I liked how you have to learn the beast's moves and patterns, a bit like in Dark Souls, in order to succeed. By any chance do you have a few crafting recipes that I could do?

Developer

Yes! I did get a bit of inspiration from games like dark souls. Some recipes that I think are useful are the metal tools, bomb, and potion.

Metal axe - stick and metal scrap

Metal sword - metal axe and metal scrap

Bomb - gunpowder and rock

Potion - gunpowder and empty flask

Thank you for trying out the game.

A challenging game, I feel like the player has too small backpack. Otherwise, it's a cool experience.

Developer

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I hope to release a new version after the jam that will include a few fixes such as your request.

Happy to hear that

Ok, was a lot of fun, even though im not really into arena combat games this one was a ton of fun. Kinda reminded me of the Clone Drone In The Danger Zone, not sure why, kinda opposite genres but still.

I love the aestheic, very simplified yet adorable and it just works!

Great work bud, :D

Thank you, I appreciate it!

"Dark Souls with animals.  I don't know if this classifies as animal cruelty, but I just assume that the animals are living in eternal pain and suffering and killing them is doing a favor.  Really good game!"

Haha, that is one way to look at it! Thank you for the review.
