This is a top-down RPG-style pixelated game. I can't say much more here without giving away the story, but that's all you need to know before you play it, really. Help is included in-game. I didn't finish the game in time, so it's incomplete, but all that's missing is a couple of chunks of the storyline, so it's completely playable, but very, very small. I might upload a complete version later.
I gave up after two quests, cause I didn't know what to do anymore, so I probably missed a few things (like fighting, since you mentioned a sword)... But overall the game works pretty well, & the story is fun! The ability to swim & the footsteps to keep track of where you've already been are a nice touch :)
On the downside it seems like the game involves a lot of wandering around in the grass, and given that there's very few point of interests, it gets a bit boring when you don't know in advance where you're supposed to go. Otherwise, good entry!
I quite enjoyed this game, for what I played with it. just like the person above, I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do. I got up to the bit where all the villagers start running away and you can kill them. Perhaps there was some hint in the text, but it would skip past quite quickly some of the time. Other than that, it was pretty fun and a good effort for a 72 hour jam.
I'm glad to be receiving positive feedback for this game! It's not finished, so as you can see the world is mostly empty, the directions are poor, and there's no winning condition, but now that I see people like it, I'm quite probably going to make a complete version. So, pretty much what I'm saying is, thanks, glad you enjoyed the game!
