The game was fun to play, animations and sound design were amazing. I loved how the background scene would change the further you went down. However I would like a respawn button in game.

The animations are smooth and the sound effects are great, upon death everything just kinda falls apart sadly. 6.8/10

I like the sound design and animations quite a lot, they're well done. I would like some sort of reaction when hit/ damaged by the lava or the orcs but the UI does work perfectly fine in this regard.

On the topic of damage the hit box of the orc should be adjusted, I tried bobbing and weaving: i.e. moving away and atacking, but I still took damage, tried this multiple times but I guess you're just meant to mash then until  they die which is not particularly engaging.


On death I would like a respawn button, rather than having to reload the page to play again.

I like the art and animations of the game. The game is pretty unique in it's design while implementing an attack. The enemies are well made and work fine. The camera is a bit too zoomed in, I fell in lava I couldn't see more than once. Would love some more UI elements and an option to increase the resolution. Really good game.

Fairly simple. Like how the enemies hits work. lava weird though. could use more sounds. like the animations

I really like the character animation and the style, the falling instead of jumping upwards was cool and original. I think the speed of the rocs hit was a little slow as I could just run through them.

Zorth: Journey To The Centre is a platformer about the young adventurer, Zorth, who can use his magic to zap enemies or his sword to dice them on his adventure to the power core, which has fractured the earth, sending islands up to float into the sky. This game was created by Team Human as part of the TDEMO fantasy platformer project.
