Nice game
I enjoy the visuals, i especially like the mix you made of pixel art with some more Hd looking effects like the water reflections and fog.
The story is cool as well and i like the humorous tone you went for, like with that wizard teleporting that door switch inside your cell cause he can't be bothered pressing it himself to free you :p
However i feel there are a few issues, while the controls feel nice jumping can have its problems i'd suspect due to the level design, mostly in areas with a low ceiling where you bonk your head up and can't make the jump.
Combat lacks a bit of feedback when you hit enemies other than the armor clang sound so at first i wasn't sure if it did anything or if they parried and took no damage, plus the fact that they have collision with the player can sometimes lead to wacky stuff likke riding on top of the ogre enemies, though i gotta say that despite that the 3hit combo and roll feel satisfying to use and are well implemented.
The game has got quite some qualities despite the few setbacks i mentioned, and i really like how you put the persistence of the map to quite some extremes, like the enemies being able to follow you through screens and same for projectiles, impressive :o
You put a lot of effort and it shows, especially for solo work, and you've got a solid base here if you wish to develop it further post jam.
Well done :)
