This game has a really solid gameplay loop and I really enjoyed the upgrades and escalating difficulty. However I felt as if the pacing could be improved if the earlier rounds were shorter. Enemy variety would also help a lot with spicing up the gameplay. Nonetheless a great entry to the jam!

Got to round 10, had a fun time!

Sound effects are great, the goblins had me laughing when I heard them the first time. Very solid visuals as well!

When I first started playing, I honestly had a difficult time understanding how the swing worked. Despite the instructions saying smite is the space/lmb, I was under the impression it was also an attack button. Therefore, I thought the sword swing had an input delay for a minute or so until I understood it was automatically done when facing an enemy. Some clarity on that part in the instructions would go a long way for first impressions!

Once I understood how it worked, I enjoyed the gameplay loop, and the variety of options you have to purchase after each round (loved the fart upgrade)

I felt a little too powerful by the time I got to round 4 or 5, early enough that it felt like it took away the fun I was having in the first few round. Those power ups are too strong! The difficulty ramps up much more by round 9, but I was wanting that intensity by round 5!

Overall, I think this is extremely well made and has such a solid foundation, especially with difficulty tuning. Fantastic job!

Very cool game! You could probably add some background music, though.
