This is a very cool concept. Nice art and music.

Cool game. Nice to look at, and I like how if you go to the over world you regenerate. (I'm assuming that's the over world).

Found a bug, the game crashes if two of the dark guys run into you at the same time. Fun game though!

Entertaining little game with nice graphics. I didn't really have a point of reference as far as how much I needed to train to have a chance against the yellow guys, but I still had fun with it!

Nice game, reminds me to "half minute hero". It'd be nice to have some indicator to show the strength of the enemies.

Second the "Half Minute Hero" influence, but in a great way. Love the way that (other than the inputs) you can find all the mechanics through play.

Grinding... very cool concept for someone who simply just want to waste their time. However, I can't beat the yellows after so long XD Anyway, a very nice game there, dude.

I love it! Very simple, yet awesome controls. Visuals look great and everything seems to work properly. Really like the top down/sideview switch between fights and roaming. Games like these are a huge part of the reason why I love GameJams. It's hard, though. Hard as balls, but lots of fun.

I love the art style and chip tunes. Great entry.

Very low innovation note because it feels a bit too much like a ripoff of One Minute Hero

schizokoa 2014-08-27 21:27

(oh, and I forgot to say it was good otherwise :p)

Probably a tad too much grinding for my liking.
Perhaps lower the time limit and amount of grinding required for less patient people like me. The low res look is alright but why impose that restriction on yourself?

Nice tribute of 10sec heroes, liked it. A restart button would have been nice :)
