How does your game fit the theme?
You're a soldier trapped in a time loop, at the end of which you will die a miserable death. Try to memorise it from top to bottom so you can finally break it and survive "today" !

Neat little game! I see someone's read 오늘만 사는 기사 haha; This genre of fiction came up in my head when I saw the theme as well, but wasn't sure how I'd realise it engagingly (and on time!). You've done a good job!
Nice art, the stance/skill system was interesting, and I liked there were hazards and the special move you had to remember to break up the monotony of the attack loop.
I managed to barely sneak in a win at 4 deaths (Stance x3 + Skill; and a bit of luck) on Turn 19. Feel like I might've dodged a bullet avoiding turn 20 :)
Thanks ! Impressive run, and you're right, in this build, starting from turn 21 onwards the enemy makes completely random moves.
And yeah, I read through Eternally regressing knight 3 weeks before the jam and when I saw the theme I instantly knew what I wanted to do !
Amazing art! It would be nice to have a faster way to die in battle
Thanks ! That's true, well I'm gonna tweak the game in a way players won't feel that way anymore (Well, more like I'll try to)
Very nice art!
Did it in 7th try! I must say I'm amused by the art, by music, by the narrative. It's a hecking good job for a jam!
Thank you !!!
While I enjoyed the game for the most part, I think I was just super unlucky. 3 times I got Sarge to a point where the next hit was fatal, and wither got crit for 450 damage and died, or was chipped out due to every move failing. It kinda bogged down the game for me, because I had all the tools to win, only to get crushed by bad luck. But despite all that, the art was good, and I enjoyed learning the game (even though I still have no idea what bear stance does).
Thanks ! You were unlucky for sure, but the balancing and randomness is also the least polished part of the game, and the one I'll be fixing right after the jam.
The second best area for improvement is the visual and auditory feedback: the bear stance multiplies your damage in exchange for lowering your chances of parrying and dodging, but to realise this, you'd have to pay special attention to the damage values written in the bottom-right dialogue box.
Thanks for playing !
Never thought would see a manhwa game in this jam, and honestly loved the ARTSYTLE . Took me 11 tries, but did it. Great job man :D
Thanks a lot ! We really appreciate it
Such a good game except for one flaw... I spent so long getting to the end and had to much fun for a bug to come in where the game never finishes if you and the serg die at the same time :'(, oh well awesome work.
No way ! I can't believe I didn't account for that, what happened then ? Thanks for playing and sorry that happened, gonna try to fix this for eventual future players
I enjoyed the game! The looping progression was pretty satisfying, and the art is so well done!
Thanks ! Your game was really enjoyable too !
I won after 9 deaths. I liked the art and music. And the gameplay was enjoyable, but it was a bit tedious to skip through mostly the same dialogue. Especially at the morning, with “dice guy”.
Maybe that could be summarised to a single box after the first few times?
Thanks for playing ! 9 loops is a good performance ! I'll make sure to add a solution to skip the starting dialogue, thanks for the feeback
The sound effects, music and art in this game are great, really sets the mood perfectly! Great game!
Thanks a lot !
that time i got reincarnated into a game jam and had to battle the bosses of game development with the cheat skill of "Too Much Caffeine"
Great effort!
The art in this game is amazing especially for such a short period of time, and it's got a pretty cool story! Reminds me of Edge of Tomorrow!
Great game! The start is slow but once you get into upgrading your skills it becomes more compelling. I found that the game's design incentivized you to upgrade strength and speed over reflexes and defences, since having low defence lets you die more often and get upgrades more quickly.
I absolutely loved the idea, the artwork is amazing!
I love the visual novel style of this game! As you and the character progress further in battle, it's very satisfying to accurately apply a newly learned technique and get further than the day before.
Hey :) I know thats is quite hard to find visuals novels style here but yours is really cool. I love the loop system :) gg
Thanks ! Your game was really cool too ! I'd never imagine a system where you're a train going in circles to defend a castle from toys, it was quite well made too !
