It was a little hard to understand that you only attack at your mouse, but I really love the graphics!

How does your game fit the theme?
Shamans try to control you and your movement and you are trying to break out of control.

The art direction is solid, and the implementation of the theme is well done. I will say I was only "caught" at the beginning, then the rest was picking off individual huts.
Loved your art style, but like the other commenters i would have liked to see more! Good job though!
The artwork looks fantastic! The gameplay itself could use a lot of work considering you cannot lose/die and the cycle of going from village to village is pretty repetitive (especially since there's no danger). Oh and for some reason the first time I ran the game it instantly threw me to the "You are free" screen.
Visuals are amazing! Found the gameplay to be a bit lacking in terms of the out of control theme. Seems like the shamans only restrain you from moving too far away, but I didnt really have any reason to move that far away from them, so I hardly ever got my controls restrained.
Great visual work, stunning! I liked the more solid idea in relation to the theme, but there were some important elements missing: a tutorial inside the game, a defeat screen (although it is easy to win, many enemies accumulate, your character simply stops the movement), the sound is very repetitive and can be polished, but in general, it is a very fun project, very beautiful, and yes, a great job!
not sure why you had an animation when you attacked, i took me about 5 mins to figure out that the damage was coming from the cursor not the monster, also not sure what the goal is. you did super good with the pixel art tho
I think you nailed the ambience and atmosphere of the game but I think the game play needed a bit more depth in terms of how the people would fight u and deter you and make u run away from them, a little more variety would make the game a lot more interesting to play :P
Thank you very much for the kind words :) Yeah we agree, we had an idea with a few different kinds of enemies each with their own masks and look, and the 'chains' were supposed to work in a different way, but as it is our first game we ended up short on time xD We will update it after the game jam is over :)
Really nice artwork in this one. The audio effects got a bit repetitive when fighting.
The art is amazing! Good work! The lights and sprites are incredible!
About the gameplay, the controls are not particularly clear. I managed to kill many small dudes and to hurt a building, but i did not reach the building destruction. I recommend you to post some extra information.
good job!
This game looks really cool! I love all the lighting effects and the concept is awesome!
