Torture and Ascension

Im not good enough to complete it, but I had fun. good work!

Hell yeah. This is very good. Super polished, restrained. I really have no critique. Also very thankful that the intro only plays once (the intro is great though).

I just beaten the game, and great job! I would love to see a mobile build with swipe controls!

I tried quite a few times. I'm guessing there's no beating the last one?

Sometimes the simple games are the most fun. Nice work!

Very tight, nice work. I could see this scaling up to NecroDancer sized levels for sure

Love to see grid based action games. Difficulty curve is a little steep but overall this is good :)

Hello! I've finished the game, I liked to tryhard it. I have some weak points to highlight. The game is a bit static, maybe some squash and stretch could be enough. I think it would be better with a good music to put you in the mood. Anyway the concept is really cool.

This is a simple concept executed very well. Not a lot to complain about. The script could use another pass (it's spelled 'soldier' where I'm from) and some sort of an endless mode would be cool since, as it is, there's not much of a reason to continue playing after you beat it, which takes about 5 minutes. The fact that I want to continue playing it, though, is something that not many other LD games achieve. Great work.

:) Very fun! Simple mechanic, but very well executed and a lot of fun to play. I like the ominous voice sound effect, and the spikes and blocks sounds are good too. Very nice pixel animations. Nice game!

Really nice for a 10h game! The graphical aspect is simple and efficient, sounds are balanced, everything is fine. I have exactly the same "complaints" as @quinn-patrick though, there's a typo on "soldier", and an endless mode (or different challenges with color palette changes ?) could be nice. Your little game feels very polished, even if it really short. I've enjoyed it!

Really nice. I wanted more. You really nailed the mood on this one.

Nice entry. A nice soundtrack in the background would have made it even better. Other than that solid game for 10 hours. Keep it up!

Only 10 hours? This is fantastic. Simple concept that's well executed. Feels like this game would go really well with music timed to the beat. And perhaps making it even longer with more difficulty, and a checkpoint-style system that let you continue close to where you left off when you die. Great stuff!

Really nice game. Was a lot fun to play and surely not too easy. For 10h this looks super polished.

Simple, yet fun to play :slight_smile: Challenging, but not impossible, loved it :slight_smile:
