The idea for a game is quite ambitious, but you made a good job to make it fun in only 48 hours! The story is sad, though, it reminds me the cabbage man from the Avatar The last Airbender... keep up with the game!
The poor cabbage man, always getting his cabbages destroyed :( At least in this game, it ends on a happy note!
(Ps, did you try "run" in combat?)
