Boy did I get fat and slow after a while...
Love the art style and the original idea.
Outrageously charming game, brilliantly made and that's the sort of download size I expect from something that was made in a weekend ;) Also your advice about ham and wine works in real life too! I'm so hungry now.
So fun and really a nice idea the shapeshift of the knight
Good job
Great game! Love the detail of the voice!
Completely charming art and animation. Loved it! Not sure how much strategy was involved other than wildly swinging and then waiting for my cart to regenerate at barricades. Great idea using the knight's obesity as a way to shapeshift. Overall, top notch entry.
Amazing graphics and nice idea for a game.
Extra points for the music.
Nicee!! I loved the pixel art style, the mood and getting fat!!!
As you said, it does need balancing, but it was still so enjoyable.
I really like this game! Its a pity that its so short. I would have played it a long time i think because i thinks its a good idea of shapeshifting. Good job!!
I can't stop saying "barricade ahead". Much fun!
I LOOOVE THE SOUND
Great twist on the theme. Was the knight stopping to eat the pork at all costs intentional, because it was hilarious. Really enjoyed this one.
GAme play is simple to grasp and fun. The work on the HUD and the sound design ("Barricade ahead !") really allowed to understand without needing more words. Idea is pretty good and the graphics and sound work very wall.
A few things : i don't feel the stamina bar is useful for the gameplay. Also, maybe if our attacks knocked back the ennemies the hits would feel more satisfying and we would have more control over the fight.
The logs have a bit too much health too and the ennemies are too few.
Overall i had lots of fun, very nice entry !
that was fun :D
Top graphics ;)
Just Awesome, first I did not know where the "Shapeshifting" is happening, but then I just simply got out of shape :P...
Really hilarious :P
Finds out that trees and rocks can be stabbed
Proceeds to stab a rock for a minute
Realises they can't be destroyed
Becomes sad
It's hilarious that eating ham is more important than saving the king
Today I've learned that eating all my fallen enemies might be not an healthy habit ;)
Wow this was really a cool game :D Loved how I had to choose between fitness and health even though those two usually go hand in hand :P
Loved the graphics and audio! Very charming simple game.
Awesome game. Was immediately drawn in by the graphics. Combat could have been a bit deeper... Maybe add a special move or something.
Amazing art! i really enjoy the game :D
Super cool game! I almost got to the end lol!!!! I'm not sure I picked up on the shape shifting part... i might have missed something. Very fun game though. Nice work
I enjoyed the game, I did not follow your advice and was victorious as a sack of pork.
Great game. The graphics were superb and the gameplay was very charming. I love the use of the theme.
Nice sound, great entry, a little bit simple but enjoyable ^^
Cute little game, beautiful visuals. Really enjoyed it.
Incredible animations and pixel art style. Congratulations!
It worked on Chrome, but it was really buggy. At one point the king just went ahead over all the wood, and at another point I just died with still a lot of HP left. But it was a fun little experience
Awesome lil game. Get's a bit frustrating towards the end. All in good humour.
Great musci and art man. Really enjoyed it. =]
Cool entry! I think it´s a bit repetitive but the idea is very cool. The Knight is supposed as strong as fat? :D
I liked the art, good game!
Fantastic art!
Really good art and audio. The knight gets a bit too slooow sometimes, so I think that needs a bit more balance.. Also I found out that I could let the king+cart skip barriers and run to the exit if I stayed put behind and waited for the green bar to fill up... :)
Love the art and the use of theme.
"Barricade ahead"
To stay fit, a knight must swing his sword - especially after a sumptuous meal of orc chops.
This was so much fun to play. I liked the concept of the knight becoming slower after eating a lot. It's quite original. The knight's increased weight wasn't so easy to notice though.
Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
Nice entry! Great graphics and music, but the gameplay could be a little more exciting.
Not bad but after several tries it seems completely impossible to beat, maybe I just suck. Graphics were cool and sound fit nicely. Certainly a different take on the Theme
Graphics, animations, story, all so good and so funny :) It was not that fun to explore the environment after some time, but overall, you did a great game!
Great graphics, mood, audio. I thought the gameplay was promising but could have benefited from faster fights. Multiple hits and the stalling to eat had me waiting alot.
Lovely graphics! I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/1j0YT8wm6Kc
neat game about a fat knight
One of my favorite so far, really nice pixel art ! First time i play , the king get out of the screen and then dont stop on wood any more otherwise it is really cool
It's not impossible at all :D
I made it through on the first try. The idea of gaining weight is such a great take on the theme and it was presented perfectly!
It was a bit annoying that eating the pork was done automatically and took so much time, so I almost lost my king because the knight was busy eating instead of fighting. But I turned out victorious in the end.
Good game!
I really liked the art and the music. The mechanic where you get fat was also great. However, I found that the forced delay when eating meat dropped by enemies was very frustrating since pretty much every time I killed an enemy I had to sit and wait.
Really fun game :)
Just one thing, the eating animation stopping the character from moving is a bit annoying.
Great job!
Great concept of shapeshifting xD.
I really like the medieval style.
But it was very easy to lose weight, not like real life!
The graphic and animations are really well done. The music is also well fitting. The knight is sometimes too slow by my opinion.
hehehehe nice approach of shape shifting!
belly shape shifting of the most common form of shape shifting!
I think you can work better this relation between food and speed, for me it was really better not eating in the entire gameplay
Graphics are really cute! If you use a little more contrast between environment and characters it will be even better
You can put a little more feedback on the combat, one frame of white sprite for when the enemies are being hit will do the trick :)
Nice entry!
