In the depths of the mind stands the castle. In the castle live good dreams. Nightmares are trying to destroy it. Protect it. You have random things. It is a weapon, use them for defence. Good luck!
This is a great game! Well done! My only issue is I think the old phone stopped working in the middle of a level. It would kill trolls with one hit at first then it wouldn't later in the level. Great work! Keep it up!
Really strong theming and graphics, I like 80s DOS aesthetic and hideous palette. I didn't find the gameplay particularly interesting but you kept me for 5 rounds because I wanted to know what all the different item types were. I liked how the function of each item was not immediately apparent until you used it.
This is excellent. I loved the variety of surprising weapons & enemies. The way things are presented via treasure chests and inventory screens is droll.
The color choices are a little sadistic but OK for this short game. I dig the Spectrum style.
pretty interesting game! i thought the color choice was neat. the different weapons were nice, though the phone never worked right for me so i never used it, and since there were only 6 weapon options i didnt really have trouble choosing 5. Otherwise i thought it was fun! my score was 66563.
The game runs well, I found using the items abit fiddly, perhaps if you had a way to have an item selected so that each click would use that item, as opposed to dragging it onto the screen. Overall a great idea with the use of many unconventional weapons
Good job! Love how the punk visuals fit the slanted humour. I was compelled to complete the stages to find out what the next weapon did.
The controls in the battle itself were a little cumbersome (at least with my trackpad). I would have like hotkeys for the weapons and an explicit cooldown counter.
Nice idea to use the map- a quick and efficient way to create a sense of place and progress.
Conrastulations, you won! One of my favourite games of the jam. So simple, yet well executed and very fun to play. The weapons had nice variety, enough so that there was actual strategy in using them. Good job!
Amusing game. Simple concept but works pretty well. Nice use of the old CGA style palette, perhaps you should have kept the resolution at 320x200 for added authenticity! Good stuff overall.
Really cool game-especially the content of it. I liked the fact that you could choose your weapons and that they each had unique powers (though I felt the shovel was a little too good and the mushrooms just bought you some time), mainly because that isn't something I have seen anywhere else. However, the lack of music hurt the feeling of the game and the art really could have used a bit more time/detail.
I'm impressed! Very nice game-play, had nostalgic feel to it, cool drawings. Wish it didn't restart from the beginning when I died, but I guess I shouldn't die :)

Nice palette by the way...
ooh and the might old phones
good work!
Really nice game. Excellent fit to the theme and great game overall. Not a big fan of the graphics but it worked.
My only issue is I think the old phone stopped working in the middle of a level. It would kill trolls with one hit at first then it wouldn't later in the level.
Great work! Keep it up!
the color palette made me a bit nostalgic :)

The dragging mechanic is a bit tiresome, wish you could just click the ground to place it.
Some noises would have been nice, but I had fun playing too.

Cool game though!
