That was great, I loved how you used the background colour as health. First time it switched I was wondering what it went but when it was red I completely understood. Also those Centaurs, where very difficult to kill XD

Solid design. I love the life-color system and the minimalist graphic design overall.
Maybe you could design some enemy with more agility? I tend the just roll in circle waiting for the enemies to be packed.

HARPOON!!!Real solid design and imediately fun to pickup and play, I really enjoyed this one, the enemy variety made this quite engaging, and added some strategy to it with having to prioritize targets and plan escape routes to survive, The way you displayed the player's health is also pretty unique.
There's really quite a lot on display behind the minimalist aestetic, shame there's no sound or music (but hey for a jam that's understandable ^^) but with just that to add you got quite some game already !
Definitively Congrats ! :)

The Tomb of VärvituGood design! Unfortunately it didn't work with my PS4 gamepad, and keyboard control is crude. I guess it would work better with a mouse control.

Pick Your PoisonThis was pretty challenging, but very enjoyable! WASD is definitely harder to use, but not impossible. Great job!

Fred and BoxReally neat game, but for the amount of enemies on screen i would have liked to have more health than just 3 hits.

a game about a guy and his clonesThe Prewave introduction to the enemys was great, I could learn how to fight them before being throw into a horde of them. This game has been the best presented ive played as for as tutorialization goes in the entire jam so far. Great overall

One Card IncomeI like the color change when you get hurt. It's simple but it works well. Good job :D

SweetyA very good example of a game where the simplicity enhances the experience. It's a game that is immediately understandable, even when new elements are introduced. Great job!

Mocho vs MostrosA great game! I find it difficult to play using WSAD, but I believe it would be great with an actual stick! I like how you used letters as enemies!
