I love the art and music! Did you make them? Full stars in all categories from me. 

I found the best tactic to be to just stand still in the middle and only protect yourself from the nearest daggers. When I got this score there were quite a few more daggers on the ground.


Some notes:

- It would have made it a lot harder if even if a dagger was turned to gold, you had to go behind it to pick it up as it was still sharp.

- Throughout the whole time I was playing, the game was flickering with the intro splash screen

- Arrow keys were also moving the page up and down

Overall, a very creative use of the theme, and a nicely polished outcome.

Thanks ! Yes, I did everything during this game jam. I started my creative journey with music a long time ago, I always like polishing the music even if I was a bit in a hurry here.
Nice strategy ! 
I took into account your feedback. I think I will take some time to improve the game during this month.
Thanks a lot for this great feedback !

Very simple yet visually appealing and addicting gameplay.

My submission also is about Midas type king that turns his servants to gold.

Developer

Yes, many us were inspired by Midas myth ! I tried your game and it was fun.

Great concept!

The controls are interesting as it utilizes both the mouse and the arrow keys for movement, very good game indeed :D

Thanks a lot. Yes, I wanted to make an arcade game very accessible but a bit hard to finish. Thanks for playing it !
