The game is really fun. Feels almost like Pac Man. I like it how you race with those AI enemies as you all try to collect points.

Great work!

Great Game!

Cool Game. Graphics are nice and music is very good. Feels like Pac Mac.Also raceing with AI is fun.Good job!

Good game, the music ant the pixel art are really nice.

i didn't manage to beat the 2nd level, a lot of knights were stuck in walls in this level.

Really cool and catchy game :D I also love your interpretation of the theme. However, there should be music in main menu, because when I played with music options and got to game, I got attacked by dramatically loud music :P

Great graphics and interesting gameplay as other have said similar to Pacman. I have only one problem with the game: the movement is clunky, it should be possible to just hold down key to move instead of clicking. Other than that pretty good game.

Love the graphical style

slayzar 2019-04-30 19:36

Love the implementation of the "everyone moves at once" mechanic. Really Love the game!

falak 2019-04-30 20:16

This is my favorit theme use so far! The art style is amazing! It's like a modern and better version of pac-man. Unfortunetly I found some bugs but overall is great!

Great idea and outstanding quality of the game. Music and viuals are superb and enjoyable!

I really liked the music :) The controls really need an adjustment, having to press each time the arrow is a bit tiring, and I felt like the AI were random, which made any strategic choice to avoid them useless, which was a bit frustrating. (and also the last level with white tiles was... surprising ^^ ) Other than that the game is nice, with cool music and cute graphics :)

Lovely :)

The game is lots of fun, great job!

pixscope 2019-05-01 20:58

I never tought of such an art style ! I love it !

bartekd97 2019-05-01 21:00

I like this game and the pacman idea where enemies move only when you move. It gives a lot of fun, tho I would really like to see more levels and play longer :D

Cute game. Graphics are good, music is also fair. Good entry!

caeonosphere 2019-05-02 10:29

I won! Enjoyed the cute animations and music.

octopoid 2019-05-02 11:47

This is great! Intersting twist, love the overall ambience, chesty is cute and the music fits pefectly.

I'm not sure the turn based nature of it fits that well, especially with having to re-press the key each time and the time limit, and there seemed to be a few bugs with the knights, but overall I really enjoyed this one!

corqi 2019-05-02 15:24

Nice game! The idea is quite unique, the graphics and audio are awesome! The only thing I would change is to lower the volume of the goddamn coins sound after beating each level (my ears are literally bleeding after finishing this game :cry:, when all other sound effects are in normal volume, this sound is way more loud). Also I think I found a bug (I know, I know, that's not a bug that's a feature :grin:), while playing in level 3. After I died, game said to press any key to restart the game, so I pressed up arrow key and player moved instead of level restart. Out of curiosity I started moving, while I was dead and I even could collect coins, so I collected enough of them to beat the level. To my suprise I went straight ahead to next level.

This game is great!, very polished. The graphics and audio are a Plus!

For me, the controls were a bit difficult, because I kept pressing movement keys (WASD) and it wasn't moving since the animation of the chest didn't ended or the tile wasn't reached. I would suggest to move the player holding a key not pressing it, but keeping the rouge like style; for instance:

if key is been pressed and is_movement_allowed then move to next tile, is_movement_allowed = false... and when the next tile is reached allow the player movement again. It shouldn't be to difficult, and it will be more easier and comfortable to move the player. Overall, very well done guys :thumbsup:

Great graphics, weird AI :smile: The game has some roguelike vibes which is cool.

Here is my playthrough:

Catchy tunes, good art, and a decent maze chase idea. Movement was a bit sluggish though; I do wish that I could just hold the direction button to continue moving, or at least buffer the next movement input. I like the idea of playing as the chest though — that's funny.

Nice work!

bentebent 2019-05-04 10:55

The highlight of this game is graphics and sound for sure. Having to tap the movement keys endlessly gets old very quickly and the AI acts way too random to be considered interesting. Still, the presentation really sells it!

duke 2019-05-04 11:32

I liked the general presentation and style of gameplay. I dind't really get the actual gameplay challenge though. The knights were just running around randomly and I could just run through them, because they would swing their weapong with a tile of delay, never hitting me. Other than that, the only thing that was a little annoying was, that you had to repeatedly press the directions buttons to move. That felt kinda sluggish because some inputs were ignored, until the chest was completely still after walking one tile.

The art was superb and the audio very fitting. Helped a lot to increase the fun factor. But I have to admit that the gameplay loop got old after a few levels. Especially regarding the movement speed, it started to feel like my time was wasted a little.

Very good entry nontheless! I enjoyed myself

hawec 2019-05-06 14:36

Interesting entry!

The art is great and I like the fact that there are several music tracks. The game also fits the theme quite well. The main gripes I have are that the movement is pretty janky and the art in the final level seemed to be unfinished. However it's still a solid entry! Good job!

seizethedia 2019-05-06 16:11

Super catchy music! It was not very challenging and I think the NPC's might be better off moving in a set path instead of randomly (not really sure if this is the case or not). And is there any point to the traps? Great idea though and bumping track!

oropouche 2019-05-07 15:36

Really like this game! the pitch is really funny, I've never played a chest before. graphics are on point and the sound too. the game even has secret areas! only downside is you have to press every jump and now my hand hurt a bit. great game.

pablotitan 2019-05-08 13:11

A game in which your life is literally currency :D Really neat graphics and sounds. Due to this strange AI, knights aren't challenging as I hoped.

elemental-zeal-game-studios 2019-05-15 00:12

Enjoyed playing this one. I liked that the enemies didn't move until I did, but there was still the time pressure to keep you on your toes. The third level got pretty intense. Nice job. :)
