Heyy, thank you so much for the feedback! We are huge fans of Hollow Knight and just wanted to make a game from the other perspective. We had very little time to make this and yes the gameplay mechanic definitely needs a lot of work, and we are already in the process of fixing the bugs and the feel of the game. Reskinning the characters is definitely something we can do, and we have plans of doing it!. 

Your feedback has honestly been incredible and we hope you like the finished product! Please feel free to leave any additional feedback that you may have!

Hey I am one of the guys who made this. Thanks for giving the game a try, we honestly had around 22 hours to make this from the ground up and really appreciate the feedback!.
As for the assets, none of it was ripped or copied, I drew and animated them myself; Yes they are based on the Hollow Knight game and characters but they weren't ripped. Upon seeing the theme,  the idea of reversing Hollow Knight, as The Hollow Knight, was something we loved and just wanted to make it. Our goal was not to 'plagiarize' but to simply make something for fun and in a way pay homage to the great game. 
As for it being valid submission, it is honestly up to the organizers of the jam. There are many submissions that has reversed an existing game and they have all been incredibly creative and fun. At the end of the day if the organizers invalidate this then oh well, in the little time we had to make this, we had fun with it. 
The game mechanics definitely need some work to it. We are planning on  completing it, fixing the bugs and add some additional features to create this into a standalone fan game. 

Regardless, thanks for the trying out the game and leaving your feedback, we hope you like the finished product!

P.S: I did have to recreate the art as I used skeletal animations to animate, but I am quite happy that you think its good enough to have been copied straight from the game hahah.

Love the animation and the base mechanics. I hope you stick to it to finish!

Big fan of tower defense games and defending the dragon was an interesting idea! Good job!

Oh wow, thanks for the tip! Gonna add that now, really appreciate it

Hey everyone!

I am looking for an artist that can make concept art for a project that I am working on. It is *potentially* paid work, as in you will get paid after the project has finished. I am attaching an example below, so if this is something you are good at and would love to work on a project then hit me up on discord at adwitr#1164 or here. 

P.S; We are looking for something better then the one below, it just something I tried to make to set an idea of what we are looking for. 

The art on the game looks amazing and so glad to hear that my art made it in as well. Thank you for the mention, I am downloading it right now

You can use any image editing software to split them up and save them individually, but yeah if you are using Unity then you can split them on the engine and use them separately. 

Yes, you can. Feel free to drop a link to the project too, I would love to check it out!

a man of culture indeed

I have watched it and it's pretty good. Good stuff mate.

I will definitely give that a look
