I had fun! Core gameplay works well, and I think it's good that it transitions into an autoclicker after a moment - I rushed that upgrade in my 2nd playthrough. I felt like I couldn't really get into the zone with dashing and use it effectively though. Good idea to have an option to pause when hovering over the shop. Also I appreciated the enemy variety.

Actually ended up playing this way more than I expected, good job!

Very fun.  The leaderboard is a nice touch. Thought I was done with the game then saw that my time was 52nd....

Super fun !

Because of the leader board I've launched a second run :p

One of the few actually fun games that I've played! I played probably 4 or 5 rounds and managed to get 3rd on the leaderboard with a time of 3:45. I don't really even know what to say, other than that I'm impressed that it was done solo in C++!  The leaderboard adds a lot, of course, especially for people like me who love a competition. Great job!

This is a really cool game. I like the gradual increase in chaos and the upgrade system is very smart. You have to be clever with which upgrades you buy and precise with your attacks early on to get a good time. I especially liked how the game auto-pauses when you hover over the upgrade sidebar.

Quietly addictive.

Ghad dang it so cool! Got addicted, it feels like the game "Disfigure" but with its own flare. Great work!

Incremental games are my weakness. If it went on forever, I would play forever.

Instantly hooked. With more levels and variations this could legit be a hit game

World's first punch based idle game. A truly wonderful inovation.

Submitted

Fun game.  The attacks feel very satisfying especially towards the end when you have more upgrades.  The music speeding up is a nice touch too.

Submitted

Very reactive attacks, enjoyed it.

A super simple idea that's been beautifully implemented! I'm amazed that you got that many upgrades working and scaling together so well 👏👏 p.s. with some redesigning of the menu this would be a great mobile game!!

Submitted

I love the idea! Also a very fun game to play! I do think that the hit sound effect is a bit to loud for me. Great work!

Submitted

Love the leader board! How did you implement it/how does it work with itch?

I use lootlocker for the leaderboard.

When the game is beaten, it sends a POST request to lootlocker to submit the score. They have some helpers for certain popular engines but I didn't use an engine for this

It's also very easy to send fake scores (at least the way I do it), but it's fine for jam games

Thanks for the explanation :)

Cool game! I would maybe make the dash destroy enemies as well to break up the monotonous input pattern of just clicking left all the time to attack.

absolute BOP of a soundtrack

Super addictive. Audio design is reeally satysfying

Well done! Very addictive.
