I like the cute visuals and sounds. :) Although you decided on a classic interpretation of the theme. Too bad time had the upper hand on you!

And you can even jump on the boss! ;)

This was fun for me, even if it was played for only a minute at most.
I didn't realize that you could shoot at first, so I was trying to play it slow and trying to explore the map.
But once I learned how to shoot, I also quickly learned that you can spam shoot, which made quick work of the enemy.
For some reason, this quick battle made me smile : )

Congrats on completing the jam !

It is really good to know that we created fun at least for a moment for you! To be honest, we started to develop the game in last day, so we couldnt  manage to balance the game and implement proper UI. We were thinking to create fast paced and diffucult levels but we were out of time :/

Thank you for your comment!

Good job delivering a playable game to the jam!

I guess the "Game over" screcen works for both victory and defeat, right?

Thanks for your comment. To be honest, we were out of time and we had to upload the game before the deadline. Actually there was a restart button but it misbehaved in last check. So we couldnt add restart option and victory - defeat screen :( 

It is really good to know that you played our game even we couldnt serve it perfectly. I apprecite your comment! You can add me in discord so we could give feedback to our works! semiramist#2263

By the way, I checked your profile and I saw that you developed a game  called "Alea Jacta Est" as well. What a coincidence! I like the idea that using dices as a platform element as well as a strong jump position. The level design is really solid and difficulty increases with balance which is very important in game design. Sometimes, I stuck between dice and ground so I had to restart the game even I was so close to pass level.

We had the same issues, running against the clock lol

Thanks for playing our game as well, and thanks for the feedback. We will write your comments down to address this problem of getting stuck in the next update of the game (after the jam) :)
