This is a very nice proof of concept. I reckon that this would make a detective/crime investigation type of game. It really fits the prompt really well and fighting against a liar's tactics with the power of truth was really fun.
I managed to render the opponent's health bar down in about 10-11 turns with a chunk of health remaining. But the game seems to continue on with the opponent starting his attack even after the game was over.
This then caused the win screen to change Player 1 Wins into Player 2 Wins.
There's a lot to improve upon this game but mostly needs:
- A massive graphical overhaul;
Command prompts are a little hard to read.
Some attacks have animations while others don't.
It's mostly just two non-moving stick-figures on a warm pastel purple backdrop (which is understandable with the amount of time you had to make it.).
- Sound effects and Music
Some other things you can add:
- More commands to equip and use
- Possible ways to play as a liar character
Overall, you got a really great and simple idea that is willing to become an even greater game.
Congrats on finishing your game on time.
