Very cool concept and game plays really nice. One thing that is missing for me is getting feedback when you hit the "player". Great job!
I read in the comments that you made this game alone :"0 Wow, really great-great job! It was funny for me to slay these little dudes, I was SO angry when they punched the main hero's legs -- they had to be stomped on, grrrr! I did not put a lot of "creativity" stars for the game as the idea of a boss/villian slaying little heroes is not new to me, but it was presented in a cool way)
Fun idea! Consistent enemy healths like red means one health blue means 2 health and red means three health or something may make things more streamlined :)
Nice job making a full playable game alone! :D
I liked the concept, especially when I started the game I was like, what should I do? And then I saw the little thingy on the ground hitting me with its little bow and I was like "OK so this is how a boss feels" xD
The feature I missed the most was some audio/visual feedback when I hit the enemies!
Thanks for the game!
I like the concept and hand fight animations! The combat is too simple unfortunately, it would be great to have some restoring abilities. There is also lack of information like how many enemies I got to kill.
I like it, really felt like a big boss, adding more juiceness to the impact of things would make it great.
