My first Ludum Dare! Only spent 12 hours or so, wasn't thrilled by the theme.

Pretty fun in concept, IMO the game moves a little slow though. I really like the monster sprite and the minimalistic music.

Great game! Would have been better if humans didn't tend to block themselves and if the player wasn't so slow.

Movement feels a little slow to be enjoyable, but I like the delay on the attack!

it was good, a bit slow walking, but had enough speed to corner humans

The attacks feel pretty good, to movement seems to slow.

Things I learned from this game:
-Satan is slow af.
-Satan is a baby face.
-Satan cannot turn around.
-The easiest way to be safe from Satan is to run up a wall because he can't turn around and his smash attack only reaches in front of him.

There's definitely room for improvement, but I like the concept. Move speed was a little frustrating, and players often walked up the walls, where I was unable to get them. Not bad for a 12 hour investment.

Fun game, I really liked it! My only issue is that the little dudes can run to the top of the screen which makes them impossible to smash. Liked the art style a lot!

Hey! Thanks for making a game.

What we liked -
The animation of the main character was really nice, the attack animation feeled solid and was helped by the sound design. The music fitted the atmosphere of the game nicely. The game was also on theme well.

What could be improved -
The little guys were too fast and your character moved too slow. They got stuck on walls quite a lot and a few times managed to move offscreen which is frustrating.

I found the guys with shields and swords a little inconsistent in their dying...

Graphics and sound were good, but the pace was a little slow...

I like this twist on Tower Defense. A bit slow, but kind of cute.

I wish there was a way to kill the guys who run to the top. Also, the guys who set the traps were obnoxiously hard to get to, and it got tedious. I wasn't sure if there was an ending because I stopped trying after a certain point.

The sound effects were harsh, but I like the mood set by the music.

the gameplay could be funnier if the monster was moving a little faster.
