Great job! This was a lot of fun. I loved the attack animation and sound, very nostalgic and also very satisfying to attack the different enemies. I love the concept of your goals and challenges being decided up front. I did feel like the spawning of the enemies perhaps just happened around you (or maybe frequently all over) which meant I didn't have to explore much. But it was lots of fun, great job!

Very interesting idea! The art is great. 

As someone already mentioned, the game gets repetitive pretty quickly, but I'm sure it can be fixed in a post jam version with some extra rolls for something like weapon type, or with some progression elements.

Excellent presentation. The artwork for this game is gorgeous and cohesive. The gameplay was easily understandable but got repetitive very quickly. It was nice that it counted successive completion of missions, but I didn't feel any sense of progression or need to keep playing more than a few times. The spawn locations of all 4 types of items/enemies also remained the same so it was easy to know where to go no matter what your challenge. I can see the potential for this as some kind of rogue-like though, where you gain new abilities but vastly different challenges as you progress.
