Nice! Very well made!

The learning curve is a bit off. There are so many thing to do in the first level it's really hard to pick up on the basics. I managed to finish it in 11 moves on my first try, and that's far too much effort for a first level, for the first thing a player has to do. Try to ease in new players into the game. I think the first level should have just had the king and 1 or 2 servants, no death, no spiky things that apparently don't kill you (I though they did, based on the graphics).

This was weirdly relaxing to play, kind of nice really...
Would have been nice to have been able to skip the countdown if I had already told my servants what to do.
The graphics and audio were amazing! :)

ThirteenWB: Thank you! The countdown can be skipped by pressing spacebar. I was so tired when I was submitting this game that I forget to mention this... :)

Really nice one, level 2 is hard but I'll get it :)
Nice graphics, sound is cool! Nice polish, it's in my fav.

handcraftedradio 2013-08-26 19:57

Nice! This is cool! Neat gameplay idea!

loxo 2013-08-26 20:01

You made a really great relaxing game that fits the theme very well. I like it very much! The first level could be a bit easier though.

latcarf 2013-08-26 20:23

Nice game, but I find it too difficult. Graphics and music are really good.

randomelginguy 2013-08-26 20:47

Loved the art style and the sounds. good game, found it a bit difficult, and easier to kill the spiky things than get the king thing to the finish area.

recursiveanomaly 2013-08-27 01:48

I love the sound when you beat the level!

hypnohustla 2013-08-27 08:21

Nice and polished. It gets a bit frustrating to get cornered by the spiky balls but thats my own damn fault. :) Very innovative!

rxi 2013-08-27 13:36

Felt like a really interesting concept and good use of the theme. The audio, music and visuals all worked together to created a unified style.

The gameplay was quite fresh and original, it felt like it would be something that would hold up well on a touch device.

I think the lead guitar on the main music went out of time with the rhythm guitar a bit, which, ended up bugging me a little once I noticed, but this was my one irk with the otherwise really nicely done audio.

Overall, nice work!

really love there little faces its a cool idea! this could be a fun game to play with a pool table

bitserum 2013-08-27 18:33

It was refreshing playing this game. Had lots of fun. The theme was lost on be, i just kept using spacebar. But very good job overall.

triplevisiongames 2013-08-27 18:36

Starts off a bit too hard but if you can make some levels to ease the player in you've got a really good game here! Like the art style and the music and it's a good idea.

daoyster 2013-08-27 19:32

Nice and original. Little vague at first until I realized you had to get the first to the finish and not the seconds too.

hyperbox 2013-08-28 03:36

Definitely challenging, but fun. The sound effects and music were top notch, reminded me a bit of Everyday Shooter in a weird way.

solifuge 2013-08-28 03:39

Innovative, aesthetically nice, and innovative mechanics. I didn't read the tutorial, and solved the first 2 levels by pushing the enemies into the pit (it's easier than navigating to finish sometimes). Thank you for putting this together!

vanderzwan 2013-08-28 10:46

Adorable graphics, simple to control. Overal a very fun little puzzle game :)

diptoman 2013-08-28 10:51

The theme seemed crammed in there. But the game itself is excellent - innovative, relaxing. Great work!

raver 2013-08-29 07:06

Great, simple graphics, bouncy sounds and neat gameplay. One thing i need is a restart button, but despite this - good job.

inertia 2013-08-29 15:10

original take on the theme, super cute graphics and sounds. probably one of the best games I've played so far

sgehlich 2013-08-29 16:15

Nice idea :)

ratalaika 2013-08-29 17:10

good job

eggdestroyer 2013-08-30 11:51

Good job. Polished graphics and good audio (tho it could use some extra work on the sound mix), the idea is quite nice. Also really relaxing :)

Still, you should IMO rework the difficulty curve, the first level is way too hard and I had a hard time understanding what was going on (I thought the black circle was the objective). And something to explain the extra features maybe !

zlowrance 2013-08-30 14:19

Great entry :D

kunonooni 2013-08-30 14:27

Amazing puzzle game! Simple and elegant. Great Job!

mollymus 2013-09-03 08:49

Quite a nice little game! I think this would make for an awesome time-killer on mobile devices! Great job!

ithildin 2013-09-03 18:59

I love the music!

The idea is quite original and quite challenging (perhaps a preliminary level could help people get more in touch with the mechanics, but personally, I don't mind the difficulty)

Cool entry :D

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-05 02:17

Love the sound/graphics but found this game sort of hard (maybe I just fail XD ) I featured it in my LD27 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX5erHA1DPE

cryovat 2013-09-16 23:37

I'm afraid the gameplay isn't quite my cup of tea, so I ended up ragequitting after skipping some levels and wasting my remaining seconds. I think the mechanics are interesting though, and it's a very polished package.

I liked the music, and it meshed well with the art style. It all feels friendly and whimsical. Not quite for me, but still an excellent piece of work. Well done! :)

PS: I love your nick! :D
