This is one of my favorites, because of the funny writing. I purloined quite a few potions.

It's simple but it is fun.

Developer

Thank you.  I'm glad you like it!

i love how fast it gets sometimes, i could see that being really fun with some more movement mechanics in an expanded version!

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, with more time I was considering a jump, dash, and possibly a way to slap the skulls away from you.

pretty great! loved the story and the addictive gameplay best score was around 22

 

Developer

Thank you so much! Yours is really fun too.

Simple, effective! The spirit of the trijam!

I only got 26 potions...

Developer

Thank you for the kind words.  Your entry is one of my favorites, btw.

I love the alliteration and the backstory! 😂 My record is 46

Developer

Great job!  46 is a solid score!

I love the idea of a potion heist lol. A simple but good game ! 

Developer

Thanks!  I have a weakness for people stealing unusual things, I guess.  Years ago I released a Zelda-like that is centered around a pompous swashbuckler recovering his stolen hat.

Funny game with some backstory to boot! I got 30 potions, but once the potions get thrown at pretty much every frame, it's not possible to get them all :D

Thank you!  

Yeah, it gets tough quick.  It will actually slow down for a while after that barrage (and repeat the cycle, though it's never as slow as it is to begin with).  If I were putting more than 3 hours into it, I'd probably put a little intelligence into the barrage and make it avoid throwing skulls when it's in barrage mode.  I got lucky when I caught 78 - I had two barrages in a row where the potions were sort of clumped together and there weren't many skulls.

Developer

My personal best score is 78 perfectly purloined potions.  Can you beat that?
