Very, very cool! Really well designed, I love the art style, and the audio was top-notch.

Though I hit a state at the start of one of the waves where nothing spawned. Just kind of wandered the map aimlessly trying to find them :P

Amazing. I wonder of giving that first night such an annoying voice in order for the player to try and kill him was intentional, as that sure was my first experience of success here. Great one, 5's across the board.

johnhackworth 2015-08-25 09:47

looove this one!

muush 2015-08-25 10:25

Good game! Simple and solid in every aspect

shaw 2015-08-25 10:27

Gorgeous graphics and spot on audio. Game play is solid and fun. This is an extremely well rounded game. Excellent work.

peterthehe 2015-08-25 10:27

One of the best games I've seen. I love the graphics and the attack mechanics!

g_o 2015-08-25 10:29

The little cute singer being smashed XDDD
nice entry =]!

gdquest 2015-08-25 13:14

It's quite interesting! The sound effects are pretty nice, and the game definitely feels polished. A little bit slow to my taste, but it goes well with the overall mood. Good job!

qaterknan 2015-08-25 14:07

Oh my god I love the bard!

gigaraptor 2015-08-25 16:19

Never before have I wanted the archers to stay still as much as this game. Great job.

hoqjed 2015-08-25 16:27

Great gameplay, well paced, and fantastic presentation. I felt the monster was a bit slow which made chasing archers annoying. Stellar job!

buffalophil 2015-08-25 16:27

Hey, that was great!!!

pierrec 2015-08-25 20:16

Woah! This is a great game! It could have been harder, I enjoyed finishing it

vaida 2015-08-26 09:35

Good music, great graphics! The gameplay was fun too, with varied units. The world felt a bit bare, though; some houses or something would have been nice. The little things the units said were hilarious. I enjoyed it, good work! :)

grouflon 2015-08-27 09:20

Woah, this is just amazing !

meadgard-games 2015-08-27 10:03

This game is amazing,we love the graphics and gameplay!!

tackorama 2015-08-28 07:13

Terrific idea and very simple. Loved the monster. Hated the cooldown on the attack. Horses and soliders very comic.

angryrebel 2015-08-28 07:14

Neat game! Great art!

secularbaron 2015-08-28 09:18

Well made all around! It's mood made me smile!

vikingpotato 2015-08-28 20:36

The folk singer with the string instrument is the best thing ever!! The game is fantastic! I don't remember being so entertained by a LD entry!

foreverisbetter 2015-08-29 10:15

looks really polished. very cool

seconddimension 2015-08-29 10:17

I really enjoyed this, played it all the way through to the end. It was a nice, simple idea and had a lot of character. Good work!

samh 2015-08-29 10:21

★★★★★ Amazing. The beast is undefeated! But is it also satisfied? NO! IT WANTS MORE!

Excellent ideas here and there, the “voice acting” is really funny, the music and SFX blend in very well. My nitpicks: there is something odd with the monster walk animation, the legs and arms seem off sync, but I can’t really tell exactly; also I could not find any feedback on whether my special hit count was.

dickpoelen 2015-08-29 13:52

Nice game. Love the bard!

sanju 2015-08-29 15:28

Loved the graphics and gameplay. Fun game.

literal_games 2015-08-29 17:48

Nice, great visuals, and sound. Loved the little narrator character as well, that was really innovative!

kizler 2015-08-29 18:12

I really like the waves aspect of this game. And the bard between levels is hilarious!

jofra 2015-08-29 18:26

5 star game for me! loved everthing! X) awesome entry.
Very well animated

crucknuk 2015-08-29 18:57

This is a good entry! The feeling and the atmosphere is great! smash knight is fun! good job!

graebor 2015-08-29 19:12

Cute! I like the use of the bard as a tutorial you can skip/kill whenever you want. Nice audio work :)

teamcosmitronique 2015-08-29 19:29

Good design. My favourite part was the bard.

01101101 2015-08-29 19:40

Clearly one of the best jam game I've tested so far :)
I love the bard :D
Cool pixel art, nice music and sfx, fun gameplay... Great job to you guys!

dunin 2015-08-29 20:04

gorgeous game!

superfluous 2015-08-29 20:49

One of my favorite games of the jam. So much fun, and so funny. I love the little bard.

josriley 2015-08-29 23:37

This is super well made. I love the animation!

boywithstick 2015-08-30 05:49

Fun game. The character movement was a little slow for me. I really dug the graphics and audio.

m43c0 2015-08-30 10:00

Me wanna SMASH!!!

roaringcatgames 2015-08-30 20:56

The sass on that BARD! Hahahhaa I love this entry! Stars all around. The bards' shitty music made me angry and I love it.

Great job, guys!

commanderstitch 2015-08-30 22:55

wow, so cool. Loved so much of this, the knights, the bowman, the horse, the bard, the monster. The genius! Things i didn't like. Man it was slow. Took soooooo long to catch some of those archers. :/ that damped some of the fun for me. Otherwise awesome!!!

steboots 2015-08-31 11:17

Oh, the limit on attacks made that hard, but it was fun though! I think the size of said monster to enemies/heroes was perfect, something about it made me feel really good about attacking!

selftitled 2015-08-31 11:21

Love the pixel art, the little guys are so cute almost a shame to kill them . . . almost

It would be better if you had more than one attack though

joshua_burr 2015-08-31 11:22

My favourite entry so far. Looks and sounds great and I love that bard. Slightly painful trying to dodge and chase archers when you are so slow but I guess that is a part of being a monster! :D

atomicwastinc 2015-08-31 11:27

everything about this is really great! very well done!

reddogstone 2015-08-31 11:27

I enjoyed playing this entry a lot. The game mechanic works well. I hope you will expand on it. Would love to see such a game evolved into a giant raging beast feast of gore.

hjalte500 2015-08-31 12:06

Awesome game that loooks very good. Can get a little repetetive though

ndebruyn 2015-08-31 12:21

I love this game. The fine details makes it amusing.

tmpxyz 2015-08-31 14:00

The bard is really lovely, could we crush him more?

Biruts 2015-08-31 14:25

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.

adsilcott 2015-08-31 14:55

Very fun and polished game. Audio was great too.

chuckeles 2015-08-31 15:28

The bard is the best part :D Awesome game!

veoviscool12 2015-08-31 16:41

Fantastic game. I enjoyed the concept, the art was top notch, audio fit perfectly. It was pretty much perfect, I can't think of anything I didn't enjoy. Five stars all the way. :)

digiman572 2015-09-01 06:09

Really cool game! The gameplay was really fun, and it was pretty funny to read those dialogues coming from the bard. I loved how you can kill the bard whose giving the tutorial, most awesome skip button ever! :D

pantoufle 2015-09-02 07:33

Really great game!
I love the art and music! It's amazing what you managed to do in such a short time. The gameplay is simple but well balanced (I think) and fun.
I had trouble figuring out how many knights actually remained, during the final wave I had two different messages "only one knight left" from the guard and "44 knights left" at the top of the screen. Maybe it was 44 guards left?
Anyway, that's a really great entry! Good job guys!

leom 2015-09-05 20:51

Very fun,
And a nice mood too.
But, is their a way to "no kill" the bard ? ^^

scorched 2015-09-05 23:11

I appreciate graphics and humor! Well done!

zncatlaw 2015-09-07 19:28

Absolutely amazing! You nailed the audio, with that charming bard voice and the positional sounding horse hooves. Amazing.

shawn42 2015-09-07 19:49

ALL THE STARS!! Loved this. I played through the whole game and really enjoyed the humor and the feel. It was slightly too easy, however I did die on the last level, after winning the game an arrow hit me. =P Neat little bug having the bard tell me that I was undefeated over a "Game Over" background. :D Amazing entry, be very proud of this!

mar3k 2015-09-07 21:13

Great looking and fun game, it gets little bit repetitive after while, but I still had fun even in the last wave I also like that bard at the start and the music. Really nice game!

megapaul108 2015-09-08 12:02

It was made really well I loved the graphics the last level was hard for me I didn't finish it. overall really good.

bombjack 2015-09-10 11:03

nice art and animation. You feel the weight of the colossus by its animation. You should change the music ;p Good job.

oldpeculier 2015-09-14 17:15

I'm not quite sure what the appeal is here. The art is nice. The concept is sound. But it's an extremely simple game, and fundamentally I don't see that it requires much skill. Of any game I always ask: what's the difference between a skillful player and a poor player? In this case, you walk around and bump into little guys. I'm not sure that a good player would be much more successful than a weak one. Where's the fun?

matzigon 2015-09-14 17:27

Quite nice entry. Could have been a bit more challenging or complicated. Good job! :)

pirate_shell 2015-09-14 19:03

This game was very charming! I loved the sound of it, it was extremely satifying and cute at times. The gameplay was simple, but functional and I simply loved the way the little guy before the waves was implemented. Stellar entry!

krunoslav 2015-09-14 19:38

I love the art syle! Funny troubador! :)

boaheck_artgent 2015-09-14 20:55

Perfect game. Exactly what I was looking for with this theme well done.

larzan 2015-09-14 21:07

Love the gxf style, good monster anim, fun to play :)

nidzakornjaca 2015-09-14 21:32

Great art and great sfx!

lallous 2015-09-18 08:12

Awesome visuals and solid gameplay. Now expand on this :)
