Very cute, simple, and clever way to develop the theme into a gameplay loop. The lair upgrades were a nice bit of flavor to the game that I always appreciate seeing. The art for the dragon and it's animations are really nice and clean. After my first time trying, I did think that maybe I could spam all 3 keys and it was a decent strategy. Maybe some kind of punishment if you press a key a number of times without hitting/stopping an enemy? Might be an interesting way to encourage more precise use of the attacks. Overall though, I think this is an excellent entry. Well done!

Amazing art, and I really enjoyed seeing the different lair upgrades appear!

Okay that dragon is awesome! The lair upgrades got me way more than I expected. I kept going just to see what would show up next. 

Only thing is I did end up mashing all three keys, which I'm sure you've haerd already. Didn't ruin it for me though. Lovely work!

This game looks gorgeous and the game feel is also amazing! The game itself is kinda too easy, you can just spam all 3 buttons... But definitely one of the best looking games in the jam, so great job!

Developer

I love the art in this entry, it looks super clean and dragons are my top when we talk about illustrating creatures. The gameplay is funny, the controls are pretty simple. IMHO, adding some upgrades and usable items would be amazing :) Solid game, very good job

Developer

Thank you for playing and for giving awesome feedback! 

Dragons are just universaly cool and I cannot NOT make something with them XD 

If there was more time id be fun to actally make it a true rythm game with items and all.

Art is fantastic! The skeletons were somehow kicking on their own at some point, so I stopped defending the foot and lost after one came in on a diagonal? Either way, super cute game, and I want to say that it came out really well. Good job!

Developer

Yeeeah the leg tend to have a mind of its own XD Only happens in the build so I genuinly dont know why hahha!

But thank you for playing!!!

This game was a very fun to play and the game felt very responsive and polished. Very on brand with the theme. The art was also really really good. I could see myself burning time playing this on cool math games or mimiclip.

Developer

Aww! Thank you so much!!

Love the game! The artwork and animations are amazing! I also found the lair upgrades to be a nice touch to make you wanna keep playing too. I think it's such a cute fun idea for a rhythm game :]  

Developer

Thank you for playing!!! That makes me so happy to hear thank you!

I was afraid at first that game over would hurt the dragon! Appreciated the lair upgrades and the whole vibe. Lighthearted and fun!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!! And ofc no! The idea was at first to have her waking up followed by a big animation of her wings flinging everything away was always there I just sadly ran out of time. Thank you for laying <3

Everything is absolutely spot on. Love the idea of kicking and whipping the tail, animations are excellent.

Developer

Thank you for playing! And for your kind words! The kicking is for sure my fave part as it just so sassy XD

I really am a big fan of rhythm games so this is right up my alley! Fun, and the art and music are great! 

Developer

Thank you for playing!! And thank you for your kind words <3 Wish I had the made it a actual rythm game XD one day maybe!

Submitted(+1)

I feel like this is a game that could become a full release and can be expanded upon! 

Developer(+1)

Aaw that so sweet of you! Think it might be too basic right now but who knows! 

Submitted(+1)

there’s always room to expand! :)

Like many others, I saw the dragon art on the Discord and knew I had to play this game.  It's been said before, but the art here is off-the-charts good!  The dragon is an absolutely gorgeous piece of art, and I loved all the little additions to the lair (which I hadn't been expecting).

There's a simple, addicting core gameplay loop underlying the game, and it's funny to watch the enemies go flying away.  I do think that making moves cost a point or adding a timeout after a miss or introducing a rhythm element or something like that would prevent the spamming, but even with the ability to mash, I felt compelled to keep playing to see what the next upgrade would be, which is a great sign.  Some additional visual effects/juice might also help to give a sense of weight to the dragon's attacks.  I also experienced a bug (maybe because of resizing the game mid-run?) where sometimes enemies would yeet themselves without me hitting any attacks, which I got a kick out of :P

All-in-all, I had fun with this one playing through multiple times (my second time was on the no-spam honor system and I'm embarrassed at how short the dragon's nap was...).  Great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing and for your feedback! It makes me so happy that you like the dragon and as mainly a artist it is what I was hoping people would like the most <3 And I really wanted to surprise people with some silly lair upgrades and my first plan was to have some enemies drop hats or decore but didnt know how to implement it.

Many have said the same and it really inforces that I wish I had made it a rythm game like the vision was - but I lack the coding skill for it XD - but its great to be told that it was probobly the best version of this little game!

Thank you so much!

As soon as i saw that dragon in the discord server i was soo excited to play what you make! :D

The art is so gorgeous adn the animations are so smooth! The lair decorations are a cute detail! That parallax menu -beautiful!

The gameplay is fun! I was able to keep her asleep for 5 minures, although after some time i found myself just mashing the keys:]

A very polished game, fun there's a dragon and even a LAMP!!! - it's perfect

Developer

Thank you for playing my game and for giving feedback!!

That makes me so happy to hear! 💕 The server has been so wholesome so thank you for being there! I love seeing how far people are coming! Makes me so happy to see and thank you for liking the art! My main goal so I'm so happy! 

Submitted

Really cool game! The art is incredible, the dragon looks amazing and is super detailed, and every animation feels great. The music syncing with the hits was a really nice touch, I loved that. The only thing I’d suggest adjusting is the hitboxes. Other than that, it’s a spectacular game! (I’ve attached a screenshot of my best score) :)

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback!! That is one high score!! Im so glad you enjoyed it for that long hahha! Thank you so much! Art is my main thing so that is high praise thank you!

This is so cool!!! The art is absolutely gorgeous, and animations are adorable, and I greatly enjoyed flinging the little attackers off the screen lol. Everything about the art in this game is definitely a stand out for me in this jam. Such a creative idea, simple to understand right away which is perfect for a jam game, and really embraces the theme. Quickly realized I could just press all 3 buttons simultaneously, but I know you've heard that before, and honestly that making it easier didn't bother me since I could decide how difficult I wanted the game to be at any given moment. The music is also really nice - it's catchy, and fits the game well, and sometimes it was fun to try and match my button presses to the beat. Also loved the subtle progression with the little decorations. My wrist hurts now but it was so worth it. Great work!!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and giving feedback!! Oh no be careful with that wrist hahah! But for real thank you so much for your kind words! My first time doing a solo jam and on itch so it warms my heart to read your comments and ratings! <3 Im so happy you had fun!

The text appeared in the middle, I couldn't read it, I tried to read it, got distracted, the dragon woke up. Wow what an evil text. Very nice and simple game, very nice looking dragon.

Developer

Hahhaha! Thanks for you review my friend! It was for sure made for fullscreen so I didnt realize that the upgrade text ended in middle untill later! Thank you for playing!! And the dragon thanks you!
