hey, that was my entry that came 2nd. i think i voted pretty fairly on all of the games that i played, and i doubt my votes would be enough to make a difference anyway? i know my game is simple but i was happy with how it turned out. i agree some games were more fun, but there were also points for storyline and theme, so maybe that had a impact

There was no rivalry, and the story is pretty vague considering it's a singular sentence.

of course there is rivalry, what do you define as rivalry? the game is about gladiator combat

the story was simple yes, but ive seen many games not include any story at all. there were plenty of games with better stories than mine i agree

The way you used the rivalry was (no offense) lazy, so rounded it down to being no rivalry. You can't place a killable enemy into game and call it rivalry, there's more unique ways to pull it off.

most of the games in this jam used that implementation of rivalry. i chose a gladiator theme because i think it's a good representation of rivalry, and i tried to give the player a grudge against the soldiers through my story, as short as it might have been
