Pretty cool! I really liked the simplistic yet stylish art style.

I like the possible 8x8 size spites and the dungeon/maze setting. Made me think of slightly of the 1980s Adventure on Atari 2600. The only thing I found a bit confusing was the restarting in what seemed like random positions after hitting an enemy.

the dungeon changes after you get hit

A nice little game with a twist, personally i would say the weapon sprite is a little bit small and the attack animation is not obvious and and the weapon sprite also rotate around  the player in a weird way, but in the end i guess it doesnt really get it the way to play and enjoy the game.

Would definitely like to have a auto restart once you are dead though, easier to retry ur game.

Good game nonetheless.

Nice simple dungeon game would be nice to collect every sword u pick up to store in inventory

Developer

That ruins the game though as storing every weapon means that there's no risk reward by dying to evolve your weapon.

The tutorial screenshots have a Windows watermark that made me lol for no apparent reason!

The tutorial said dying is encouraged which made me think that I’d only lose if I died to the boss… guess not! haha

Would have liked a way to go back to the main menu, restarting the page made the whole game load again :(

Good stuff tho!

Developer

Yeah I definitely should have  added that you would die if you got killed by the boss. The stuff you mentioned was all things I planned on adding but wasn't able to (I lost a day due to my family having an unexpected trip). Thank your for the feed back though!

Nice simplistic art style I like it a lot. I think this game has a lot of ways it could go with the weapons and abilities and i love the way you used the theme! really cool entry! =D

Developer

thank you!

A nice neat little game, well done! I would have loved some extra abilities like a dash or something because those darn snowmen were a nightmare to try and dodge! Maybe a health system might have felt more forgiving too. I thought it's a really cool concept though and a great base to build on - ranged weapons, abilities - there's so much stuff you could do here. Amazing job with this, keep it up!

Developer

thank you!
