you should make some of the blocks breakable, or something so that the guy can get stuck. good game tho

Imma try this one more time.

Speedrun

Dang my best is 4:35 :/ Better keep trying..

I like how DEEP the story got, although the journey was HARD and LONG, I'm glad that everyone in the end got their happy ending. 😏 Jokes aside, fun game managed to beat it around 30 mins. The characters and story was funny, gameplay was a bit challenging, but not as difficult as people make it to be. Good game, definitely recommend trying it out! 👍

Your game is a very interesting experience. I didn't imagine the Physics based platforming with the Sword to turn out as entertaining as it was. At first I was frustrated, but it soon turned into enjoyment. I am just disappointed the game is so short (and occasionally a bit clunky).    

7.5/10

9:50, god this game is fun, I read the other comments, I must be insane
