Loved the images! Really cool.
I shouldn't brough a sword to a fire fight :)
Reference to the library of Alexandria hit me hard, its still too soon.
Love the background characters
Nice visuals and music. I actually liked the dialogues and the names of the enemies. The speaking parrot was in the beginning was nice. The location were pleasing. It´s obvious, that you put a lot of effert into it. Good job. Would have used another font though :D
Cool art and really nice gameplay, I enjoyed playing it
Took a while to get the hang of it. It's quite tough, the Nec-Romancer was the hardest, probably because that's where you get used to the system but the lobster was a breeze in comparison. Loved all the costumes and the blue socks with fishes(?) I wish there were a few more frames but i suppose it was hard enough to do with these :)

Nothing beats this moment of pure joy. Had fun learning how to dodge and parry properly and the 'actors' involved were all really funny.
I like the graphics, how you mixed photos with draws. It was hard to get the rythm and to predict which move will they use next. Maybe just I'm not so skilled with the sword I guess... xD
The gameplay itself was kind of rough. The frames were low enough that it was very difficult to read what was going to happen next. However the fact that you had people dress up to be characters in this game gives you massive points for style. Very interesting and unusual entry. Well done!
Love the graphics!! Super unique way to make a lot of images, scenes and characters with the LD timeframe. Super innovative XD Very fun and funny style overall.
I really like the art style, very unique. The gameplay was a bit simple and a lot harder because of the low frame count. I really think it would have helped to have at least twice as many frames for animation. Solid entry, I feel the "unstable" was more in the setting than gameplay.
nice game to play! good graphics and audio. overall enjoyed it! nice job
The Graphics is weird AF, but I love it, hahaha - Great style of game! Took a while to get the hang of it, but it was fun
Real cool game
this game has so much character and charm, I'm in love, great dialogue and an interesting mechanic. gj
Nice game! Probably one of the most fun art directions I've seen. Unfortunately, I kinda find the telegraphing of the moves to be far too slight past the first fight, I ended up being forced to mash - and although I really love how it looks, the framerate makes it all the more hard to read.
Anyway, good entry, quite funny stuff!
Great job!
The art style is really original and brings a real breath of fresh air! The game offers a real sense of challenge and can't be tamed in a few tries. A lot of work has been invested in this game, whether it's for the graphics, the gameplay or the music. A great success!
Really interesting looking game, reminded me of old rotoscoped game! I found the gameplay kind of annoying, as if you blocked too late, it felt very difficult to hit the enemy. A little more forgiveness on the hit window would be really appreciated
Fun game, we don't get enough Punch Out homages, although I couldn't beat the third fight, some of the tells looked very similar in a way and the response window was quite small.
Really cool graphics! The game itself was also fun although I still have to get the hang of it. But of course, what really won me over was the parrot mentor! 🦜
Very interesting submission!
Especially the graphics stood out. I assume the enemies and background figures are the developers? Great idea! The intro dialogue visuals (parrot and castle) were pretty nice. I even took a screenshot of it.
On the negative side, the animations were too choppy and made me feel a little uncomfortable. A few extra frames would have been nice :D Also, I felt that the animations made the game harder than the actual difficulty was.
Anyway, all in all a very nice entry with awesome humour.
Background music was also enjoyable and fitting.
Really interesting game. Graphics are funny, audio is well done! I think it is a bit to hard at the beginning, but it entertained me quite a long time :-)
I couldn't read my opponents move, wheather to duck or jump or block. But I really had fun trying. Just at some points the fact that everything is moving (like animated even the background people) got a bit distrascting for me. Maybe the background can have a slover pace. And looved that you got into costumes for this, that gave me pure joy! Thank you!
I see some Mortal Kombat vibes!! :sweat_smile:
I like the graphics style it gives the game its own esthetics. Well done!!
Great images and story, very imaginative! The music gives a nice touch to it - and I simply love the arara bird as beloved mentor! :laughing:
I have to say I envy people that could beat any of the opponents, though. I found the game very hard to play - but I don't play games like this very often, so this may be on me. I kept ducking when I should have jumped (and vice-versa), and missed several attacking opportunities.
I find the idea (and execution, specially art-wise) very very creative. Congrats on the game!
Ahhh, such crazy cool game! I just like graphic on preview, interested in game... That's awesome) Great story, like sounds, i have so much fun playing your game)
Hahah that was fun. The visuals alone made me smile.
