I didn't notice I'd misclicked in the opt-outs! I opted out of Humor when I meant to opt out of Audio. I was able to add the opt-out for Audio, but I can't remove the other one...

EDIT: Oh. The site was just lagging. It actually DID let me change it. All good!

Pretty neat little game. Can you be destroyed? I basically rounded up all the devils and stood in a corner getting hit while my followers stacked up the money. Bug? Feature? It was fun :) good job!

Cool game! I really enjoyed the pixel art! I just wish I could attack a little quicker!

Nice little game! The pixel art is great as well, as mentioned previously.

Fun game, wish i could have minions bring me gold in real life.

@meenners Yes, you can be destroyed. You have 100 HP and the monsters deal 8 damage per hit. Your strategy is... not quite what I intended and I should probably have the difficulty ramp up based on more metrics than just how many you've killed.

@seanw You COULD attack faster in an earlier build but I discovered that it was just too powerful and you could just spam it and never take damage.

@jared-york @seanw Thank you. :) This is the first time I've ever done pixel art for a game before and I didn't know that was a skill I actually had!

The sprites and NPCs are neat. It has potential! Nice first entry!

coda-highland 2018-12-05 12:33

@boopsgames Thank you, but this isn't my first entry at all. It's my seventh, and I've been programming for 30 years. ^^()

Oh, crap. I'm sorry, man! I read the description wrong (ie didn't really read it). That was stupid of me.

coda-highland 2018-12-05 20:01

@boopsgames Nah, no worries! It happens. I still appreciate the feedback!

This game is really good! I love how it seems so polished and it's really nice.

It is a good game, I like the graphic a lot, but the game stop so suddenly, I have no idea why

coda-highland 2018-12-27 02:48

@hao-tian If it stopped suddenly that means you hit a bug. If you can reproduce it I would appreciate a copy of the error out of the Javascript developer tools.

Well, are those enemies mad? Attacking innocent villagers 3 against 1 without defense?? This definitely triggers some angry mood and the slow walking speed of the hero adds to that. :smile:

It took me some time to figure out that these blinking rays were indicators to where my help was required. I very much like the old-school rpg-like visuals btw.

Thank you for making this.

Wanted to do that quite a while ago but got sick. This is a good entry. Graphics are nice, controls are easy. I've got distracted by the red arrows pointing at mine. Thought it was something I need to do to go down there. But i couldn't find that out. So it's either I am not supposed to do that or I am not that smart :)

Also I feel much better since gave you the last 20th rating so you are now going to the final rating. Congratulations!

I didn't know what's happening at first and was surprised when my villager suddenly almost died >.> Not a bad game overall. I think making an "endless" game in LD is kinda rough as the balance is really hard to get right. On the other hand, those games take less time to make and it makes it up in the end.

The gameplay feels a bit bland as I think you protect 1 villager by endlessly kiting the enemy. A bit boring so I didn't try it for long. Maybe it doesn't work? Who knows.

I like that you make the game in HTML. I did one of my submission with React and it was a lot of fun! Hopefully you did as well :).
