- I AM MEOWLNIR SLAYER OF JOTUNS. Absolutely fun game and a well made prototype which runs overall quite smooth in the browser until the whole jotun population shows up, then it gets laggy. The GDD is well written and acts as a great base for the games development. The skills feel powerful and mighty as they should, the sound and music is amazing and has the correct energy for this kind of game. The only thing you might want to look into is the balancing between the enemies and the player, I was on my first play pretty much unbeatable from the beginning, I could run into all the enemies without really taking damage, running through hordes of enemies with some life leech was enough to keep me topped of. A way to see the upgrades the player has would be great as well like on the side of the screen maybe. I had a lot of fun playing this, thank you and keep the fun work up.

Summarise your game!
You are the mighty Meowlnir, hammer of legend! Thor has been tricked by his nefarious brother Loki and is trapped in the maze of Jotunheim. Battle the Jotuns, get to Thor, and help him escape!
The only controls are to move! Navigate the Jotun maze by following Hugin & Munin to find Thor. Choose weapons and upgrades as you level up by defeating the Jotuns.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
I've always been inspired by Thor and his magical hammer of Norse legend (and have a replica on my desk). If I am to be a weapon, I'd want to be none other than mighty Mjolnir!
Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
I'd like the judges to have fun!

Very fun. I felt like I became OP too fast, maybe it's some kind of bug? I got a lot of cats and the SFX went wild.
Brilliant game! I only had issues with the Bifröst and high attack speed. And lifesteal dominates everything!
Great use of the theme! Meow.
My dumb brain did not figure out that you can hit enemies with yourself for like 10 minutes. Even though 'you are the weapon.'
Indeed the Frost giants won't hit you if you're moving, but you do take just 1 damage for hitting them. Stopping for just a few frames in a large group can mean a lot of damage.
Fun premise, fun game!
Fun game with great art and the upgrade system was pretty satisfying. Meow Meow!
Fun game with dope art!
I wish it oI really op set up at the beginning and it wasn't challenging at all, but overall 10/10
very cool survivors game! the music puts you in a good mood and the gameplay is quite fun. I felt like I got really strong very early so it wasn’t much of a challenge. Overall, well done though!
Really clean game. Love the aesthetic and look and feel. I would just say that if the cat foot could be bit smaller or less visible it would be even better as I could not enjoy the nice graphics as much as I wanted :) but well done !
Life leech definitely super good, good game to just start up and get right into the action
Really fun survivors game. I loved the gigantic cat paw ability as it powered up. I think the life leach might be a little OP once I had some of it I was pretty much unkillable. Great job on this it's fun!
Super fun! At the very end it crashed lol
After a few regen upgrades I couldn't seem to die, so it wasn't super skill based, but still a very fun run and gun still
I maxed out the "Thunder" which was really fun because it covered the entire screen 9/10 game wish it had an end screen for level 23+
Really nice Survivors-like with a fun theme! Great feeling power-ups and well polished, fantastic job!
Nice prototype game for a survivor-like. My weapon of choice was definitely the lightning cats!
Looking good! I had a nice chill time playing Meowlnir! I liked all of the upgrades and special effects. Music and sound was really satisfying. Great job!
The gameplay loop is quite fun, its a very enjoyable gameplay experience. I was a bit confused about what the birds were for till I followed them haha. The game is very good, well done!
stressful in a fun way! Love the art, very educational about the cats of norse mythology too XD
Had a great time, was a well made game congrats!
Super fun time! Really juicy game feel, great power fantasy for the player. Lifesteal meant my HP never went below max, though, and things started to lag like crazy during the last wave, but overall really enjoyed it. Cute art style and great sound design too.
