Very good game. It was graphically very pleasing. I would probably make the sword a bit longer and little fewer hearts my self but if it's meant to be hard then you succeeded. Overall really enjoyed and very good for your first coded game! Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for your advice. I did originally just have 5 hearts but the only person I could get to test it said it was too hard. I probably should have lengthened the sword a bit, but I went instead with an increase in health for the player. It eventually got to a point where difficulty was hard to gauge because I had played it so many times and didn't have much luck getting additional external feedback. More play testing would have helped me fine tune that difficulty level, I'm sure. Going forward, that will be the goal. Thanks again!
