Its a shame you didnt have time to add more, I feel like the mechanics are just at the beginning of what you could do with the game. Looks promising!

Can you rate my game too? Thx ^^

I really like the style you have going for it

Submitted(+1)

I liked the art and dialogue but I think the gameplay is a bit too difficult and long, overall good job!

Submitted(+1)

The theme and concept here could go somewhere. This is a title held up by writing and character and that works as is!

The gameplay itself does need tweaking, When you're dealing with different people with different eyesight and mouse accuracy that will always be a struggle. I personally found it difficult because filling the bar took a long time and the lights were hard to see. But with some polish and of course an extension of the story this could be something awesome to release.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! The kinds of games people play will really impact how well they do here, and if I want to continue with it from a story perspective I should have the gameplay more accessible to get through

Submitted(+1)

I think the concept would definitely be worth continuing on with, especially if you have more story ready to go!

First of all, I love the main character because she/he looks cute XD, although I have some suggestion though the first one is like pretty hard maybe make it easy at first counter then harder when the player reaches in point, also the sfx I love it, good job!

Submitted(+1)

I really like the art, 

I wish there was more to the game than what it is, but it's really nice nevertheless.

Nice job!

Developer

Thank you!

That fireball isn't real? I don't believe you…

.

Also, the characters look really cute, just look at that smile


Great game, short n' sweet!

Thank you so much!

Super fun game! Loved how hard it was to actually build up the fireballs and trying not to get hit. The sounds are fun and cute. Great job.

I would appreciate it if you could give my game a try and rate it. Thank you. :)

Developer

Thank you! I will for sure get around to yours too!

Nice illustrations. The game loop needs a bit of rework I think. Light particles might fill the bar a bit earlier and you might want to change the background image to a bit darker one so that the particles would be more visible. Well Done.

Thank you! And yes, making the particles more visible is at the top of my list :)

The handmade animations are super cute. The gameplay also works incredibly nice. Maybe it is a little difficult! The initial combat should be a a little bit easier, but regardless, every element worked really fine. We ranked it super high!! Nice job!!

Developer

Thank you so much! I had a proper tutorial planned but time got the best of me

Finally, my years of experience on huge mouse DPI have paid off. Really fun gameplay loop, too bad there was only one level. I really think you should continue working on this one!

Developer

Thank you! A lot of the positive comments certainly make me want to continue it :)
