WOW, i really like the 3d models. The sound has a pirate vibe but i like it. 

The game is fantastic, go on.

The game is really difficult

Developer

Thank you!! I don't have much experience with combat systems/difficulty balancing but I've been working on making it a lot fairer for the post-jam version :)

Overall nice game. How do you manage something like this in only 72 hours?

Developer

Years of experience & lots of jams! :)

Extremely impressive work! Combat is simplistic but the fun exploration and progression make up for it. Going up stairs is pretty hard tho :p

Thanks, kind of my first time with a combat system! Totally, it's definitely more suited to those larger open areas :)

For the time we had I think you did an outstanding job! Congratulations! I had several frame drops, but I think it's because of the webgl build tbh lol. But overall I loved it! In the shop the only thing I would change is the color of the buy button. I tried to click the item to buy it several times lol. I appreciate the sensitivity option, at first the camera was all over the place haha. 

Great job!!

Thank you! I also noticed it in the web build even after some optimisations but that's jams for you! Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep that in mind going forward :)

Dope stuff man, really like the combat system. one concern is the mixing of close quarters/narrow hallways  and a third person camera. Overall really solid stuff

Developer(+1)

Thanks a ton, anton! I definitely agree about a lot of the corridors being way too narrow, because of the time I just ended up using that demo level but going forward I want to support multiple levels and have them much more open :)

Impressive work! The only thing missing is a lock-on feature since kiting monster is tricky.

Developer

Thank you! I agree, that's a great idea :)

The camera is a bit hard to manage, but rest of the game makes a really nice dungeon crawler.

Developer

Thanks a lot! Never really done any third person stuff before so it was a learning experience :)

Thx ;)

Cool game! I really liked the feeling of getting stronger and stronger slowly but surely. The art is also amazing! btw at one point, I somehow glitched into a wall. Overall great game!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! I haven't had that issue but I applaud you for breaking it :)

Nice 3D - Style - reminds me a bit of Fable 2 :-) 

Great work - maybe we see us on the Podium-Places :-D

Developer

Thanks! I didn't think about that but you're right, now that you say it I see the resemblance :)
