Fairly fun game, did not regret downloading
It was a very well executed game, I enjoyed the gameplay :D
The gameplay was really fun and enjoyable! Great job
This was a fun, tight, little escort game with an even more person to escort than usual (me, again lol). I particularly enjoyed the "turbo priest" mechanic where I pushed him around to escape bandits faster.
Very nice game! I like the concept and the sound effects hahahaha I also LOVED the "drag everything around" on the menu hahaha I DUNNO WHY, but I found it very fun
Pretty fun. I liked the challenge of moving two characters at once. I also liked that you could shoot the priest and he would take a lot of damage. LOL
it's fun but pretty damn hard lol. tree collision got pretty annoying pretty fast though
Is that the triforce symbol?
The concept is really original. Needs polishing but awesome idea.
Control scheme was very interesting and actually is was actually pretty fun to move around. I thought it was a bit frustrating that the camera was locked on the priest instead of the thief because the priest moves so slow. Collisions with the environment were also very restrictive and a bit frustrating. all around pretty fun to play nice job !
@ownedstuff Thanks for the feedback. The point was that you were just following the priest, but you're right that the priest moved really slow, Maybe I should have added a sprint button so that it wouldn't be as boring.
@tylerstraub I wanted trees to serve as borders, but do you know a way to do that without it getting annoying?
Thsi was really well done! I loved how you used the theme, and it was fun enough that I was replaying it quite a few times!
@thedestoryer i guess it was annoying because tradtionally trees are only borders at the stump. it also felt like there were trees everywhere which made it more frustrating. i understand what you were going for though, not sure of a proper solution
The novel escort mechanic and the medieval(?) concept is pretty cool!
cool idea!
That's a really cool concept
Really nice concept ! The controls were a bit odd and frustrating though. I really like the minimalistic artstyle
I loved the gameplay, which was challenging at first, but after a few minutes I mastered the controls and easily escorted the clergyman to the church. I liked graphics and an awesome mood the game had. The biggest flaws were graphics (I liked the style, but they could have been a bit better anyway) and "cut" ending. "You won" wasn't just enough...
tree collisions were occasionally awkward but the controlling two character system was interesting and the interactive menu was a nice addition
I liked a lot the graphic, it reminded me of South Park when they go to Canada side :D The concept respects well the theme, however I found that the game was rather hard for my taste, I couldn't finish a single game, even one triggered infinite enemies on me x)
Overall, nice work !
I like the geometric artstyle; it worked surprisingly well with basic shapes. As others have pointed out, the controls definitely felt a bit off. Once I got the hang of it, the game had a good feeling of tension to it. Nice work overall!
Not bad! I really like the mechanics! Just the perfect balance of difficulty as well!
Gameplay feels really nice and sound design is satisfying. I also like the concept. It was a bit too challending for me though and didn't really know what to do as soon as enemies started piling onto the priest.
