The game doesn't seem to work unfortunately :/ when I touch the wall where the king stands I'm instantly gameover, the goblin can just walk right over the wall and then be invincible as well..
Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

Tried the mac version on macOS 10.15.2, but it says that the app could not be launched :( Could be something to do with forcing all apps on 64bit architecture in latest macOS versions?
Hey, I liked that the Goblins slowed down when you hit them! I think I ran into a bug though, the Goblins weren't disappearing when I killed them.
Would have liked the bullet to be a bit bigger so I could see them better, I had trouble tracking my shots
Your game is a good first attempt.
There are a lot of problems like the scale of your graphics, the wall that insta kills you, the GUI and the lack of sound effect. These are problems that can be fixed with more time, a bigger team to work with or experience.
I can't honestly say that I think your game is good but I can tell you that I think it's a good trial and that it shows potential. Keep at it ! :)
Good job on your first entry! It would help if the projectiles that the main character is shooting were bigger, and there was some way to tell where the goblins are coming from.
Also, if I try to go into the king's castle, it's the instant game over. Am I the goblin too? :anguished:
@datagreed I am sorry about it not working on macs . I do not own a Mac so I could never test it I just followed the engines guide lines. Once again I am sorry.
I will begin by saying the fact that this is your first time ever doing this, that's an absolutely fantastic accomplishment. Consider the following for improvement. I'd say make sure to play to your strengths for the next jam i.e. if you want to focus on art, focus on art more - if you want to focus on gameplay, forget making art that doesn't have your full attention and just make something super simple that looks great/cohesive. This way, both art and gameplay suffer. Also, it was quite confusing because, I walked into the tower and got game over for it? The fact that this was completed and was your first time is a feat enough to be proud of forever in itself, good job and would be great to see what you come up with after this!
