Cool idea. Didn't quite understand how the combat worked but I like how there was a story to get you interested in the game, and I like how the controls are explained in the game itself.

I was also a bit confused about why you sometimes jump higher, and how sometimes the axe is high and sometimes low.

Sometimes the text would clip outside of the text boxes but other than that the graphics and sound design are really well done :)

Nice work, I couldn't get anywhere, but I am bad at games. 

This feels like a lot of thought went into it, but the combat system was entirely lost on me :/ No idea how the instructions connect with what’s happening on the screen. As such, I won’t be rating this one. Maybe I’ll come back and it will click later :)

Love the art and the music, and it’s quite rare to see narrative games in jams. Shame you didn’t get to polish the combat as well. I’m not sure I was meant to just hold down the attack button on the boss, but it sure did something to it. We don’t talk about my final score though.

I use a 60% keyboard; it's basically impossible to play a game that requires arrow key movement AND letters. My arrows are on a layer.

In the future, WASD would be appreciated!

i had terrible difficulties with hitting the monster, i was never sure if i would actually hit the monsters, or even swing my axe at all ... too bad because the game looks nice, it has its own graphic style, which is cool.
