That was one of the best games of the whole Ludum Dare 34 for me! Not just that the pixel art was amazing as usually, but also the minimalistic, well balanced gameplay concept! It was a bit luck based because there were always just maximally two paths to choose to progress, but never too luck based because one had to tactically prepare and buy things from the shops. Also, the whole fight system which just focuses on charging attacks and blocking was so clever! I absolutely adored this game, so I felt the urge to recommend it in one article on our blog and also to upload a quick gameplay video. I hope that some more players were driven to your entry with all of that. <3 A well deserved 6th place! :)
Best wishes,
Sebastian
