What a predicament, indeed! I like it! Charming and fun.

Really fun little arcade game! I often wished that I could jump with the Up arrow, making it easier to jump/attack at the same time. Loved the graphics, addictive music and original idea. Game became a bit repetitive after 150 points, was hoping to see more monsters. Very solid entry otherwise! :)

The waves stopped after the merchant encounter :(.

I also find the jump button (z) a bit weird, since there is no use for the up arrow.
Nice idea on the dust as damager, it's really good.

Good game overall, congratulations :).

No need to think. You can joust play it and have fun. I like it!

I actually really had fun with this! I found the controls pretty responsive and intuitive, and liked the sound.

Would love to see more enemies to mix it up further.

There's a fun game here, well done and thanks for sharing!

Solid entry. What was the point of the feather duster as a weapon? I loved the effect you used for the attack, but I didn't get the point. Was this also an idea for another theme?

Very good music and it played smoothly.

I enjoyed the graphics and gameplay. Having the actual dust cause the damage was pretty cool. Really enjoyed this. Nice work.

Pretty fun game. It has a proper old school vibe to it.

Music suited the game well, graphics were appropriate for what you were trying to do.

The game is really fun! And although it definitely could use better art-style and maybe some level design, it just feels sooo pleasant to play

Nice art! Also cool concept.

Loved the feather duster attack, quite amusing! I like how there is a slight delay in some of your actions like blocking so you must commit to an action. Gameplay felt really solid.

Cool old school style game. The blocking mechanic felt really solid and well done.

Quite enjoyable. I had one glitch where i was knocked off the screen by a spawning tombstone, but otherwise i quite liked it.

First of all, why the feather duster? Did you have some particle effects you wanted to play with? My game stopped after the first merchant encounter too, but up to that point it was pretty solid. I don't think the stamina meter was needed though, especially since I barely noticed its effects most of the time.

Simple and sweet. Neat mechanics and an enjoyable style. I liked it!

leom 2016-12-18 20:26

Simple but fun.
I didn't succeed to run the post jam version, but the first one work already pretty well. ;)

blobo 2016-12-23 16:58

Really well done. I enjoy your sense of humor on the instructions menu, and the game was quite enjoyable.

resty 2016-12-24 14:54

At's interesting. Art and sound are good
ai of bats could be more aggressive.

dssiege11 2016-12-26 13:23

Nice little game :) Didn't make it very far though ^^'

fabsy 2017-01-02 18:25

Nice entry. I found it a bit too repetitive but in general it's fun. The blue bar (stamina) doesn't seem to have enough relevance since I can always attack at the same rate.

I liked the sound and humour!

Interesting game! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/-Y1GOAhzfQA
