Really simple game. Like less-than-a-minute short, but you can tell there was a lot of thought put into it in terms of story, art, and I think even optimization since it ran so smoothly in the few seconds it did. I hope to see more in the near future. <3
The art is amazing! I also love the music and the sound effects! The story concept is really interesting too! Really nice entry!
Though this game might be short, throughout its runtime, it shows a huge amount of heart, soul and personality. The art on this is simply extraordinary. The logo caught my eye a lot! Then, there's the cutscenes and the animation during gameplay. Something about the color palette, the cute and beautiful art and the animation style just gives the game a LOT of charm. This also extends to the UI box of the timing minigame, which looks awesome!
The concept of the story is a cool twist on Excalibur. The sword itself not wanting to be used for violence any longer and having that be the "Why?" of why it's so heavy to pull off is interesting! I see a lot of interesting possibilities for that set up.
The music is very fitting and perfectly achieves the atmosphere you guys were going for. Gives a fantasy, magical, light and humorous feeling to the game. Very pleasant!
Also, love the designs of the frog and the strong guy. The strong guy's especially. Who would have thought that such a mighty warrior would've been wearing socks?
Would love to see more. I like this a lot!
Simple game but the art really makes it shine! Great job!
Thank you so much!
