. :D
Haha loved the idea of playing as the shield of a drunken knight. The execution is great as well! The animations and sound effects are really satisfying, make you feel the impact of the hit. Maybe a button like R key for instant restarting, since I died a lot in the beginning lol :D Great entry!
Yeah, pause menu and restart button are lacking. That's jam games for ya. :D
Thank you for the feedback and thank you for playing the game! It's great to hear that the main mechanic is satisfying! <3
Haha, I actually really love the concept. The drunkenness definitely adds a clever twist. Nice and simple although can be brutal with the one shot kill haha.
The drunken movement throws me for a loop constantly as well. Paired with the one-shot kill it can feel a bit undeserved, I agree. ~~
Glad you still enjoyed it! :D
