Interesting concept, I like the level design and graphics and especially the blood splatter., would have preferred sound in your game!
the sword spinning was a little iffy for me, i would have preferred the sword to face the cursor, and then when you move it, it will swing.
Thanks for playing! At start I made sword always face mouse and because of this time mechanic didnt work. It feeled too easy and not fan at all🤷♂️
So satisfying when you slay those crabs. The art is cool. I really like the concept, so creative. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! Glad I satisfied your murderous needs😊😊😊
Wow! Its very hard! But i like it! Good luck!
I only now realised that I made eggs to spawn crabs twice faster that intended 🙈🙈🙈 But its still fun, right?😅 thanks for playing!
Fun game, i enjoyed the combat/weapon controls, unique & challenging. wish the movement speed was static though. Great game nice work!
its kinda static, but because of time mechanic you need a litle slow down at start adn end of movement so it all feels smooth. Anyways thanks for playing!
This was AWESOME, the screenshots do not do it justice. The pixel art is so precise here and the gameplay feels really really tight. Enemies moving only when you move is such an underexplored mechanic imo, the swinging sword was such a nice play too. Each level felt really different, I couldn't wait to see the next one. The story was funny too.
Thanks for playing! There isnt much story really😅 Im glad you liked it :)
I loved this game, that the game moves only when you move, the checkpoints, the particles, everything.
It can be improved a lot with sound effects and music. good job
Thank you very much! Im glad you liked it :)
Wow great game! i really like the art but the screen are too small for me XD ! :)
Thanks! I think mobile port will be bad idea because of this :)
Another rage game :-D Fun and tedious!
I didn't think it was that difficult🙈🙈 For me it is very simple :)
Very nice game! I liked the death effect for the crabs, very satisfying. great job!
Thanks! <3
Simple and fun! Great job in this game! <3
Thanks! <3
Woahhh!! The game was amazing...
The player asset is cute and the level design is quite simple with makes it a soothing experience for the player.
Loved the game<3
Good luck with the jam. Hope you enjoy other games in the jam too<3
Thanks so much! There are actually a lot of great games this jam and I really enjoy some of them! :D
THIS WAS SO FUN!! The spinning sword mechanic + time stop is so clever, I really love it!! It was kinda hard for me to understand it and the sword itself was really hard to control, but I think that might be part of the experience. The art is great too! This was so fun!!
Thanks!! Im glad you enjoyed it! :D
Stunning game! Great idea and engaging game!
Thank you very much! <3
This is hella cool, I loved my time with this one. As others noted, some sound would be good, but that doesn't deter from just how awesome this game is. Great stuff!
Thanks so much!! <3
hey, a non-grid-based DROD is a super fun idea! some of these swings can be really satisfying. however, the lack of precision or certainty in how anything will respond does make everything considerably more frustrating. swinging your sword only to push a crab perfectly safely to your flank and what not. gets very fiddly. i still deeply appreciate this!
The idea was to swing the sword hard to kill the crab. I tried to repeat the effect when the crabs will bypass your sword if you do not move it, so the collision sometimes behaves strangely... I will try to make it better after jam ends.
Thanks for playing the game! I am glad that at least someone knows what DROD is ! I discovered it last week and now I am addicted to it🙈
I liked the style a lot but it’s a shame the lack of sounds or some background music or step effects. With little additions you could improve the feel a lot!
I agree, I had just not enough time :( I Think after jam ends I will add sounds + more levels :)
