Good jazzy music and I liked the graphic assets used. I’ve tried Phaser but never gotten too far… I like that it went fullscreen on startup. Very interesting restriction… I only got to level 5, but I feel like I could go much farther if I always kept the two ogres together and got used to the movement. But it would feel like cheating, probably. You could use some of the free space outside the fortress to explain the pickup effects. Overall, good job.

I do not know if I was playing the game wrong or something.. But I could not reach the yellow items needed to defeat the enemies. Sometimes it was impossible to reach by either character and I had to reset and lose 5hp. This resulted in me losing before the game really even started. Nice idea though!
The art for this game is neat! Maybe a different kind of bgm would fit better with the art style of the game :D
Very cool concept! A short, sharp curve in learning, and a long, gradual curve to mastery. The art is fun and easy to read, and the music kept me from getting stressed out too much. I can't imagine how this would play if it had different music haha! I know this is just a jam game, but I'd be interested to see how this play style would pan out with different demons, extra abilities, and maybe even an "adventure" mode.
I'm pretty sure you're allowed hotfixes after the deadline. I don't think anyone is gonna get mad at you for fixing the music. :)
Loved the concept, though I did manage to get soft-locked once or twice on level five. Nice use of assets, although the music seemed really glitchy and out of place, and also didn't match the cited music?
