I really like it, best I've tried actually, everything feels mainly solid so my complaints are minor.
Firstly it feels a bit cheap that the slugs's sight seems greater than yours and they can shoot you before you see them.

Secondly once you collect your first chest the theme seems a bit redundant as the timer is now some arbitrary number. Honestly though even I think this is a pretty daft complaint as you still start with 10 seconds but maybe something to think about

If you could take a look at my game I'd be really grateful :)

it's a cool game, really cool. could do with a restart button though.

Yeah I know, there is a secret one, press P to reset the whole thing.

Besides the controls it was really good :D

A neat concept. I didn't seem to be able to use my sword though.

Funny game, and very simple. I like it! :)

BlackBulletIV you have to reach a minimum stamina to swing your sword, so you must balance running and fighting etc.

Really solid mechanics, would ease up a bit the difficulty on the first levels though. It's way too brutal at the beginning

Doesn't work for me, its just showing some white blocks on the screen and making noise. I installed the redist even though I probably already had it installed but that didnt help.

Great game!

poohshoes I think I know why, I chose to use OpenGL 3.3 techniques because it renders so much faster, the trade-off being some older graphics cards or maybe intel GCs (mostly in laptops) might not support it. Sorry, I'll add a note so others know.

Overrall a good game and fun to play. I have a minor gripe with the the fact that respawn key is not shown in game because, no, i didn't RTFM :P

Pretty fun! Not sure I dig the stamina mechanic; it seems like an extra headache attached to a game that's really about running around and trying to find the stairs by the deadline.

This game was pretty decent, but it was infuriating when I ran out of time when I was standing on the stairs to level 4 :(

Also I've never had problems with OpenGL 1 in 2D games. Having shader access is nice, but even naive OpenGL 1 tile rendering on my computer from 2004 works just fine. (No graphics card, using the Mesa driver on Linux. 1200MHz dual core CPU)

Great little game, ran out of time loads, but it was great! I featured it in my LD27 compilation series if you'd like to check it out! http://youtu.be/FJWNdgd85u0

It opened and then stopped working
