I used voice clips of me saying "ready" and "go" from a previous game. Not sure if that counts.

Also I used a pixel font called m3x6

Simple, yet very enjoyable game! I don't know why but this samurai reminds me of and old game Legend of Kage. Had fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'll have to check out Legend of Kage

It's actually a fun mechanic, although I would have added the ability to turn around. In my opinion, you could gradually increase the difficulty and maybe add some random power-ups. Well done.

Developer

Thanks! I might come back to it another day and build up into something more fleshed out.

I really enjoyed this! It's simple but it takes some skill and is very easy to understand. Well done in under 8 hours!

Developer

Appreciate the kind words. Thanks for playing!

Nice simple game, i agree with previous comment on fliping the character but it's still really enjoyable this way. Good job.

In spare time please also rate my game :)

Developer

Thank you for playing! I'll try and play yours tonight! Love your pfp hahaha

Love the controls i just hoped that the samurai can flip so that its easier but if thats the feature not to flip i understand too cuz it will be too easy if it flips AWESOME PIXEL ART, ABSOLUTE CINEMA ON THE GAME!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, it was an intentional design decision. Thought it would keep the game game more interesting since it would be less symmetrical. Might change it up in the future with other ways to spice up gameplay. Thanks for playing!

I so wish you had more time on this, the art is actually crazy good - not just the backdrop but the little details and everything. Also lol the description.

Developer

Thanks! Life got in the way, and I didn't have a great idea before hand that I'd be able to pull off, but I'm glad I participated all the same :) Appreciate the kind words

Wow you did that in under 8 hours? Thats awesome! Love the artwork. Maybe adding a catchy soundtrack?

Developer

Yup! 8 hours on a Saturday lol. I know because I had a timer since I was also submitting it to the concurrent tri-jam. Obviously I didn't quite finish in time to qualify for that hahaha

Loved the game - great for 8 hours of developement. Minor animations like hair on the jump or logs breaking to 2 halves and flying really feel like a pleasure to watch. Simple but fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Appreciate the kind words
