Loved the fighting mechanics. Very cute cozy game. Would love to see more levels/stories
Fun game ! I like the visuals !
The mechanics are simple but fun !
A cute game, consistently simple, not too long. I enjoyed it. Looks like you had fun making it, which is commendable :)
Very nice and well thought out. It has the potential to tell more stories :) One thing: just add a little help button or write somewhere to press space to fight the mage; I kept running, looking for a clue, and then tried buttons and found the sword moving :D
What a cute game! It has great graphics, it's really short, and it's fun to play. Maybe the collision boxes should be a little smaller. I really liked it. It made me smile.
Very cute game, loved the visuals and the audio, but wish the objectives had a bit more to do with each other, and the storyline was more developed. Over-all very fun.
Nice game! Hope you could add some sound effects though, also i noticed your using Godot and the "E" prompt looked a bit blurry, if you open the font in the file system and click import -> enable generate mipmap and multichannel signed signed distance field and click reimport, it should become less blurry

Such a nice small game. Nice job. I read through the comments and people already pointed some flaws so Im not going to repeat these. One thing I feel that would make the game feel way better would be sounds though. Just a few sounds such as footsteps or dialogue sounds would really enchance the feel. Overall well done on the game!
The overall atmosphere is really nice. I especially liked the interactions with the NPC villagers — the small quests helped me feel more connected to the characters in the game. One thing I noticed is that some of the UI elements, such as the “E” key prompt during NPC conversations, looked a little blurry.
Cozy little adventure :)
But what if the wizard is right?! What if things are not at all what they seem? It reminded me of the Sunlit Wetlands near the hag in BG3 :)
I liked how you built out the world with different npcs to talk to and enjoyed exploring it. I had a very easy time killing the wizard at the end and initially thought I needed to attack every creature in the dungeon because I had the sword. Great work!
My boyfriend and I enjoyed talking to the villagers (which made the wizard pretty suspicious right after the first one we talked to) and doing the animal puzzle and the maze!
The gameplay was relaxing, although it would be interesting if the attack mechanic was used a bit more in the maze (and it's almost impossible to lose against the wizard lmao). We would also have loved to have some more puzzles before the grand reveal, but other than that, the game is awesome and good job!
I enjoyed playing through this game. I liked the unique dialogue from the various NPC's. I would maybe like to see more of a way to disobey instructions, since you're kind of forced to do what you're told. I also think adding some more unique UI elements (such as fonts) would help a lot to make the visuals feel a little more complete. Still though, good job!
Nice fun game....Kinda relaxing after trying out much darker ones
Absolutely loved collecting cows and sheeps hehe
The fonts, animations and UI could use a little bit of work though, especially for the quest ui on the left corner..it doesnt really match the otherwise colorfully awesome vibe of the game..But yeah, in terms of gameplay I absolutely enjoyed it
nice storyline fits the theme well the ui for the subtitles or dialogs could be better animations are not bad ı think it has an own character for the game nice for a solo game developer
