Neat little Oregon trail adventure game! I'm not great with controls so having a reading-based game was a nice change of pace from the other games I've been trying out. Cute pirate music too!

Hilarious concept! Really silly music too and oddly satisfying to hit pedestrians...
Was super confused at first, but after reading comments I realized I had missed the swap between 3 mechanic. Super glad I played it again, really funny concept and execution. Nicely done!
Your game is SO clever. When my fang teleported me across the moonlight, it felt like magic! I loved the learning curve here with the flying up and teleporting around aspects. I also like the art style you used and your color palette. This game made me keep wanting to play and explore. The one thing I'd change is maybe the movement. Walking seems really slippery like I'm sliding on ice. I wish I had a little better handling on it. Other than that though, really really cool game!
I like the big jumps! I tried to slice the slimes with my sword and it didn't work? so I skipped over them. I also almost fell into the lava but managed to wall climb on my way down and was able to slowly make my way up the wall and back to safety. Not sure if it was intentional but I liked it! I didn't make it very far before I died again. Would love some checkpoints so I don't have to start over from the beginning. Neat concept though!
Hi! Yours is the first game I've tested so far tonight. It was tricky for me to jump into, I wasn't sure why I was dying or what my purple thing did. I know your page has instructions and I did breeze through them (I knew something happened when I clicked x and z, just wasn't sure what or why) I think if you added a quick line of text actually IN game to reiterate that the purple zap turns villagers into skeletons and that you can walk through the sworded baddies without dying but you have to watch for the !!! so you aren't struck. It just seems a little confusing is all. Once I figured it out, it made sense and it did make me want to keep playing to see if there's something at the end but gameplay is a little slow so I gave up after a few tries. I hope I wasn't too harsh with my ratings! Your game plays and it got a few replays out of me! Keep it up!!
Hah! Your game had a lot of fun meta aspects! I played with Intelligence, I'll have to play through the others. When I couldn't pick up the sword I wanted to try with Strength instead! What a twist too, there at the end ;) haha nice storytelling. Quick little enjoyable playthrough.
One of my favorite games this jam so far. Really clean graphics, I didn't experience any bug issues, and the way the puzzles are structured are just enough thinking to warm up your brain but not so much that you get frustrated. Loved being able to win and the fast forward was a Godsend. Really really excellent execution!
Hi friend, make sure your itch game isn't set to private! I think that's why we aren't seeing it yet!
I wasn't sure if I was going to like the game at first but it very quickly became very satisfying to run away from the red circles and get to the star. Winning at the end felt great and it made me wanna play again. Nice concept!
Neat game! I especially loved the music. It was the perfect balance of bouncy and mindless. I could focus but still found myself bobbing back and forth to it. Also the cha-chings were good too. Nicely done!
High score 783! Haha, your game was enjoyable. I think the dragon body parts could use a bit of polish. There was also a pretty steep learning curve with the key inputs. I felt like there was a bit of a delay. Cute music and gems!
Oooof, brutal learning curve on the controls. Lots of replayability though as you learn what things you should and shouldn't touch!
