I didn't really understand that getting the hearts reduced the rope duration at first and then a level forced me to know about it and it got really fun thinking about the solutions after that

@falkka Thanks for the feedback. There is a level select on the main menu if you wanted to see some of the other levels :)
Cute game! The stepping sound plays a bit too much. The art style is lovely, thought it was cute you could only cross on the cross walks, gotta be safe!
Similar to CrimOudin, I was having fun trying to get my upgrades so I could get a Yacht then I got a "RunTimeError: memory access out of bounds".
Was definitely having some fun once I understood the routes a bit better
I got a bit annoyed trying to look for the word I needed to translate and dying before I could give it an attempt. I was having fun after a couple of attempts when I knew the words, but anytime a new word got introduced I was just thinking "oh no, I'm gonna have to skip through the outro and intro again".
Really cool concept and game though, well done
The music has a good loop, I was just going around dropping little armies on everything that popped up. Had up to about 900 gold was hoping for a boss or a ludicrous amount of enemies to drop all that money on before I stopped, but I didn't see one if its there. Good stuff, was fun!
Ran into a few issues with the cursor, it was escaping my screen and I was clicking on my second monitor. After I lost a couple times I didn't interact with The Well and I ended up getting all the upgrades and setup before The Well started draining.
Had a lot of fun just running around harvesting and collecting, I enjoyed the music a lot, very serene. Got to see the end screen, well done!
@loveapplegames glad you liked it! We built it so we could've created a variety of different win/lose conditions easily and destroying houses was one of them, but we just focused on exploring saving the houses against different Boulder types mostly. I think if we were to expand on the game it would probably have an idea of "worlds" where the objective is different based on the world. Then we could introduce mechanics and ideas one at a time and eventually combine them all in later worlds
I struggled to differentiate what was an enemy and what was my summon in the chaos most of the time, anything that moved I just assumed was an enemy. Fun game, well made
At first I was thinking "I hope this picks up, I wanna TYPE!" then it got really hard, but that was fun! Got 1309 score
I have gotten pretty good at hastily drawing pitchforks. Impy gang, I liked Fishy a lot too.
Some small thoughts I had while playing were to have the input key displayed when picking something up and on the UI for the book. Full disclosure though I didn't read the page before playing and just thought the books were a passive system. I did end up going back and reading the page and found out you can use the books which ended up making living longer wayyy easier. I also would have liked some way of knowing I had enough mana to summon without looking at the mana bar and guessing how much mana it costed, maybe a color change on the player's book or an icon on the cursor of the current summon appears. I ended up just mashing left click.
Fun game, well done
Took me a while to find the rune combination for the next tier of blood harvesting, but once I did it was smooth sailing and fun! Well done
