Cute little game. Though the small window hurt my eyes a bit. :( I liked the gameplay and how I could send the enemies flying as I hit them! :D

That is a good little game. I like the knives, how he moves and the princess who is moving like a snail. The fight are good too. But the windows are very too small for my eyes. Though, i like it because we must be aleready careful of possible attacks. Good Game !!

Controls are a bit slow, but the mechanics of fighting/hit back, and the princess following are good. Wasn't clear what range I had to be in to use the the call princess feature. Standard screen was really small.

I like it. It feels a bit like a reverse Pikmin - you are helping the person following you, instead of the persons following you are helping you.
I think the game suffers a bit from the slow speed of the princess. If it's the point to be annoyed by her - well done :D But her speed just bore me.

Nice little game, however it feels too slow to me.

dsoft20 2013-04-29 13:09

I'm sorry for the small game window.
As a temporary work-around You can zoom the web-page, or right click on the game window and select full-screen.

Windows build have the toggle fullscreen options with pressing ALT+ENTER (Linux & Mac should have too, but I haven't tested them)

I love the way this game looks! Not a big fan of the controls.

follett 2013-04-29 14:42

I enjoyed it but felt it was to slow.

xgeovanni 2013-04-29 14:53

It's asking me to install Unity webplayer, but I already have it.

atraxgames 2013-04-29 15:52

Good take on the theme: reducing the ruleset is a good idea.

dsoft20 2013-04-29 16:27

@xgeovanni
I don't know why it isn't working, even my previous entry for the LD25 had this issue for some users, and I don't know what caused it :/.
You could try to reload the page or maybe you can use another browser, or even download one of the standalone version (win, linux or mac)

I enjoy the idea of thoughtless royalty thinking only of themselves through hostility. It was amusing. Kinda slow-paced though, and it's hard to figure out where the princess is initially.

uprightpath 2013-04-29 17:43

I liked it! Most of my comments would follow the others. However, there're a few graphics issues I'd like to bring up: The princess's speech bubble can cover up the knight, making it difficult to tell which way he's facing; the ground seems to spasm when you're turning in a circle (Changes texture, sometimes a seam appears).

thequay 2013-04-29 17:51

Nice little game, bigger view would of been better. Was fun :)

martin_monosys 2013-04-29 18:49

Nice take on the theme, but the princess is awfully slow. Sadly, it doesn't look very good in fullscreen, maybe because of the aspect ratio of 16:9 on my screen...

orangepascal 2013-04-29 19:06

I wouldn't mind a slightly faster version, movement feels slow; probably my short attention span talking ;)

lasergans 2013-04-29 22:14

I like the idea of your game a lot :) The slow movement bores a bit.
But overall: good job :)

psychomonster 2013-04-29 23:23

Ohhh yeah... nice... a little bit to small for my eyes... ouch...

tiditto 2013-04-30 00:08

bushes for the edge of the level? good game, though my princess was always sleepy.

dsoft20 2013-04-30 08:40

@TiDitto I haven't tought about the edge of the level, too little time, at least the player can't fall down from the edge ;P

kidevil 2013-04-30 09:11

Thought the controls were good, and the fighting worked well. Ended up leading the Princess into a pack of thugs, and they finished er off :)

metalcan 2013-04-30 15:12

Neat game. It took me a while to find the princes, and I might have killed her while trying to fight off a swarm of thugs. Pretty cool, but would be nice with some indication of where to go, and the walking feels too slow. Fun concept, and nice visuals.

catman 2013-04-30 17:49

Cute! Maybe the player is a bit slow tho!

saggiosoft 2013-05-01 09:52

Very nice!

stmatn 2013-05-01 21:50

A bit slow paced gameplay and small window, but very nice game! The fighting is fun.

gregdevice 2013-05-02 06:46

I like the simplicity of it all. Where do you bring her when she's sleepy?

dsoft20 2013-05-02 09:49

@gregdevice
South of the beginning point ;p

hegemege 2013-05-03 11:16

Fun game, even though a bit slow paced. Fits the theme really well, good job :P

sudorossy 2013-05-04 00:59

Feels a bit slow, and I think the princess was bugged, she wouldn't come when I called (hehe)

dsoft20 2013-05-04 06:34

@sudorossy
The princess must be close to the knight ;P otherwhise she doesn't follow you :P

cakencode 2013-05-04 08:49

The controls were sort of strange and I thought it started off slow since I couldn't find the princess at first. Great job!

zhrack 2013-05-04 09:24

Nice game! only, the game window is very small!

gamenacho 2013-05-08 04:43

The graphic style works very well for this game! Great job overall!

minionstudios 2013-05-09 21:15

Great game, sup freakin fun and so MINIMAL! +1

zkenshin 2013-05-15 17:06

Nice little entry. :)

miotatsu 2013-05-15 17:13

neat, although the control could use a bit of refinement
