Cool game! I went straight in and didn't read about any guide - so I was wondering why I kept respawning without losing any of my upgrades - then I realized... You are the weapon đ and after playing for a bit, I started to get different units picking me up - and also got an upgrade where you no longer get picked up by the basic skeletons. I wish the upgrades could have been given to me faster - I tried grinding for a bit but even then, the experience rate was slowing down a lot. But, I thought the animations and all the neat little abilities you added were great. A great twist on the genre though, I liked that about this game. Well done!!

Thanks for playing! I am glad you enjoyed it!
There are 2 systems in place that help with the EXP grind.
Summoners - if you donât kill them they just keep spawning you more and more mobs to get experience from
Exp Value changes - skeletons give 1exp, goblins 5, humans / dwarf give 10
I adjusted the exp âfunctionâ for the average play time of ~25-30 minutes (if one doesnât die on purpose), so this game does indeed take longer then most
When it comes to the âpremium selectionâ upgrade there is a cheeky little thing. If you die on purpose while only basic skeletons are present - you get a goblin for free!!!
Additional hidden mechanic is that everyone gets a âchargeâ of premium selection after the first armoured skeleton is spawned to get âthe feel of mechanicsâ
