Interesting Game! I liked the art a lot. Not sure what the inventory system was for though.

Nice job on the game. I love the art and the overall mood of the game. The mechanics were smooth and easy to understand. It was a lot of fun, I enjoy collecting sticks. Great job on the game.

@rsheepdv Thanks for playing, I'm glad you liked the art! We originally had a much bigger idea that involved the inventory system, such as using the "limited space" theme to make it so that the inventory can not only increase but also shrink in size, and allow you to collect many weapons and items that have durability. Unfortunately we didn't have the time to implement all of this.

@aluminumfool Thanks for playing, I'm glad you liked it! Haha yes, collecting sticks, the main mechanic of the game.

Interesting artstyle with that pencil drawn look! Game definitely feels very incomplete. That lack off attack animation is a bit jarring to me. Otherwise it looks like the start of an interesting game

@arivaneverdingen Thanks for playing, glad you liked the music and art!

@davision Thanks for playing! Glad you like the art style, I was trying something new with a pencil brush that kind of smears downwards. Yes, we definitely agree that the game is incomplete, we had a lot more planned that we couldn't get to, such as the inventory system having a bigger role in the game mechanics as well some some mechanics that had to do with the lighting. But I'm glad you liked what made it into the game!

I really loved the artstyle and the mood, they were great. But sadly, it is all there is. As I understand, the game just wasn't completed, because there is nothing to do, except walk and kill some kind of zombies, or at least I didn't understand what I was supposed to do.

I really like the funny little main character thingo

The music and art here show promise, it's a shame it doesn't coalesce into something more.

@bobafett89 Thanks for playing, glad you liked the art style! Oh heck yeah we had so much more planned than walking around killing enemies. Unfortunately progress was slow and we couldn't do much in the time limit.

@daxtear Thank you!

@hexyvexy Glad you liked the art and music! Absolutely agree, we also wish we could have done more with the game.

The graphic and music of dark fairy tales create a good atmosphere.I think I need some instructional guidance with gameplay.Looking forward to the development of the game!

didnt really know what to do with the sticks in my inventory, kept hitting the hat dudes but i was lost to be honest :(

@cocoplant Thanks for playing, glad you liked the atmosphere! Yeah, unfortunately we didn't have the time to implement very much gameplay, so you probably have no need for instruction because you have probably already done everything you can haha.

@enderswype Thanks for playing! Yeah, unfortunately that's all there is really, we didn't give ourselves enough time to do much else. We originally had plans of various types of weapons in addition to the stick, all with durability to eventually break and force you to find other weapons.
