This is an interesting take on the theme, though it lacks polish and could benefit from more extensive refining. Overall, nicely done.

Is there a way to kill the enemies before they dart at you?

deranonymos 2019-10-06 23:45

@czorio just be fast enough ^^, and also there might be the hidden armor :D this game is 100% beatable

Oh snap! I love how you get to draw everything. It's dorky, but I drew the character from my own game, so he got to go an a brand new adventure. Super cute game!

Stuck with the theme perfectly but the game is barely functional

Nice!, you get to draw everything, that's an idea i haven't seen before. But i have to say that the game is a bit wonky. I got stuck in a tree, and had to restart the game to get out.

I liked the drawing part.

The drawing part is fun :) Graphics are beautiful, and I love the sound of the pencil x)

A really interesting game. I like the drawing part a lot, pretty creative use of the theme! It would've been nice though to see something like a preview of the items you add to your hero while drawing. The exploration also works quite well and getting the upgrades is fun. The major negative aspect is the combat, which seems quite unpolished. I got stuck in a corner after defeating an enemy, unable to get out, maybe you forgot to turn off their colliders upon death? Apart from that though, I enjoyed this game and could very well imagine an extended and polished version of it, good job!

I could make a joke here about your game having terrible graphics, but overall I definitely liked your interpretation of the theme. The sound effects while drawing were a nice touch too. However, the final game itself feels really incomplete. The level is barren, the combat is unresponsive, and I felt there could be more creative uses of the drawing mechanic.

Also, is anyone else having a problem drawing? Maybe it's just my outdated graphics card, but whenever I start to draw the game either zooms in really close on the top-left corner, or it draws my image really small and upside-down in the corner of the canvas (Windows 7)

That was the first time I ever played a game with my graphic tablet! That is PURE AWESOMENESS. Would be just perfect if I could move/interact using a tablet as well. A woman can dream :smile_cat:

Thank you for this gem o a game!
