İts goodest 2d game.
Do you not care about linux users?
30 minutes better on my second run...not bad(I'll keep trying)
Se me hizo corto, pero es una buena idea. Solo le hace falta una vuelta de tuerca más, hacer personajes más carismáticos por el camino, un poco más extenso, algún minijuego con el herrero para alargar la espada, que el otro "brille" la espada, cosas así con doble sentido le vendrían muy bien. Ah, y que esté traducido. De todas formas 8/10 por ser entretenido.
i wish i was the dragon
9/10
6m
walkthroughspeedruncompleted in 25 minutes yay
Really nice but so stressful!
great game! The controls are annoying, and that's part of the fun! I'm learning to speedrun it; my current best time is 6:59, but I know I can get better :D
solid 8.5/10, especially for a jam game.
28:11 I guess there wouldn't much of a game if the controls didn't suck. The draining frustration is the "fun" of your game and many others like it. Congratulations on going beyond making a game challenging into exasperating by making the controls a drain psychologically and physically. At least this isn't a children's dumbed down fantasy like the Mario games.
good 8/10
you took 35:35 of my life hahah
awesome game tho
33:36 man btw, fun to play
30 min i said to my mom just let me finish this game but then at length 5 there was so many more things i thougt this game was easy anyways very original and a very good game
sore loser
Does a loser give up?
i agree
troll game, I love it!
I hate you so much... 10/10 game....
Other than that; nice and great game. I liked the fact you could do on 2-3 swords before the biggest one tricks that trivialized some cave parts.
Length 5 was so evil but apart from that good game
How do we pass this?? Otherwise its a good game
You need to flick jump from below using sword
When you wiggle your sword, you can move yourself forward bit by bit, that's how I did it. Takes some practice, as with everything in this game ;-)
I did bad I got 6:48 my best is 5:23 minutes
nice my first try was 19:19
Super fun game, made me retry and retry again!
first time playing, and in under 20 mins! nice game.
Quick little softlock
it took me 608 min and i thought i was so good
That's like, over 10 hours ?!?

Wow, just ... wow ;-) That's next level dedication ;-)
the game is hard but it adds to the experience. all in all love it

Love this game took me a while but i slowly got better 10/10
i really hate you for this game, but i give you 10/10
