For your first game in 72 hours, this was astonishing! The art was so well made, the animation of the boss and the arrow was amazing to look at, the music was pretty decent for a boss. The gameplay as well was awesome on its own and the idea of an arrow attacking a boss was a pretty nice concept and limitation! The only thing was the hitbox as it made my arm tired keep trying to attack the boss, but I still really loved how this game turned out, so I ended up finishing off the boss! I also loved the attack patterns you used as well for the boss. It was pretty challenging. Only thing I would suggest is perhaps add a health bar next time because I didn't like how I had to start over after dealing so much damage to the boss. Overall, great job on this game!

Thanks!
I have to admit, the reason the boss kills you with one shot is the same reason old games are so difficult: to extend playtime (I'm not very proud of this).
The way you hurt the boss isn't the best either but was the easiest way to code it.
Not very proud of the game in general, but at least I learned a lot.
Thanks for the comment :)
I don't blame you there. I didn't mind playing games like that as it gave me a serious challenge and helped me to strategize. It may sometimes work in this time of gaming, sometimes it may not according to the players. It is very important to point out you atleast created a game and submitted it and learned alot.
