That was amazingly fun. There was a lot of complexity in the combat system that was fun to experiment with, and the difficulty ramp was perfect. It reminded me quite a bit of divekick with the way the simple mechanics made something with so much depth. Great entry.

I cannot play because a missing dll (VCRUNTIME140.dll)

Nice entry, quite fun for it's simplicity. Some small things though: It's a bit hard to see what's going on with the last level though with the bright background. And the music is fairly loud for me.

I really liked it, quite fun and did a good job!

imdigitaljim 2015-08-24 04:18

Pretty nice, love the feel of it! Please redistribute the VC2015 redistributable in your download, that's why it's called a redistributable! I have difficulty downloading it from the link provided (in Chrome, had to disable some security settings about unsafe scripts before it would download...)

resonious 2015-08-24 05:21

Good point, Jimbly. I will get on that.

This is very very very awesome!
The mechanics are so that it feels like the AI is on an equal footing with the player so the increasingly difficult duels are incredibly engaging.
And the end boss levels finished it off beautifully!

Mac version please!!

This program can't run because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing from your computer.

This game was very fun and the combat was very well made. Good job overall.

Good fun, audio excellent (love the music), nice mechanics. However I don't see how it fits the theme though.

jojocanard 2015-08-24 17:46

Very elegant

maramasa 2015-08-25 14:05

Nifty game with solid mechanics. Great style and audio. Awesome work!

I've finally beat the final boss, wow, i really had fun playing this.

gnuwilliam 2015-08-25 17:27

Really fun game! Like the art

leom 2015-08-26 16:47

Nice one,
Good graphism and audio.
Very fun to play.

I thought it was way too simple at the start, but the gameplay got really interesting and fun at the end.

And then I took a look at the source code... wow. You programmed everything from scratch using straight SDL and a single main.cpp file. So sick!

bradur 2015-08-27 04:28

The mood was awesome! The music, the sound effects, the visuals all contributed to it tremendously. The gameplay was great as well. Cool idea!

Super cool dueling game. Surprigly deep for a ludum dare game, I had fun time! It's not very clear at which step of the progression I respawn when I die, so that was a bit confusing. Not sure I understood why horns came out of my head all of a sudden :)But that matched the theme at least. The rewards for killing would have been improved by a cool simple animation for killing your opponent. The game feels a bit raw currently. Still, excellent compo entry.

heyzeus 2015-08-27 19:26

Simple but very effective, loved it.

pietro-ferrantelli 2015-08-27 21:26

Good entry overall, I had a lot of fun playing this and the presentation is great ! Keep it up, dude ! Really nice work

felipeddest 2015-08-28 02:24

This entry reminds me of Bushido Blade from PS1. Nice concept, good pixel art, good job!

pebkac 2015-08-28 08:58

Nice graphics and good work on the audio. Especially the change in music later on feels very good.

The graphics style makes it kinda hard to see what's going on, though...

konwlege 2015-08-28 20:48

It says not valid Win32 application.
I downloaded 32-bit version and on my XP 32-bit.

ruerob 2015-08-29 06:06

You have done wonderful work on this. Great applause! The music is well done and fits the game. Very well thought out gameplay and mechanics. I like that simple but atmospheric graphics and that nice sounds!

jstclair13 2015-08-30 16:09

Cool!

sedsibi 2015-09-03 03:53

This was amazing. Great job. I loved the art style.

jangobrick 2015-09-04 04:33

Wow, that was awesome! The very simple gameplay idea does not mean it lacks anything. There is great music, the graphics look nice, and most importantly I had a lot of fun playing it. Very well done!

valid4life 2015-09-04 04:35

The combat system was an interesting take! I kept looking for some form of attack but then figured it out ahah! Very well made!
