The animations look great but really small ... Things feel out of proportion. After you get the hang of it plays well. Random level progression nice :)

Played 3 times - came to level and discovered how to Drop down a platforms got and disappeared... if there were a restart or respawn would have continued to play.

I played it four times so far... It's really nice and addicting =).

A few problems I have found so far is that there is no way to respawn (bug?);

Healing items would be nice at some point;

In some levels, the player spawns on monster which gives you no reaction time to protect yourself from it;


The monsters kinda gather into one place under the platform because they somehow see the player which is in an upper level (they shouldn't), it would be nice if they would go towards the player only if they are in their axis of vision.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I'm pretty surprised you seemed to enjoy it even a little bit, I didn't think it would get any attention.

@SamuelSousa: Yeah I know what you mean by out of proportion. the hitbox for the sword swing was a little off, also when I started drawing the evil eye, I started with a 25 x 25 frame and didn't even think about how that was like twice the size of the player until I finished it, I was already far behind so I figured redrawing it on a smaller image would take up too much valuable time and decided to just keep it how it is even though it looks dumb.

@Draakhex: I'm glad you found it addicting! but yeah the respawn was just not implemented as I didn't have time, the deadline crept up on me really fast, and I barely got the player being able to die in there before I had to submit it because I was out of time.
Also I did implement raycasting for the enemies to check if the player was in their line of sight before following you, but it glitched out and I didn't have time to debug the algorithm before I had to submit.

Thanks again for the awesome feedback guys!

Hey :) In my opinion this graphic for a first time is really good. I also like the animations and the sound :) Keep going!
