i would love to see mechanics like this used in a game where you have to kill enemies. could be a new kind of foddian game with waves or something and the difficulty would be from the difficult controls on the sword.
In my opinion there should be a more gradual increase in difficulty. It can be frustrating until you get the hang of the mechanics
this too is yuri
Holy Helll that's increadibly frustrating to complete using only W, D, and left and right arrow
22:17 Fun. For my second run bcuz I don't think I even completed the game on my first. -_-;
truly a foddian game .. im on length 3 and its getting deeper and deeper lmao but great game!!! pray for me guys
My first play was 50 (51:25 if we're being specific) minutes and it was pretty difficult, at least once you got to the 5th length. Overall though it was a really nice little experience to play and it definitely gave "Getting Over It" vibes
Getting Over It 2.0
9:56, lets go :P
im gonna kms bcuz of that game (love it, recommended, 10/10)
I WROTE THAT COMMENT WHEN I WAS AT LVL 2 SWORD... AFTER COMPLETED GAME THAT TOOK ME 75 MINUTES I DO NOT RECOMMEND, UNBLESS YOU LIKE GOING THROUGH HELL (or you're actually a good gamer unlike me lol) DO. NOT. PLAY.
and now for real, that game was horiblly good, i will not play it again but no game made me feel so many emotions at once, laughing, crying, raging, a real emotion rollercoaster. Great way to spend time
35:17, wow, what a game
Kill this game with fire. A game I was only going to play for 5 minutes ended up taking 50. My fingers hurt from holding the mouse so long, and my throat is sore from screaming into the air
51:16
i love thia game
Nice Sword Bro!
I hava grande penus
Wanna cum to my house
Wat up my Nigas
Willpower.
Determination.
That's the only two things I had during this FORTY MINUTE ADVENTURE!!!!
Bloody hekkin heck...
Oh and also, why rargh harg BLARGH ragh
Sorry my goblin roommate stole my computer, anyways, why is that dragon so pleased?
my best is 69:38 😏😏😏
i made it to 7:13! still one of my favourite games to play!! :DD
"how deep is your resolve?'
NOT DEEP ENOUGHH
Very rage inducing, I gave up after 20 minutes on one single level :'(
10/10, wonderful game
I’m the goodres
best time is 4:30
New record
I love this game!!
my best time is 4:40:922
F- Four hours... Forty minutes... oh wait thats milliseconds, mb, I'm so stupid honestly
Really, really, really gooooooooooood!
Great mechanic.
Love it & hate it at the same time. AAAAHHHHHH! :)
Great game, very frustrating at times, but thats part of the greatness.
I left it overnight so my score is.... not great haha
"overnight"
THATS 3 WEEKS
Nahhhh
that's minutes
That's only like 8 hours
(I left it longer than that, it must have paused itself at some point)
Imagine i left it for 3 weeks haha
Oh wait, I confused minutes for hours..
I played this game along with others and it was very fun and challenging. I gave up near the end because it got so hard for me, but I will def go back to it and try to finish it. Awesome work.
trash game physics dont make sense
It's not trash, its just difficult to master!
first run, just under 20 minutes
al fin logré superar mi récord!!!
I QUIT FREAK YOU FREAK THIS GAME
My condolences upon you.
this is so hard dude i started crying on the fifth level its taking me so long
bro I know but once I beat it, it was soo good I played it 2 more times and it was just as painful lol
Only took 53 minutes
took me about 30 first time I did and 5 minutes was me trying to get in the gold after first joining the game
I managed to half my time
I BRO I LOOKED AT THE DRAGON ND wait if the dragon is OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
That dragon is zestier than lemon zest
7:13 baby lets GOOOO
Finnaly beat 10 mins
