I like the way the upgrades are chosen for the next round but it would be good to feel more of a sense of progression. The graphics and sounds are minimalistic but that really works as part of the style. The music is good and fits well too. It is a good concept well put together and fun to play.

If you’ve played Legend of Zelda Randomizer, you might never get a sword and fight enemies with a hammer. This is arguably much harder and time-consuming. Which is why I hate those versions. I feel the same as the sword is too small, and swift attacks don’t do damage. I would recommend you add permanent buffs as the game progresses as this is a small game, gives your players a sense of winning, and can then try to beat how many times it took to regenerate to finish. It would add more fun. Also hard to understand what each powerup is exactly.

Unfortunately, I could not move: I have “search as you type” enabled in my browser, and you don’t call .preventDefault() on key events, so when I try to move, the page search opens for me.

Very cool game! I really liked the pixel art, the mechanics and the music. It is a bit difficult (or I am just bad) and lacks some explanations to what the different power-ups do when you enter a door. The icons alone are not self explanatory.

This looks lovely, and the sound is amazing. I enjoyed the set-up, and the story appears good. Unfortunately the attack control wasn’t working for me so I was unable to battle.

An enjoyable roguelike style romp that reminded me of atari adventure in its simplicity. I like choosing upgrades after each battle, but wish they were mega powered. Overall, a very nice game, especially impressive given the 13kb size limit. Great work.

Love the graphics and the game play. Although first time I saw it I didn’t see the sword on the floor so went in to battle and wasn’t able to even hurt any enemies.

\n

Nice music for a fighting game.

\n

Combat was quite tricky having to use both the mouse and keyboard at the same time.

Awesome job! This game was fun, pretty, had great music, and was educational! I wasn’t sure what all the power-ups did. But the easy approach would have been to go with an archer like a typical shooter, but the sword was a great choice. Lots of fun, and a different feel from the shooter I was expecting.

Very cute despite the somewhat somber background story. The gameplay is good but I didn’t like the controls. What is the point of mouse control? It is very hard playing on a touch pad, so please consider using only keyboard controls. Also restarting from the beginning is a bit tedious and makes me want to quit playing.

\n

Anyway, great game!

Good zelda like (Isaak like) roguelite, gameplay is really interesting, there are some strategies and different behavior for different enemies.

\n

Great Job!

Cute graphics and sound effects! This feels like a well finished game.
