Letting the player know that the character moves with the arrow keys would be a bit helpful. Otherwise this was a pretty cute little game. The battle is a bit confusing because you can just hold down Z and stab people, and the orientation of the player to the enemies makes stabbing them a bit difficult. Otherwise thanks for a fun game.
It's rather rough, but there's quite a lot of content in there. I'd spend a little more time on player feedback next time like making the player damage blink quicker, having knockback on damage, an effect for damaging enemies, etc. Small tweaks that would make a big difference.
Just as a warning, you may want to shrink the window size in the web version - it doesn't play nice with default web browser controls.
Interesting use of the theme, although the gameplay is somewhat confusing.
What's the point of the stat items and the thing at the beginning?
Nice work on the music!

Cool music. This could work well as a fantasy game, swords and orcs etc.
Cool music. Good job.

nice game! very simple design. the music being a few second loop gets a little annoying but other than that, it was well done.
I won? ; )
Pretty cool game : )

moving with the arrow keys scrolled the page which was very annoying. otherwise the game is pretty interesting. good job!
All games with graphics like this one gets high ratings as they prove that gameplay isn't rooted in the graphics.
Was going to complain about the awful controls until I realized you could also move with the arrow keys. There's quite a few levels, but it seems like you can skip all but the bosses. Didn't really get the shape-bombs, but they were very effective!
