This was an ambitious idea that you managed to execute very well. There are so many skills, events and upgrades which made for very interesting fights, especially when I had to go up against my previous, overpowered character. Great work overall!

Real fun concept. I like killing my creation. Its amazing you were able to put so many options in the game given the length of the jam! Kudos

In the end we all become the tyrant, if we truly use violence against them. The first puny Tyrant did not even scratch my character, which I myself created, and was felled in a bloodbath of arrows, magic missiles, and axe swings. Death to the tyrant, right...?

Nice idea love it!

Cool idea, though the pacing is a bit slow for me to want to do too many loops.

The idea of this game is really cool, but unfortunately I got stuck when I picked up a power up. The power up screen where you choose your ability didn't let me exit!

Maxed out strength and settled on my stardard rpg big bonk build! Definatly hindered my progress moving forward haha

cool little game! really enjoyed the loop idea about fighting your previous build as a tyrant!

OMG You guys made a character creation I was so happy!! Got the horse on my first run and crushed it as a mage.  Then I realized I had to kill my old hero o: Good job!! 

Really liked it! Good job.

two main things i enjoyed about this game, was the way you train and build your skill profile and level up, it reminds me of pokemon, with having battles and upgrading weapons/skills. I also enjoyed the loop aspect of the hero and tyrant, as you continue to fight tyrants they were your previous character build which was interesting to play again and hooked me to keep trying to get stronger and build a better defense. An additional note, I like the art and theme, it is quite fun. Has potential, would be nice to see it in the game store in future.
