How does your game fit the theme?
Everyone is used to being the valiant hero, trashing dungeons full of monsters in search of fame and glory, only to reach the final boss hours later. But what is that boss doing the whole time he's waiting around for the hero to show up? Now you can experience the other side as you train for your inevitable showdown!

Music is what I love the most about game. Really nice!
This is brilliant! Amazing game!
I absolutely loved your music! I also liked the little minigames. The art is really goofy and I love it.
How dare the hero try to steal Goblina! D;
Nice story, and great song but a bit short, funny concept ! :D
Funny thing! (And great song!) I enjoyed it very much.
Would bug out sometimes but otherwise it's a really fun and quick game! Love the concept as well.
Really fun short game!
Great song! Great animations xD
I encountered a bug occasionally where I couldn't type in the Diary but once I got over that I beat that hero!
While writing this comment, I still have a smile on my face. You must be a fun person to create such a humorous game. But why would the hero run away with a female orc? If there is a sequel, Will the female protagonist be changed to a troll??!
Love is blind! :D
Amazing, hands down some of the best audio in the games I've tried XD Really enojyed this one!
Wow the training montage is just epic! Very funny game, really enjoyed it. Good job!
I played this game at first and lost. I gave up. Then I came back after hearing about 2 endings. I ike this game a lot more after beating it. GG!
Best storytelling game on the jam. I've been crying while playing. That's great
Very funny concept! The music and story caught me off guard :)
I laughed very loudly when forgetting Goblina. Great concept and very funny!
I was NOT expecting that. Thanks for this x)
funny stuff. the song was epic.
loving the humor in this one! had to go back and see what happens if i don't train at all, haha. are there just two endings, or should i keep trying for more?
i had some trouble with the diary part. eventually i figured out that i needed to match capitals and lowercase with what was written, not just the text itself. but even after that, i would be typing too fast for the game and have to go back and mash a letter that had gotten skipped over. other than that though, this game works very smoothly! i'd love to see this in the style of something like warioware, where the minigames are shuffled and they get progressively harder til you lose. great job, and hilarious work
Our original plan was exactly that but the 48 hours really creeps up fast!
i thought that might be the case, but didn't want to presume. yes, the deadline is super tight! lol
Haha very funny! Loved it, wish it went on longer!
Hilarious! Some excellent laughs in there, and an art style that really matches the vibes you're going for here.
Love the mini-games: simple, but enough diversity to carry the full experience.
The Diary Writing game didn't work for me; I tried to push buttons on the keyboard, but nothing I pushed was responding. As a result, I did lose Goblina, but I grew as a goblin from the experience.
