Dang nice work on the art I really like it! The attack seems a bit to small to be used effectively. I like how you have to drop the egg trading its safety for the ability to damage enemy's. Nice work!

That's a cute game^^
You shouldn't have placed the first skeleton so close to the starting point tho, because you have very little time at the start to move and avoid being killed^^
Still, good job there :)
The glowing egg providing light is a cool idea. I like how I had to go back for it and couldn't just leave it somewhere safe while I pummeled skeletons into oblivion.
The movement was a bit laggy for me, not sure if that's a processing thing or if it's my browser or what.
Nice work!
I won!
A nice use of the theme, the mechanic that you have to drop the egg to damage the enemies is clever.
I think the first skeleton starts a little too close, and it would have been nice to have a more interesting animation for the attack.
Obviously more levels would have been nice, but time is always a constraint.
Having a skeleton start attacking you right away was exciting. Start out with a bang. It makes the game feel like there are distinct phases:
Phase 1) Danger! Quick, find somewhere to hide and survive!
Phase 2) Oh no, there are more skeletons. A little bit more calm, but we have to be alert and safe.
Phase 3) I am confident now. There are more skeletons out there, and my egg and I will hunt them all down one by one.
It took me a while to figure out how to play, but then I enjoyed it. Great work! Specially in art/mood.
The trade off between protecting the egg and attacking enemies is very well done. I got really nervous at some point.
I think the only change I would do is to start with the game paused, showing help screen (the one appearing at the top of the page). I died several times just because I was reading the instructions at the top.
Again, great work!
Another egg game, nice
The start should be a little smoother with the first skeleton being further away to let the player get use to the controls. Overall good
For me the game ran very very slow, is it supposed to be like that? I like the core mechanic, very entertaining
I struggled with being able to move before I was killed and then having to reload the page was a bit frustrating. I thought the graphics looked nice.
Me: What is GOING ON
Me 10 minutes later: PHHHH PIECE OF CAKE!
Fun game that is let down by static art. However, the game play is still fun and theme is still there. Good job!
The movement speed could improve a bit, but good game, it's mood is nice!
Would have been nice if I was able to learn the controls before being devoured by skeletons, but once I was able to avoid the first one, I had a fun time! :)
I like the trade-off the player has to make between being able to see and being able to attack, makes for some interesting gameplay.
