Great game! Very addicting and charming. Kept trying to get a little bit further each time until I figured out the system and then just got insane distances. Killed the Demon King!

Solid GDD. Your MSpaint skills are ruddy marvellous. The mechanics are cool and I like the upgrades idea. Do you think you'll add music in the future?

Thanks a lot! :)
Yes I'm already working on my music skills but right now it would make the game experience worse :D

Very satisfying game! The sword spinning makes it very energetic. I would love to see multiple playstyles available through the upgrade system or enemy interactions.

I do really like the idea of combining the throw system with the upgrade system. I think the only thing missing is some UI indicators on throw strength and direction and some clarity in the controls. It seems like you have to click and drag on the first throw but then to sword dash you only have to click. Took me a while to figure that out. Really nice job tho, i can see this one as a small steam game with some improvements.
