You were all set to get into heaven, but it looks like there's something in the way. Explore a massive procedurally-generated dungeon to find a weapon strong enough to defeat your Bat-Enemy!
There's no audio, so feel free to put on some music while you play.
I apologize in advance for how poorly this fits the theme. I was originally planning a much more interesting procedural weapon system, but I ran out of time. Hopefully you still enjoy the game!
UPDATE I posted a new version with slightly modified combat (increased minimum hit testing distance for enemies from 10 pixels to 25). The original Jam version is still available below.
CONTROLS Click the mouse to move around and attack things!
interesting mechanics and art style, wish there was more of it. also, probably a debug thing but it'd awesome if changing level by right-clicking would affect the gameplay as well! :)
Very much liked the graphic style, felt retro, and the attack animation was on point. In agreement, I would have liked a little more direction, I'm all for the "figure it out dealio," but I personally feel better with a tangible goal or direction.
I like how you managed to get a dungeon crawer feel going on, and that there isn't much if any hand-holding happening. It's fun to discover things on your own, I think there's a lot of potential to be had!
Hack and slash roguelite? This is my kind of game.
I was pleasantly surprised to discover a new type of weapon on floor 5, up until then I wasn't sure if I was just looking for a bigger sword. I made quick work of the boss with the charm I found, although I'm not sure if there were an alternative weapons I could find.
Animations were simple but attacking felt great, loved the subtle particle effects.
The only mechanics suggestion that I think would really help would be showing some indication of what your mouse is over by highlighting the target. Some of the click hitboxes felt a little finicky.
I like that there's no tutorial. Or, well, I would like to know that you click to attack, but I liked that you have to figure out that the jellies are health potions.
Hell I like the whole game. It's a bit tricky to fight the big bat by just spam clicking, I don't know if there's a better way but it got the job done eventually. I guess I don't know -why- you went with clicking-does-everything, but I appreciate the consistency.
I like the art style but the combat system was a little difficult sometimes, enemies aspd was crazy too. Not really seeing an unconventional weapon but I like the idea overall.
Wow, this game has multiple weapons, monsters, heal potions and a lot of rooms. It even has a mini map. Cool adventure game, thank you for making this.

Great work!
