The Tiny Wizard has cast a spell to make the entire world (except for people) grow! His ultimate aim is to make all of mankind suffer as he has. You, brave knight, have set out to stop him! Collect growth potions to keep up to scale with his army of skeletons and make your way to the top of the tower.
Keyboard Controls--
Arrow keys - move Z key - quaff potion, makes you grow. collect more from barrels X key (+ arrow keys) - dash, passes through and stuns enemies C key - basic attack, does damage relative to your size versus enemies'
I put up a post jam build to add WASD controls and Gamepad support, but it's listed as a second package on Gamejolt. If the cursor controls are frustrating, you can give it a go.
The performance can be bad for some - I've heard that switching from Chrome to Firefox can make a big difference, if you happen to have it. Otherwise, sorry about that!
Very nice graphics. The constant zooming in of the dungeon was irritating as I didn't know at first that I could use potions to grow again because on my German keyboard Z and Y are swapped. After figuring that out it was definitely more fun, but then I entered Level 2 with almost no health left and it didn't refill that after dying so I wasn't able to advance.
Felt like Alice in Wonderland. Except I was freckin'g skeletonsmashin' knight :) Also, I think that maybe discrete steps in gowing up and down could make your game feel less wobbly. P.S. This is a solid entry and needs more promotion :)
Nice idea and it feels polished. I agree that the combat is a bit fiddly. Also, the constant zooming out effect made me feel a bit weesy after a while. I would change that so that there is a countdown bar and then the world size tweens out to be incrementally larger.
This was a really interesting idea, I like it a lot! I definitely agree with the comment above about having the size increment in steps, rather than continuously, it might help with performance as well (less scaling of textures each frame.) Good job!
Nice idea with changing the size of player/world. Would be nice to have some other things hidden in those barrels. The game is running a bit slow for me (Chrome).
Nice concept, and the game looks nice too! I had some issues with the combat - everything became slow when I reached the skeletons and attacks were delayed - so it was hard to fight properly!
