I guess I took luck to another level because I did beat it first try !

The art is good, the gameplay is nice, it is a good first game :)

Some ideas for additions, should you want to improve it further once the jam is done :

• Having health bars would allow the player to make more informed choices, adding strategy to the game
• For the same reason, having a "range" of possible results for each action would be good as well

The art is great, I really like it! The gameplay is fine, but you can definitely add more polish, like attacking animations, what each attack does, etc. Still, good job on completing your first game, I hope you enjoyed the process!

Would love if you can check out my game too. Thanks!

Looks neat and the concept is nice. It gets a bit buggy in the browser when you click too often.
I like the art and you could improve it a lot by just moving the character towards each other while attacking and replace the buttons.  Good job overall!

I think if you had a bit more time it was nice to polish a bit more the game. The art overall is very good

The animation and art in this is incredible! Really well done. 

As for the gameplay, it's a bit barebones, as you note, but it reminds me a bit of a fighting minigame in some ship-based pirate game I can't remember the name of. Some more  indications of what's going on would have been nice (e.g. HP bar at least for the player, some info about what each weapon does, etc.). 

I'll note that "defend" seems pretty meaningless in a random damage situation where you have no way of knowing what the enemy is planning. It basically just delays the turn. (If there were multiple characters or an indication of the enemy's plans, it would be more useful.)

Overall, I liked it, in major part because of the excellent animation. Nicely done!
