Awesome entry! Hard as hell too, but it really felt like a retro game. Great job!
One of my favorite Jam games. The gameplay, graphics and audio were all great, felt like an indie game I'd find on Steam. Would have loved to see more if it, had a great time figuring out boss patterns, and also liked that the bosses didn't hurt you on contact but only when they landed moves.
Great effort. A 5/5 from me. :)
Very well done enjoyable gameplay. The controls weren't initially intuitive but later got the hang of it.
Best game out of all in my opinion :)
Nothing more
This is great craic :). Unfortunately I struggled with the controls (left handed) and could not get passed the hound of Culainn. Looks very true to the myth of Setanta.
I want to go further to see where it goes.
Thanks for playing! You can use the arrow keys or the w/a/s/d keys to move, so hopefully that helps. (controllers are also supported)

VERY FUN! This was a short enough game but aside from that it was really enjoyable. The music was great and the visuals were charming. The gameplay was smooth and the sliothar conrtrolled very well. The story as also cute and offered a very nice shred of Irish mythological history. The athmosphere was also impressive and if turned into a full game this could surely become an indie success! Good job hermano, a great performance overall. 4/5 stars at least.😎
