Fun but also hard! :anger: I really liked the way you attack.

Its a pretty fun game, but I couldnt play it for too long because of the hit sound, its a bit straining. I found the game quite enjoyable other than that.

Nice looking game! Found myself wanting more and cheaper upgrades, but nice work.

I liked the attacks & dash, I liked the art, but it got pretty hard.

Fun but challenging and I love being able to upgrade my character. I wish you could more money faster since after a short amount of time it gets overwhelming and I barely have the damage to make it through.

Nice work! Fan of the style. Hope you continue to develop it!

Nice game! It feels pretty good and the dash is a nice touch. Also nice attack animation. I think you could decrease the shop prices. The hit sound is a bit startling and loud. Overall, cool game and great entry!

The game feel is nice good snappy controls and great visuals. Maybe better difficulty curve. Solid one.

Fun game! It's pretty hard since there are lots of waves.

Well done on your first game.

As others have said, the difficulty ramps up quite quickly and the upgrades are expensive.

Suggestions for improvement:
Drop health and coins randomly a short distance from the flame. This gives the player the incentive to stop "camping" the flame.

I like the visuals! But I found the game / controls hard!

Good fun game, could do with some tweaks, but that's not the main thing about game jams. This is a really solid submission great job!

I like the color palette and the simplicity of the graphics.

I think it needs more sound and animation feedback for example in the dashing or enemies attacking the flame.

Nice! This is a pretty similar idea to our game as it happens. Fun to play, nice pixel art too.

fun game, but tough. the swing animation is nice. but a little clunky for the pace the game wants you to go at. otherwise good show!

The attack is a little bizarre and the hit noise does get annoying relatively quickly. but the graphics are well done and it is over all an enjoyable game.
RexGame21 Apr 2020, 17:14
Very very hard !
Rodi21 Apr 2020, 17:16
The game is simple but feels great !
Well done ! :D

Feel Free to test my game as well :p

Great game, but very hard! I couldn't get past wave 4, only thing I didn't like is the sword movement.

I loove the fighting feeling, like you throw the sword pretty good, nice work !

Good game, you kept the scope down but had good content. The waves got hard a little too quick. I like the shop and power ups. I do wish the esc key would close the shop window but it wasn't a big deal.

Congrats on your first game! The objective and mechanics are clear, and it's fun to play overall. The difficulty ramps up nicely as expected!

I loved the art in this game and the animations were spot on too. I did find it quite difficult to stop the enemies reaching the flame and couldn't figure out how to buy things from the shop. Maybe a short explanation/tutorial would work well with this.

Amazing first entry. Loved the graphics!

Love the art and the interaction, especially the little shake when you hit an enemy. As others are saying it's hard.

Wow, it is quite difficult right from the beginning! The idea is cool but I think it deserves a better polishing over the difficult curve :)
Michaela Schanes21 Apr 2020, 17:46
Loved the artstyle and that it's so clean! But the hitsound gave me a heartattack lol

Wow, amazing game. Its very hard(I only got to wave 3 myself). Nice graphics too. Adding that shop feature really helped. Overall Great game it was fun!
Rialgar21 Apr 2020, 18:31
Love the art! I made it to wave 5 but died in that one. For me the sword motion was a little weird, I get into details in the video.

See me failing your game :slight_frown:

Thanks a lot for making the video it will help me a lot in my journey to learn Game dev And thanks to all the people that gave me feedback!

this was a lot of fun. It is very complete and has a novel mechanic (moving the sword with your mouse). Those 2 things are what gamejams are all about: finishing something, and being just a little bit experimental. I do think the game is a little unbalanced. The first 2 waves are really easy, but you don't make enough money to buy any upgrades. I got enough money in the middle of the 3rd wave to buy the damage upgrade (and really needed it!) but I didn't have a second to breathe and purchase it. I died right after that. Regardless, it's still a really cool game and a nice entry :)

Great entry for a first jam! I cant wait to see what you do in the future :)
Maybe consider balancing the enemies a little bit better, and adding some more environment art, and sounds?
