My interpretation of the theme was that you only get one enemy per stage, a boss fight. There are four boss fights in total. You don't get any weapons and have to defeat the bosses using your wits and dexterity. The game has some graphics that were made by Colin Calpurso and some developer graphics I made myself.

Controls:
WASD or arrows keys to move

That was a ton of fun! I really like figuring out how to beat each boss and I like the challenge!

I found a bug, when the mouse it's close to the wall and then it turns into a lion, the lion get stuck and doesn't move.

I love games that require figuring it all out! Good job and thanks!

Took me a depressing amount of time to work out that ball level, time to sleep I think. That Lion was awesome!

It was fun to solve the puzzle of each boss, and even once it was solved it was hard to implement the strategy. Good stuff.

What would've been epic is the "Like a boss" (lonelyisland) song playing in the background! xD
Jk, good stuff you got here!

Interesting approach; I enjoyed figuring out the boss fights without having any weapons.

Nice entry an game mechanics, dexterity is an ability that is rarely to see in a modern game :D

Nelien19 Dec 2013, 09:49

Haha, that was quite entertaining! Nice work!

Very fun and interesting game! Reminds me of dark souls, where you have to discover a strategy to beat a boss and implement it. Very fun!

Unfortunately this would not launch on my computer. It attempts to run but then just closes itself.

Thanks for all the nice comments, I'm glad people had fun playing the game.
@AlexFili I'm sorry to hear that the game didn't run for you, I just tested it again to make sure the link worked. It worked for me so I'm not sure how to fix it.
