Wow this is just a really fun game. Didn't find any bugs or anything frustrating with the game. Good job.
Great game, I had a lot of fun with it, I like the graphics and the gameplay itself is great.
Wow. SO fun, graphics are great, gameplay is great, theme is adhered to perfectly... No bugs that I noticed. I just did one playthrough so far, but I'm gonna play it some more... This is such a fun game!
1080 is my high score...
Great game. I Love It.
It would be nice if there was a speed up button.
That is indeed an interesting thing to add!
This is a really nice game, I like how the focus on merging the items while the battle is automated, also the presentation is simple so items are clear in terms of what they do, a really good concept.
Best of luck!!
Thank you for the comment!
Very nice game, I really enjoyed it!
Glad you did!
Wow, nice art style and intresiting core gameplay!
Appreciate it!
Love the Art style and concept. Nice work.
Thank you!
Thank you! Difficulty game design is definitely a thing that I will get better at!
Very cool idea. The art was quite good overall. Nice work.
Thank you!
Well done
That is dedication for sure!
Well, Orgo from Orc and evil because they are red. I believe it had something to do with a disease in that forest that is spreading that makes things red and agressive
I talk about he my first enemy in this run and i cant defeat him with starter items)
I understand now. That has never happened to me during my testing phases. Very interesting
Love the chunky pixel characters, good tunes. I like bag organization and stacking items. Nice job
Thank you! The art is from Shoppai, he is a great pixel artist. Check him out https://shoppai.itch.io/!
Very good game! The mood is amazing and everything fits nicely together.
If I'd say one thing, it's about the difficulty curve that could be adjusted: I feel like the game becomes really easy at the end
Thank you, I agree. The design of difficulty could have been improved
Very original game in a beautiful environment ! Music is also quite relaxing
Only critic : the game lacks more tiers for the mergings, but for a 3-days work I think it's great !
Thank you, the art was made by Shoppai! I agree, there could be a lot more mergings but due to the time limit I could only implement so much.
Very nice game ! Nice Idea with a great execution.
My only little point of frustration was that I wasn't able to order my items in the inventory but that's perfectly fine not to have that for a jam.
I'd love to see what more you can add to the game if you plan on continuing it after the jam.
Great work :)
In terms of Game Design, I felt that it would add a bit of difficulty to not be able to move items around, as you would need to quickly memorize where they are. But I do get your point, thank you!
I like the durability on the items and the drops after each encounter; managing the inventory and dealing with the different encounters is really an awesome idea - it'd be neat to have different monster types that responded to different weapon-types and defense accessories; but yah for such a short period of time this is awesome work!
Yeah! I had many ideas for this game, such as yours, but because it is a three days game jam I had to be humble about it. Thank you!
That was fun. In the long run it gets a bit repetitive, but it was a nice experience. And the art is top.
I'm just wondering what's the story behind this game. A barefoot guy in the wood collects random stuff and beats monsters. :D
Imagine waking up barefoot in the woods with random monsters and not beating the hell out of 'em haha. It is true, it gets repetitive but it is what it is for three days. Thank you
You've got a very cool runner! You have good graphics and music. I really liked the game concept. A very cool idea of merging weapons and conducting combat fights. The game lacks variety. Thanks for your cool game!
Thank you for the comment! It is true, lacks a bit of variety but it is what it is for 3 days!
A very well rounded game, had a blast playing it, keep up the good work, well done :)
Thank y ou!
