Great music. I felt deja-vu while when talking to character in the first scene. Also the pokemon-type battle is my favorite mechanic. It was a fun experience. 당신을 응원 !

Developer

Thanks a lot!

I liked the art and the inception-like story. The music was also pleasing. I wish you could make the battles go faster and skip the words of what happened.

Developer(+1)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind

Wow! I really liked the whole atmosphere of the game and the combat was really interesting. I agree with others that a health bar could help, but at the same time not knowing how the enemy is doing adds to the tension.

Developer

Thank you

Great game. Rated it. I don't know why nobody has played it yet. The graphics are good and it relates to the theme. Pls check out my game as well if you dont mind - https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1418152

Thanks

This is my favourite game of this jam so far! I really like the different strategies in the three boss attacks. Would have liked to see their HP too though, was really nervous at the last one hahah. But I really like the graphics and sound design. Great work here!

Developer

Thank you so much

Amazing game! the art and music are amazing and I love how everything changes when you go through it the second time, where the music gets all glitchy and the NPCs all break. only issue was I wish you could see the bosses health so it would be easier to say hen to attack and when to heal

Very funny game, cool croc and the evil sign posts were wonderful. Beat the crab with 6hp left, wish i knew how much health it had, but that didnt stop me from bodying him. Great stuff

Developer

Thanks for playing

You did all of this by yourself?! This is honestly impressive! My favorite character in this game is Cool Croc. I love the combat system in this game, it reminded me of pokemon. I managed to defeat both the giant crab and the ghoul. It's still insane to me how you created all this by yourself, what a brilliant game!

Developer

Thank you very much

I really liked the options within combat - it was fun to figure out what they each did. Well done!

Developer

Thank you

Was not expecting my character to be so ripped! Loved the pacing and art style. Good stuff!

Developer

Thanks!

This was a fun slice of weird, but I would definitely suggest moving action off of the ctrl key since I accidentally closed the tab with ctrl+W at one point lol

Also the creature design is super good!

Developer

Thank you. I didn't even think about browser shortcuts, thanks for the suggestion.

Submitted(+1)

That was... really surreal. Well done.

Loved the art. Control scheme was a bit odd though, and I feel like the player moved a little fast.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback.

What beastly creatures you've dreamed up! They're positively monstrous!

I love it.

Developer

Thanks!

Nice game, very unsettling. Health bars would be great, because like this the fights went on for pretty long and got a bit repetetive. A way to skip the dialog a bit faster would have been great too. Also I didn't have a seperate screen for the fighting, so I had two crabs on the screen, but that could be a bug :D

Developer

Thanks, agreed about the health bars. There is a bug in fullscreen where the battle background image doesn't render. Not sure why.

Submitted(+1)

I think i ran into a bug. Basically if i spammed ctrl in battle scenes i could just keep attacking before the enemy does their turn.

Developer

Yea, I found the same bug on the last day of the jam and didn't have time to fix it.

Submitted(+1)

Good gameplay and graphics. I wish there was health bars, but the actions felt impactful during the fights.

Developer

Thanks so much. Seems most people agree healthbars would be good here.

Wow this game looked beautiful I can't believe you totally made it! It's really a great start to an awesome game, super impressive you did this in a week! Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much
