This is such a weird entry for me to rate… While this is unquestionably the best game (tied with a couple others) in the jam I’ve played so far, the rating criteria kinda pull it down. Enjoyment is an easy 5/5. The graphics serve its purpouse well, however I am not really sure if I like them that much. But since I cant point out anything mayor it gets an easy 4/5 in graphics. The music, and sfx are fine. Nothing great or bad. So 3/5 for me. The theme interpretation however, I do not like. This is kinda the most basic possible type of game you could have made for the jam. A lot of games here have the health = stamina approach. This happens to be the best, out of all those games, however I would never recommend this game to somebody else just based on the concept alone. So while this technically fits the theme, it gets a 2/5 for theme interpretation from be, because its so basic and safe.

So overall, while this is one of the few jam games i would actually pay money for (if it had more content), I cant really say I want this game to win, because I’d rather see something more creative/experimental win a jam

Thank you for playing and for the feedback. I completely understand and agree with what you said about me playing it too safe with this game lol. 

Admittedly I had a few more ideas to give the combat system a little more depth based on the main mechanic, but I had two issues preventing me from really going further with them.

1. I realised I wouldn't really have enough time to polish those ideas, and that would it would probably be better if I kept the mechanics of the player simple. Just to ensure that anyone can jump right into the game as smoothly as possible. Unfortunately that also resulted in the game being a little too safe as you mentioned

2. The boss needed to be finished, but unfortunately even then, it's currently unfinished lol. It's basically missing another attack that it was supposed to do towards the end.

Frankly, everything about this game in it's current state is more or less only 30% of what I had planned, so I thought I'd try and polish what was there at the very least.

So yeah, I completely get what you mean about wanting a game that takes more risks to win. Frankly I hope the same lol

Thank you for playing and for your thoughts
