This one was really fun, and I love the character design on this. I just wish I could figure out Level 9, because I tried everything and nothing seemed to work.
Love this one! Very well made graphics and music, and great level design. It actually reminds me a bit of my own game. My only complaint is that some time it isn't clear whch path the knight will take. This gets particularly complicated when the rat comes into play.
Great Game !
The Levels are challenging and Fun. The Sound and the Style fits very well.
Good Job!
Really enjoyable game. Feels like a fully fleshed out game which you don't always see in Game Jams.
Like others have said mouse support would really make the game. At least for me, I feel like a mouse would be easier to use. Good job on the tileset, it's very crisp looking. The little playable character and skeletons feel a bit out of place in comparison though, being taller than the rest of the tiles.
Your team did a swell job, hope to see a post jam version. Keep up the good work. :) - Deer.
the game got very real after level 1 , awesome job with music and seems polished :)
Great job !
The game is amazing and I absolutly love it
but these are the little nitpicks I have:
I kinda wish I could just use the mouse since there were several times I wanted to click something and the cursor moved too slowly
the pause screen could have been a bit more transperent so it will be easier to look at the stage and think
A lovely puzzle game, with an original gameplay. Everything is polished and feels smooth! Nice to see a Monogame based game in here. Congratulations, it is really well done!
the graphics are delightful, I love the cartoony characterization on every element. The mechanics help with the characterization too, giving every character its own personality. Its positively heart melting!
There's a surprisingly beefy amount of content too, from the looks of it. I couldn't beat level 9 but I imagine that there was a well fleshed out campaign. This is very nice!
this artstyle brings me back to the old days, nostalgic vibe kicking back in, thanks man!
A little tedious at times, but I really like the idea, art and music design.
