I love this take on the theme! Very creative and unique. Well done for so many sprites and animations in such a short time.
For suggestions if you continue with this game:
- I like the music, but when it stops when you enter a fight, then starts again once you're back on the farm it gets a little repetitive of the same bit - as there's lots of fights to be fighting! I'd maybe make the music continuous, with the SFX of the fight loud enough to be heard over the top :)
- I know you have said in comments that it's placeholder sprites, but I think you could make the main character stand out a little more with either an outline around them or an area effect? Just to make him "pop" a little
- I'd like to see some UI to show if there's a cooldown for how often you can punch/block. It felt like there is a cooldown but I couldn't *visually* confirm it.
Overall, super cool game! I really like the fighting aspect and the whole creative take on the theme idea. Well done for doing so much in a short time, and thank you for joining our Jam!! :)
