First game I made for Ludum Dare. Hope you like it and comment if you have the time.

EDIT: Link now works.

I made a mistake when posting on itch. Accidentaly posted it as private instead of public game. I'm very sorry about that and hope you can play it now!

EDIT 2: I tried fixing the blue slime error and I think I did. Yesterday I rushed to post the game so I didn't test it at all that's why there were errors. I updated the download file and it is now called version 1.0.1. The error appeared very rarely for me during testing (about once in about every 10 test plays) and now it didn't appear at all. I will continue the testing and see if there are any more errors (I hope there aren't). Thanks for reporting the error messages, they helped me a lot.

Also, not many people have realized that there is a dash mechanic (which you have to unlock).
You can get it if you have 7 full lives then click on the icon in the middle of the map. Once you do that you can press "C" on your keyboard to dash.

That is the reason the game is called Heart Sacrifice. You have to sacrifice your health to be able to get dash ability thus the gameplay feels faster and also it's way easier to dodge enemy fireballs. Originally, I was supposed to make a statue in the middle instead of that icon but I didn't have time to do so since I didn't work on the first day of the jam, only on the second and third.
