damn man this is crazy shit addictive AF jajajaja
I showed this game to my friends and it has started a whole craze with our friend group. Fastest time was around 5 minutes lol.
this game relates to "getting over it" but even harder
Really cool but its a bit too hard to beat
This game gave me huge getting over it vibes, it was kinda sus but I loved it
Are you a genius?! Thats great,but i really hate this!
great game. I was skeptical of repeating the early caves every time, but I quickly realize that the increased length completely recontextualizes everything! I found the last cavern tedious but overall great work!
This was a really good game and I wouldn't mind if the game was even longer.
6:00 on steam
hell yeah

HOLY, this game is fantastic but sooooo tedious, I would 100% recommend
This was an amazing game I beat it in less than 20 minutes, the visuals were amazing, the gameplay was sometimes difficult but very nice.
hello ! nice game
This game is very nice, the visuals, music, and gameplay is amazing, however, a cool addition would be a dagger or knife at the start to represent those that have daggers instead of swords!
HOW DID THIS TAKE ME SO LONG
the last part was pure rage
I DID IT FINALLY

good game, but slightly SUS
did it in 11:20
Ah the Game where you 'S'Lay a dragon
