I love the simplicity of this. The artstyle is very nice! I just wish that a similar level of care could’ve gone into the UI elements (icons, health bar, etc.)

I'm obsessed with the art in this, it looks so good! I like the gameplay mechanic too, it's simple but doesn't get boring. Awesome job on this!

Thank you for playing! Believe it or not I thought the art was going to be my weak point going into the jam but it seems like people like it.

The intro, the shop system, the quotes. This was great! I also like the unique art style and music for the setting too, really makes this one stand out to me.

Good job on your first jam, especially a solo one!

Would be cool to skip the cutscene once you've seen it once, but cool entry.

The intro screen got me confused, I quit the game because I clicked before reading lol. When I died for the first time I got 16 coins and I couln't buy anything with that :(
The intro slide should be skippable or move forward once you already died once.
Bolgar the 7th killed the whole enemy troop in the end 😎
Really cool little experience!

Simple and good jam entry, very addictive and very easy to get into

Ngl, same thing happened to me as to hatmix, I was trying to connect the targets to the dummy's target and wasn't getting why it isn't working until I noticed

Good game

Thanks for playing (until the end)! Yeah in retrospect putting the same target on the dummy was a bad idea haha

Oops, I totally should not have put a target on the dummy too. That's my bad

Excellent work. Simple but juicy, with incrementally more juice.

Everything just works, which is disproportionately satisfying for playtesters.

Spot on music.
