The game concept is great, it's simple, it's straightforward, and for a short game, the idea of click to win works well. I enjoyed it, although I was a bit confused where the sacrifice theme played in.
So for my list of pointers:
- The reaper needs to move faster or the required effort points need to be higher, I didn't have to use any of the items on my first try. The game has to force the player to exchange effort points in order to get saved from the reaper, otherwise the game is a bit too easy.
- A few minor coding errors for the title screen and end screen, but those don't take too much away from the game, so it's more of an afterthought really. Specifically, not all the words in the end screen were visible on screen, and for the title screen, a back button from the controls would help massively.
That's it from me, and for one of your first games, wow, good job Abso. Can't wait to see how far you go. <(._. < ) pokerface out
EDIT: Noticed that the reaper didn't come back after one of the items was used. That is all.
