- I really enjoyed playing this game! Exploring the cave was a great experience, and the absence of a time limit made it even more relaxing. The core mechanics worked smoothly, with only a few minor bugs that I noticed. Overall, it’s an impressive proof of concept and has a lot of potential if developed into a larger project.
- Out of all the games this one might be the most 'complete'. It has a functioning menu, working interactions and achievable goal state. The graphics and audio are also well implemented. Implementing all of these things within the tight time frame with time to spare is very well done! Thank you for taking part and I enjoyed playing this one.

This was a very cool project overall. The background music is great, and the fire effects/kill animation are well executed. The lighting and colour palette are excellent, giving the game a nostalgic PS2-platformer feel. The animations are strong, though they occasionally freeze, and there seems to be a minor physics issue.
I wound a glitch that required me to restart the game. Jumping past the flying bat near the waterfall lets you leave the map and prevents you from reaching the dying state — even with an empty sleep/health bar. These map boundaries definitely need tightening. I walked off the map.
I wasn’t personally a fan of the player beating lined-up livestock. Adding more story context could help frame the concept more clearly.
Overall, it’s a fun project with great style and atmosphere, but it would benefit from additional polish and clearer thematic alignment.
Fun to play, the best i got was 7 crystals sadly one had fallen down a pit so I got fried when it woke up. I did manage to escape tho but not by the bat I managed to fly out on a peice of steak XD
music is a bit loud but I understand, picking up the crystal is a bit hard to pick up. the game has some funny quirky bugs. A for effort. thanks for sharing.
I had fun playing and seeing what I could get away with and do to optimize my escape. Felt bad for the cow but not for the rest. Like the game design gives me Banjo Kazooie vibes. The music made me feel calm and when I was getting crystals it was the opposite and made me feel every Gong noise. The physics sent me of the map and got stuck, but I had fun riding a steak to sit with the dragon XD. Great game Keep it Up
Had fun playing this. Loved the whimsical humour. Punching to death poor farm animals! Haha. I didn't realise the dragon had gone to sleep - so I may have overfed him? I sent the cart after he was asleep but didn't get any reward. And I tried smashing the crystal but it didn't seem to tally so the bat kept abusing me. But all up a great, well contained fun game with great graphics and sound. Well done!
