At first I thought it was a real time evasion game, but once I found it was per key press it became way more strategic and was way more fun!

Really cool game idea!

It feels a little unfinished. Also it's really dificlt to avoid getting too close to enemies on some levels and once they get too close getting away is even more problematic. Other than that, I quite like this game.

Great little game, I really enjoyed the strategy, been able to get through quite a few levels, over 5 replays, will definitely replay it. Not sure if intended, but the browser version has no sound or music

It's Medusaleks!

Really hard AI!
Well done!

It was fun to turn everything to stone. The graphics are a little too simple for me though.

Nicely done! I love the killing mechanic, makes you think ahead and plan your moves. With some more work this would become a simple but good game!

Cool puzzle game! The procedural level is unpredictable though. The stairs are sometime generated beside medusa, which is nice, easy points.

Really roguelike game. I love the idea of control the medusa and the turn based movement. The Ia is relative hard, but the gameplay is perfect. One of my top games in this Ludum. Simple and fun.

Hey this is a really neat game, i loved it. It got really addictive. If only there were sounds. this would be awesome.

You created innovation in roguelike: nice work. And it was fun to explode princess. This game has a good replay value

Very nice project guys, i really love it, please check our game too and if you liked it give us a vote. Look for Road to hell and enjoy.

I've seen a few roguelikes this LD, but this one is particularly fun! I loved turning my enemies to stone and also enjoyed the cute low-res (but really well-done) graphics.

It definitely needs music, SFXs and some extra work (like gameover/win condition/screens) and it could also benefit from better AI (they essentially repeat the same moves over an over if I do exactly the same actions), but as it is right now is already quite enjoyable.

Congrats!

The blood splatter off the not-turned-to-stone princesses is a pretty nice touch :D

I like the concept but it seems like there should be more too it.
