Funny little dungeon crawler, maybe a bit hard (or i was unlucky), the possibility to run from a fight may be a plus!

Funny little dungeon crawler, maybe a bit hard (or i was unlucky), the possibility to run from a fight may be a plus!
A bit too hard for me, kept dying all the time. The probes were a nice touch but I wonder if a space exploration game wouldn't
Good idea. A little basic though :)
Very minimal, yet the fights can get pretty interesting. I love dungeon-explory stuff and I enjoyed playing this :)
I don't understand the rules, but the game is cool.
For the first six or seven games my best score was 4.
But I kind of got the hang of it, plus got a little luck, and together I got a score of 24!
I also found a monster that wasn't the wizard, one time. He was enormous and destroyed me, of course.
i loved the challenge i got better the more i played, prob move to chest fight easy enamy and use heal up just before you kill the last one as you get a potion each time loved it
Quite fun minimalist dungeon crawler.
Very nice little dungeon crawler! From game design's point of view, you've managed to find the core of the genre! Well done!
Btw you have some numbers (dices I guess?) being dumped in the console :) probably a leftover from the development.
Easel.js? We've used it last time at LD27, but now I've switched to Phaser (http://phaser.io) Give it a try, you'd like it!
Finally Won with a score of 1 !
Great game, addictive. It could use a lot of balancing but I'm sure that's due to time constraint. Good job!
I really enjoyed this game once I got the hang of it (ALWAYS USE PROBES), but it's frustrating how much you have to rely on luck (NO MORE PROBES? WELL TOO BAD, YOU'RE ALREADY DEAD).
Overall, pretty fun. There are several areas you could've improved which would've made for a much better game overall.
Balance. 10HP doesn't give me much, but it gives me way more than 10 atk, which doesn't do anything for me. It doesn't help me kill things faster, it doesn't help me stay alive. I'd need at least, what, 20 or 30 more atk before it makes a difference? And since the rounds don't last very long, this never happens.
I think probes should give you a little more view of the surrounding rooms, or you should start with more probes.
You should have multiple floors, exiting once and then it's over meant I never wanted to exit.
Maybe a "ball of smoke" object that lets you exit a room without killing things. Alternatively, you could just make the probe do this.
Might I suggest using left/right to select enemies since you can't exit a room until they're all dead anyway?
Other than that, sound was effective, music would've been nice. Graphics were good.
Overall nice iteration on common mechanics. There were just a few things holding you back from a really fun game.
I loved this entry! The retro-feeling is awesome. I managed to find the exit after the 20th try :D
Got a bit addicted to it. Scored 72!
Wow, Thanks for the feed back guys. Really glad to find people enjoyed it. :)
Interesting game. To me it was really hard. Highest score I got was a 3. Good entry though.
This game is very well thought. Once you understand that you get both items on battle win it becomes really interesting. I won with 83 points but without potion and with 70x180HP/DMG165 - considered risky to hunt further - the elemental dies, but vs 5-6 gremlins is tough. Really addicting *5!
