Making the skeletons follow must have been quite a challenge. Nice work.

I'm still very new to game-development, so everything was a bit of a challenge tbh lol. I appreciate you taking the time to play my game!

Game feels really good and I like your sprites! Not sure if it's a bug on my end, but I went back to the game after reading comments about how they liked your audio. I had thought the game didn't have sfx/music but apparently regardless if I loaded the game on chrome or firefox the music/sfx defaulted to being turned to 0 unless I went to settings?  Either way, I liked them though once I went and turned them up:)  Nice work though, and I look forward to those bards singing my achievements!

Thanks so much! I'm really happy you gave the game another chance after learning there was sound. I wasn't aware of that "defaulting to 0" issue, but I'll be sure to go in after the jam and make sure this is fixed. No matter what, you can't turn down the volume of those bards! lol

The game's feel is good man. It's audio effects are very well done. The background music is good. The theme connection is pretty good. There's a bit of issue with the difficulty, if the player sticks to the top of the screen and keeps moving the sword i.e. you keep pressing space all the skulls get crush. I think that's why you added the coins to disappear after certain periods of time. A timer with health decrease when on the side would add to the difficulty. 

But overall it's really good. I would love to see more levels with obstacles and a fleshed out story. Keep working on this mate. Well done. Love it.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words and encouraging feedback. After the jam I'd like to get back in there to iron out the kinks and add more story, enemies, levels, etc.

The start of the game is quite challenging, the swords upgrade is a must for easier fights. And this is game has the most creative way of winning by buying an item to win! XD Great game!

Developer

Thank you for your comment, I'm so glad you enjoyed! :)

Nice game! Could work a bit on the sword sound effect, but I really liked the music!

Developer

Noted! Thank you so much for playing :)

The game is well-crafted! It’s a shame it’s missing sound effects, but I loved stacking all the skeletons and bashing them—so satisfying!

Developer

That means a lot, thank you so much! The game has music and sound effects. This is the first I’ve heard of this issue. If you have the time, maybe reload the page and try again? Either way, I can look into any potential causes on my end. Thanks again!

I after getting all the upgrades I'd start running in circles (trying to sneak through  gaps to not get hit) so to get as many skeletons in one spot at once, then I'd slash them, other people should try that its fun

To be quite frank; I expected this game to be horrible, though I was presently surprised.

Despite the somewhat poor presentation, the gameplay loop is actually really fun and the combat is really nice. The movement feels very off though; the acceleration should be instant.

Great game!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! Super happy to hear you enjoyed the game. I'm new to game-making so I didn't have much time left over for presentation lol sorry you didn't like that, but definitely something I want to go back and tweak after the jam!
