gorgeous character art and animations, and pretty enjoyable gameplay, I found the environment art to be a little stale, but I'm sure that was due to time constraints, anyways, really great job:)

Feels like it could have used a bit more decoration or variety to spice up the areas. But it's quite fun and very playable!

Really hard! Apparently there's a boss so I'm determined to get there. Love the graphics, sound and controls!

Those skulls are really evil

Really fun! Repetitive, but still good considering time constraints. The boss made me say "Ahhh! Boss!!!", so there was that.

Died at the boss (couldn't find a better strategy than just kiting him). Overall it was enjoyable, the controls are quick and responsive.

Very nice atmosphere! Gameplay is quick and intuitive, I like it. I wish i could move while I shoot though. It becomes very hard very quickly.

Really awesome game! Loved the sound and graphics and really enjoyed getting to the boss and ALMOST beating him!

Loved the feel of this game! Gameplay was solid, art was beautiful, and music was very fitting. The only complaint I had was the first level got stale really fast after fighting the boss and dying. It would be better of the enemies sought you out rather than just waiting for you to come. This feels like a solid start for a much bigger dungeon crawler. Nice work!

Very good graphics and I enjoyed it!

Fantastic game. Art, music, gameplay - just everything!

Great character sprites and I really like the attack animation. Would love to know how it was done. Only thing that I would have liked to have seen is a bit more of variety in the enemies

The pixel art is just perfect!

Really lovely stuff Kyle! Figured out the best way to fight right as I was at 9% health, which made everything much more intense!

Hi,
I like the presentation and speed here, the attack moves give a good sense of power.

garethiw 2014-04-30 19:12

Fun game Kyle, almost reminiscent of Gauntlet for me. Got to the boss twice but completely failed to gain vengeance!

Really fun game and nice graphics. It's hard but overall well balanced.

nichii 2014-05-01 11:16

Its an addictive game, the graphics are pretty good and the monsters come flooding in which adds a challenge. Well done XD

kuchalu 2014-05-01 11:17

Really addictive. Love the art style, music and gameplay. Very well done.

Okay, so I am a floating skeleton dressed in Death's clothes, and I fight flamming and giant floating skulls with psychic powers. I think I have a new definition for 'badass game'.
Seriously though, your game was awesome. Nothing more to say, except that I was left wanting more.

petey123567 2014-05-02 08:12

Skulls! Scene wipes! Creatively Avoiding Walkcycles! Lovely!

petrih 2014-05-02 12:46

Excellent game, me like!

cogcomp 2014-05-06 06:20

This is a great action RPG! Loving it! Is it possible to get kill the boss?

javadocmd 2014-05-06 22:36

Loved the character design in this.

degtyarev 2014-05-15 14:25

pretty cool game

ultimatewalrus 2014-05-19 22:19

It's a fun little game though it feels a bit bare. I think you guys need to disable mipmapping on your textures, as the game looked very blurry on my graphics card (example: http://i.imgur.com/Zp6lod0.png). The boss took me from almost 100% to 0% in one attack which felt a little cheap.

Goddam boss ganked me with his red aura thingy :'(

Love the music, very melancholic. The art is great too :) The gameplay is a tad repetitive though, and I've got some resolution issues on my laptop (can't fit the whole game in frame).
