Ok... wow.. I havent played many games yet. But I might just call it here. This is going to be one of the strongest contender there is. I loved EVERYTHING about it (You get a 5*, you get a 5*, everyone gets a 5*).
Off the top of my head, chronologically.
- The mouse tagged parallelBG
- The cozy music.
- Fits perfectly with the cozy artstyle.
- The intuitive UI (I followed its development you posted on GWJ discord). The sword and shield slots made it clear.
- The golem CATCHES ON FIRE.
This is a commercially viable project right here! Sublime Entry, very inspiring.
Edit: Oh if I had to add one thing. I would have liked it if the tutorial screen threw out the info all at once, on a bigger canvas. I have a goldfish memory so I had to keep flipping the page to remind myself what each thing did!
