Very fun! Combat felt pretty good and enemies were a good level of difficulty, the guy getting squashed felt like that bit in Hollow Knight lol. The music fit the theme of each really nicely and the art was also pretty good! 

I ALMOST got to the end, but the fat orange guy killed me after I killed the boss :(

Definitely one of the most fun games imo, great job!

Thank you for leaving a comment! It totally reminds me of that bit in Hollow Knight now that you say it.

The imp getting crushed was really funny :D and I think the level select visually showing you ascending the castle is a great touch! Unfortunately I ran into the bug another commenter was having where the stars didn't show up after defeating the boss. It might have been because I killed the boss before all its minions? (I tried it again saving the boss for last and it worked properly). Had a good time overall!

Thank you for trying the game! I think that weird bug happens when you kill multiple enemies at a time. :| I don't know though.

(I love your game too! It's real good! :) )

Sadness washes over me, I died to the final boss when he was one tick away from death...

Great game!

Thank you very much for playing my game!

Also, I usually try to play everyone's jam game who commented on my game, but, I couldn't play your game because the computer I'm using doesn't do downloads well. :( sorry about that.

This is a fun game! I love the play on words you did for the theme lol

Developer

(I like your game too!) :)

Wow - amazing! Everything was so well done, the final boss took me a few attempts (I kept just trying to burst Count Down). I like even the small details like the ties they have on! Very well done :)

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it.

I really liked this game and I totally would have played to the end, but level two would never let me complete it even after I killed all the enemies. Then I reloaded and played through it again, and the same thing happened to me on the final boss (I killed all enemies and nothing happened, had to run out down the clock). Which is tragic, because I loved the gameplay loop! It was simple and fun, and I think having a menu setup like yours is genius for a game jam because players can see the end. I am taking a lesson from this game, which is to make fewer levels and make them more polished instead of making a sprawling game that's not as well crafted.

Developer

Thank you for the comment! that is really kind of you to say. 

That's a weird bug that I don't know how to fix yet, I think it happens when you kill more than one enemy at a time.

Super fun gameplay!

That's a really good game, i had so much fun, i love the art and the simplicity.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing my game! I appreciate all comments and feedback that I get.

Very fun to play. Good polish of the music between levels. A bit too easy because I could just spam by locking the mouse over the enemy. I would like to have more visual feedback on the amount of hit points remaining to defeat an enemy. All in all, very good!

Developer

Thank you for playing my game! In a later update I might add health bars. I appreciate any feedback that could make the game even better!
