I like the concept but i am not sure if i agree with the execution.

I think the view should be bigger for the player as i found it very frustrating when an enemy would pop up in the other side of the screen and not leave me a chance to attack. Also letting the enemies walk over the spikes which take up a good amount of space, leaves no chance for me defend myself unless i go at the very top of the screen which is too risky. I think most of this can be fixed by just increasing the view by a little bit, not even a lot and i think that would really help the game! (just my opinions of course!)

Still, i think it has a solid theme and it is very original! So good job!

Thanks for the suggestions Lubaka!

As for the spikes and walls keeping the player from reaching the enemies we kill any goblins that touch them (not the best approach but works for now) And as for the view we are going to completely change the background and we will change the size of the camera for sure.

We already fixed some bugs but we will update as soon as the voting finishes.

I love the graphics and the idea! But I think some hitboxes are too big especially the fall pits

Thank you Planschi! We noticed that and we already fixed it. Unfortunately we can't update until the end of the voting.
