Neat game. I would've liked to see a tutorial or something to soften the difficulty curve a bit.

I was a bit confused by the mechanics at first but once I finally understood, it was a really nice experience!

A fun game once you get a hang of it that's actually gets quite difficult and requires some strategy. Really enjoyed it!

Hey, that is definitely a nice idea!

It seems that attacking is generally a better strategy than defending, though I get stuck at the first boss, are you expected to get as many attack/defense points up to that point and use your most powerful ability to deal with him?

I liked the graphics and game mechanics , it was a good experience for me !

@firellon Actually it depends, you need to be clever with what you do. I forgot to add HP/Armor indicators on the enemies but you want to have full armor vs the bosses and time your burst

Nice game took half an hour of my life lol

Bit confusing, but i managed to get a bit high!

I enjoyed it a lot really; But i must say i feel like i cheated the game: I used the tanky boss to farm up some ressources, so i think you might not want to have a boss to be this tanky :p!

Still enjoyed it a lot thank you :) ! Fit the theme really well

Would definitely like to see this game expand! Pretty fun.

It's so much fun, I've been playing for a long time and I've noticed that at the beginning a small monster can only do 7 points of damage to you in one attack, yet you get 10 points of armor in two turns, plus having a trade skill gives you unlimited defense and attack points at very beginning.123.png

It's great. Good execution of the idea. Graphics and music are great. And it is very addictive.

Great job!

The game mechanics is quite confusing at first, I think more explanation would be nice. And I was missing information about HP and armor of the enemies. But otherwise, it's a funny little game I enjoyed playing.

The flat design of the spiraling tower is very cool. I love the simplicity of the gameplay, even if there's some complex battle mechanics in play. With some UX streamlining this can be a great fast paced minimalistic hack-and-slash, well done!
