I like the unique gameplay, the graphics are honestly amazing, and the sound is too. I struggled to keep an overview on my viewer count and viewer feedback, as it was at the top of the screen and I had to concentrate looking at the bottom of the screen, where the arrows are. Having both at the bottom would probably make it feel too cluttered though, so I'm unsure if there is a better way to balance that.
Great game!

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! I agree about the location of the UI elements, and tried to put them bottom center at one point, but it did not quite work out. That darn Nokia and it's tiny screen ;)

Liked this game a lot ! Very unique with a nice touch of humor, a really arcady feel and collectibles to grind for.  Adding WASD would make the game feel easier tho

Grinding for followers makes me feel dirty. I like some of the secret items you can grind, but I feel like the last one is a little bit of a let down - I was expecting something really wild. Having arrows switch sides makes it a lot more difficult than it otherwise would be - I kept second guessing myself.

Nice work.

Thanks for playing! Yeah the final 100k unlock was a last minute addition and a bit of a troll, did not think anyone would go that far, so congratulations ;)
