I really liked the graphics but as others have said the controls were a bit odd.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
In this game your character throws potions that have random effects like duplicating an enemy or making it bigger and as the level progresses your character gets scared and throws potions more frequently so the level becomes very chaotic.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all the code was made by us, and all the assets were made from scratch, the only piece of art that we didn't make was the main menu music, that came from a bundle we bought.

The game’s graphic is very good! I think it’s better to add a health bar above the knights. Overall, it’s a good game.

Chaos WeeklyGreat visual style for this game! The controls weren't my favorite though, usually spacebar is used for jump instead of the W key so that would make things a little smoother. And man those potions were chaotic haha. No idea why the character kept throwing them but it would be nice if bread popped up more often to chill him out.
Best of luck in the jam! Would appreciate if you checked out our game too.

Run out of ChaosThe game looks very good and the sound is great too. I can understand where some of the commenters are coming from that the controls feel a little off, but I think they're fine, especially for a game jam game.
Exploring the effects of the various potions is definitely fun (and chaotic, too, which is obviously good). With more enemy variety and a little more varied level design, I could definitely see this being a very enjoyable game!

Bomby ZombyIts a bit.... chunky? Having the jump on W makes moving around harder, and the knife hardly ever works. Sound design is good, and graphics look great. Just needs some polish. Keep it up!

Tornado AlleyNo need to panic, the potions are panicking to potion your panic!
This game could really use some polish but other tahn that...
One problem would be that the potions aren't chaotic enough... I never really felt in danger altough that is probably just me.
I will most certanly play this again.

Magic MayhemI think the potion throwing needed to start at a slower pace. I really liked the concept but felt the gameplay needed to be a bit more forgiving at the start and then get faster once the player has mastered the controls. I also really liked the music.

Dawn Of Chaosi like the visuals a lot :)
the gameplay is fun but counterintuitive, since fighting the enemies once your just throw up potions is punished by having to fight even more enemies. I think decreasing the timer just a little would balance it enough such that fighting enemies with the small sword is still viable without making it too easy.
