This game was really good. Very creative and I've never seen a concept like it before.
The aesthetics are nice and I like the tension of you getting through an area and trying not to lose too many of your guys.
The controls felt a little bit weird and it could feel a bit difficult getting through tight spaces. But I really like the movement system and it could only use some small improvements.
The magic missile did feel a bit weak. And some of the later levels felt like straight lines to the end. But I do enjoy the weapon system and the level design overall.
Great concept and I had a lot of fun playing.
Here's my playthrough of your game! It's at the 18:19 mark of this video.
Love the soundtrack, very creative gameplay. I wouldn't come up with this idea in a thousand years, haha. Simply fun to play!
I haven't seen this kind of mechanics before, and it's incredibly exciting. I love that the spinning mechanics are very clear, but they can be challenging to master, and the combination with the dungeon crawler is amazing. The music is also excellent!
Game's control is simple and hard to master, but it is creative and fun as heck. I love how you can have the skeletons equip themselves with weapons and shields to protect themselves against enemies.
Excellent jam submission!
just.... speechless......
gooood job
What a strange, bizarre, yet captivating concept.
Even after completing the (basic) game, I'm still not entirely sure how to move around smoothly. The game is still a bit difficult. I died an embarrassing number of times on the first mage with three fireballs, and it's really tricky to manage the bounces off the walls.
But it's still super stylish.
There are lots of interesting level design situations, even if I sometimes have trouble understanding the layout of certain levels, like the first level of the second biome, where I got lost in the area on the far right for ages when all I had to do was go straight ahead to complete the level (Biome 2 has the best music in the game, by the way, what a banger).
Very cool game!
