Cult Of the Сelestial Knight

Wow, very nice game! The graphics are pretty crazy, despite the small 72 hours available! A bit short, and if I lose the game doesn't seem to restart on its own. But it was really cool!

The game is Cool! But some places there are shortcomings. Overall I liked it.

The graphics and sound effects are amazing, top tier!
The first time I got to the scythe timing game, I didn't know how it worked and failed, maybe a small hint would be good.
Also think the Theme could've been used better, since the wind blowing exactly every 10 seconds takes the surprise out of it.
All in all great fun.

Nice Idea!

Wow such a nice idea and the graphics are wonderful! Great Job! Well done :)

fantastic art and mood !
Unfortunatly i cant pass the first battle :/ i dont understand how to play the fight

I like the theme and the artwork, the process is a little short but well done!

The game looks and sounds great. The fighting was a little bit confusing at first.

The graphics are amazing, audio mix was a tad loud. Could not understand the battle though.

Pretty entry!

This game is sooooo beautiful!
That's an amazing work!

I failed a lot during battle phase because I didn't understood how it works.
After many attempts, I managed to understand it and I crush those demons!

Well done!

Really nice job. I loved the artstyle, which one of you was responsible? The sound effects and overall mood were great as well!

Here's my feedback:
- A restart button or shortcut would be convenient.
- The final boss is too easy.
- As nilolo said, a hint for the scythe timing game would help because it's a bit confusing at first.
- The game could use a visual or sound effect when you get hit.

Looks great!

@chaikadev @phillip-scott @balduin @roroto-sic @nilolo Thank you for playing and pointing out the lack of training in combat. We added a little tutorial to make it easier for people to understand how to play)

This is a very cool graphics, I especially liked the art style. I really appreciate it in games, as well as how they respect their style everywhere in the game. Even the style reminded me Don't Starve. Gameplay hit theme every 10 seconds good! You don’t even notice it right away, it’s done well and smoothly :smile:

I would actually play this if the game was put up on Steam. Btw the nun is :heartbeat: :sweat_smile:

The colour palette is the key, living for it.

Really cool art style - the game looks absolutely great!

I have really bad rythm but the game looks incredible

I love C.O.C.K.!

Really nice graphics!!reminded my a bit of darkest dungeon :D in the most positive wayyy

Loved the graphics! Darkest Dungeon close-up!

Loved the graphics and the designs of the characters. I was a tad confused by the fight mechanics but once I realised what I was supposed to be doing it was a cool way to have the battle. I would say adding a restart or a retry button would be nice as I had to refresh the page upon a win/failure. I would have liked it to be a bit longer maybe with more bosses or maybe just a more challenging game, but I think for a game jam project it's a great example.

Everything about this is incredible! I loved all the spooky creatures, and wow there was a lot of variety with them too. There's so many details in the artwork, and everything looks fantastic! The ambient noises set the mood perfectly, and I had a great time playing.

I recorded myself playing, and I mentioned it in the recording, but there should be a button to return to the title screen from both winning and losing the game. I don't want to refresh the page, you know?

Anyway, here's the recording I made so you can have more feedback!

Nice, moody game with great art! I appear to be too smooth-brained to figure out how to do the combat mini games, but super cute nun so 10/10.

So good art design !!! she has very nice looking legs~~~ but I can restart my game after I dead ,,is this a bug or just me,,,this is my top 5 game mood this in this jam ,,well done man

i love the art,

Nice graphics and i like the idea. The gameplay is various and make sense with the graphics. The sound design can be better but overall the game is very good like that !!!!!! Good job.

Cool art style! This game really makes you feel like you are a very strong nun

This game looks absolutely amazing (even the Nuns tattoo on her leg ;P)! I enjoyed the gameplay of guarding the candle, chasing demons away, and fighting demons. The character designs are just incredible wow:D Superb work! It's fantastic!! Thank you for a fun experience! :D

@r3d3r Thanks for playing :) hope you had a great time with our game

Looks fantastic. Definitely confusing controls. Even with the tutorial it took a bit to understand what the game was asking me to do.

nice art reminds me the darkest dungeon！and it is hard！（check our game too！）

Cool art and nice and simple gameplay! I first thought that the dagger attack gameplay was weird and unintuitive but after couple rounds I found myself liking it a lot. I don't know what your plans are but it would be nice to see further levels and maybe some improvements on the dagger fight system :D
Overall nice short game!

I looove the art ! The gameplay is not easy to understand but it's funny thought !

Yooo what a great game! The art and animations are AMAZING, especially the nun. Gameplay was very intuitive and super fun. I think a huge part of the fun was actually the quality of the nun animations. It just felt really really good to press A and D! Combat wasn't super obvious but is quickly solved. The first sound effect you encounter is quite jarring because it was quite loud and there was no sound at all previously, so one is not sure to even expect sound at all. Overall amazing entry with excellent amount of polish. Definitely feels like a very complete game! Well done.

Very strong graphics with unique gameplay. Loved your entry, good job!

Absolutely phenominal artwork, really impressive. I love the sound design too of the little enemy jumpscares haha. The battle was a bit confusing at first but then I understood it after a couple of goes. Good job!

pretty fun game! Artsyle looks awesome, congratulations!

the graphics are incredible, I think that's the strongest point of this game. Good job!

The art style is god. The gameplay is a bit rustic, but fun. There is little feedback when I die, and also the game keeps running behind the screen (I know from the sounds). But, overall, is good. Nice work!

The game is fantastic.

Fun game ! Made it through at the first run ! :)

By the way your ldjam link on your itch.io page is wrong. It's pointing to your edit page and so give a 403 error and not this page.

Very beautiful arts. Mood like Dark is dungeon. Is really cool!

@pndaa Thanks for noticing and letting us know. And thanks for the nice words about the game too)

5/5 The artstyle is superb! Really cool mood feeling's as well!

Win! Art style and animation are stunning. Props to you for making a really simple gameplay with intuitive controls, and a solid visual/auditive experience.

I found that the battles grew increasingly easier due to the enemies throwing several attacks at you, and clicking when the candles was underneath several would count as a double attack/defence. Does not get in the way, the satisfaction of winning is still there ahah.

Great looking game! The combat system could have been tuned a bit more though. The rest of the game was really good though.

Great game! Art is incredible!

10/10 Art style

Cool game! I like it!

Great game! Gameplay, art, tutorial, everything turned out cool.

Really liked it, art is cool but gameplay could be even better. I hope you had fun creating your game, I enjoyed playing it :)

Missing music there, but I like the mood, and gameplay. It was pretty fun! Made my win on 2nd try!
Thanks for this experience!

Can't fathom what a nun has to endure on a daily basis. Nice insight! Amazing graphics! Looks like Darkest Dungeon. I didn't understand the fighting at first, but on my third attempt I got it down. I guess at 10 seconds the wind was blowing? (edit: I now read the description - it does) Also I only used "A". Never did the wind blew from a different direction (I believe that was "D" for). Nice entry!

Very cool art and mood! I made it on my second try, the tutorial is a nice addition but I still bungled the combat thing on my first try because I didn't actually look at it and thought you had to click on the health bar thingy rather than match the daggers. The sound effects are also pretty spoopy, I liked the sound design despite the lack of music. I have to praise the art again though, it looks like a commercial game. Great job!

very cool art style.

Short but good game! :D

The artworks are awesome and the atmosphere is very fitting.

But what kind of creepy face is that in the background?!

Please integrate a restart button at game over and when you win ;)

Absolutely beautiful artwork, well done! I liked the dark atmosphere, and the sound effects were thematic and really aided the experience. Great work!

Did not catch how it fits the theme

Love the artstyle and the designs, they're really cool. Didn't get too far unfortunately, the gameplay wasn't super intuitive and restarting became too much of a chore after a while. Also, the lack of music brings down the mood a bit (a tip is to use a royalty free track if you don't have access to a composer). Great job however, this is a really cool game if not a bit unpolished.

Really like the way the "fights" are done, simple but works. The art and animations are top-notch, everything looks great! Like others have mentioned a restart button would have been appreciated. Managed to get through on my second attempt, well balanced!

Amazing art. The combat mechanic is cool. Very fun game!

The art is amazing, and the design in general is clear and intuitive. (Also, I'm sucker for a good nun design... it's a bad *habit* I have.)

Having a restart button at the gameover would've be nice, and was confused on if you hold A/D toward the wind or not for a bit.

The idea wa amazing I loved the Art but it would be nice if you add a retry button because if you lose you need to restart the game and thats a little meh.
Anyways the theme was really gorgeous but at the time of attacking I struggled a bit trying to understand how to beat the enemies.

Great aesthetics! Amazing atmosphere! Good job, guys! :smiley:

Interesting concept. The graphics are beautiful and the sound is functional. The mood of the game is very good. The gameplay is functional. I was a little confused about what to do during combat, but I believe I managed to play anyway. Good job.

Love the art, nice game
