Came back to play this game because it is so good!
Also is it me or shouldn't lightning have an electric effect cuz that is what is?
Hey! Will there ever be an Android release? I bought on Steam but would love to have it on my phone too.
can this game be resize in window because i want to sneaky play this game at work?
I have been playing this game for a few weeks and I would like to add my opinion in the comments:
Hi, I REALLY love this game and its concepts, I love all the funny little combos that you can make and all of its quarks that not many people know of, like how traps can deal damage to dashing enemies or how you yourself cannot get hurt by one.
With this said I want to criticize some things:
1. There is an option called "Quick Move", but it doesn't let me "Move Quickly", so either it doesn't work or I'm missing something here.
2. I'm trying to go for 100% and for such I need to do sub-15 Hard mode, and I don't even think that is possible.
3. This is quite funny but I managed to crash the game into a what seems to be a hardlock (Softlock but resetting won't help or isn't possible).
This happened because I managed to end my turn before my Back-dash and my enemy begun his dash before I had hit him, that means that we both hit each other at the same time and dashed trough each other, this in turn broke the calculations for Back-dashing or dashing so much that a terminal error that broke the game.
Quick note, I cannot seem to be able to do any action in this state (not even pressing "menu", the time has stopped and the frames are not loading anymore, the screen to this moment is the same as it is here), and I think that it could happen even on the full release, so I would spend some time trying to fix it.
4. There is also a "double-damage" technique that could be used: If you manage to lag the game enough then you can press space twice in the same frame and the code will execute the same attack sequence twice. Meaning that with a 4-damage double strike arrow, a mass-curse potion and this technique you can deal 4*2 (curse) + 4*2(other attack, yes curse still applies, at least I think) + 4 + 4 for a total of 24 damage to a single enemy or a four enemy kill with one single attack, that is also how I one shot "Kowa the Coward". Don't ask me how it works, but it works.
All in all this is a very fun game and it is something that I would like to complete, a truthfully spectacular game. Keep Developing.
do you know there is a full ver on steam?
Beautiful game. Loved it.
Final boss is too easy, Make it harder
Then buy the full game
Hey, I was playing the steam version and I get confused with the going forwards and going backwards tiles, can I suggest making them maybe blue and red? That way you know going backwards is red even tho the guy is facing the same way you are if you are backwards
Review: It's very fun, well-made, and polished despite its small scope. It appeals to a niche of both precision puzzle combat afficionados and slay-the-spire style roguelike with slow resource and ability accumulation.
It takes a suprising amount of micro and attention to detail, which is fun but new players may not expect, both more fun & engaging and less relaxing & simple than expected.
5/5 stars if you play the demo first to determine that it's the right game for you
NO MOVE CHALLENGE:

Challenge completed
(spam 0 cooldown trap)
i forgot trap pretty busted too..
grappling hook helped lots
Kowa Again is so easy to beat
guys
Can someone rate this build out of 10
damage/10
the no cooldown ice is busted (already had it once). somthing else busted is no cooldown freeplay smokebomb (try it if you can)
The only item that can beat this is this but with more damage. Welcome to the world of insanely overpowered weapons!
No, I would argue that a weapon like a no-cooldown, ice, ranged weapon e.g. the arrow or the trap could be a better pick, but all in all they are still a broken weapons, also you forgot to add the "free-play" effect, but that only gives it a small boost in power for the "freeze" takes care of the rest of the enemy turns.
true, but i couldnt get that (this was on my no movement run)
Ah, well that explains it. On a side note, would you mind answering me this: "Is sub-15 Hard mode possible?", I'm trying to go for 100% base game before going for challenge runs and I'm stuck on this specific achivement.
like i sayed to ur other comment: freeplay no cd smokebomb
If you make a port of this game and put it on playstore with ads to revive and that things, would be amazing haha. Its a great game!
Or maybe for know add a mobile type control to play on the page. showing the controls inside the game to tap it or something.
Game's good. But because the mouse controls, it's not so easy. I can't seem to get past the first level.
Amazing game
roboatino was violently cooking with this one
indeed, i remember seeing a game like this or this exact game (i think) on steam which is how i knew i liked it but couldn't remember it exactly
yeah
guys rate my fit
no movement tiles ; -; ? do you not like to move it move it?..
matter of fact i do not like to ¨move it move it¨, why do i need to go to them if i can just make them cum to me
ah... i guess its just a sub-thing you clearly wouldn't understand.. unless your talking about edging and pelting them with ranged before they even came into existence
exactly
but without the edging, i meant come as in move to my destination to fight me not cumming, i do not edge in the battlefield
|*敬礼します*| あなたがすべきように Pvゾンビ 同志 B )
As a fellow commentor, i must say drip or drown guys?
wow no cooldown 6 damage shuriken hard carries
7/10 (-3 due to lack of movement)
ok thanks now that i think about it i should hqve add a back dash
Dear developer, will there be a mobile port of the game
Very fun game
the most powerful item is this thing
you can just walk to the wall and spam use it
I beat every single round without hits or moving like 3 blocks after I got this
See above, i got a similar version
I thought I'd look at this game for two minutes. Here I am, an hour and a half later...haha, it's really good!
yeah honestly this game is infact very good, how far did you get
This is the perfect game for mobile/tablet. Would buy for iOS/Android in a heartbeat.
fun :)
Very like this game!!!
Excellent game!
very cool game, lots of fun!
I hate turn based games, and still found this fun
This is so good! Definitely will give the full game a try when I get the chance.
im pretty sure someone stole your game and put it in the app store go check out sword sonata
Thanks for letting me know :)
you know what they say imitation is the best form of flattery
im curious, do you have a screenshot of that or somthing?
i didn't even watched it yet and i already see, thx for the vid
This game is open source?
Will the full version ever be moved to Itch.io?
why would it? just make a steam accont and buy it. i even think the creator forgot this existed
Hi! Probably yes, but I'm not yet sure (since I'd also like to keep the free alpha version on itch)
something weird is happening with the spin attack enemies and the back stab ability.
what is happening? i think i can help (btw what is the back stab?)
I miss the way this game made me feel. I wish I could go back and replay it all again for the first time
if you want to feel this again, just don't play it for a really long time ( a least half a year), if you think about playing it, that means it didn't worked, you need to wait until forgettint the existance of the game, and then, one day you will maybe find it randomly and have this feeling again, and wo knows, maybe you will read the comment and find your "old" comment again
i have totaly no idea if it will actually work, it is just a theory
good theory i'll try it
the full game version has a different OST, anyone know where I can find the soundtracks for this demo version? Hour of the Dragon OST goes hard and I'd love to listen to it on repeat
Finally got total obliteration! 1-cooldown Freezing shuriken + 5 dmg swirl blades +3 dmg dash is pretty dang lucky, though XD
how do you get the full version of the game
this game is really good the art style is good the strategies and combos are good the characters are good everything in this game is good. I can't wait for some more updates.
this won't be updated, but a full ver exists on steam (never tried it tho)
thanks for the reply, I will try the steam version.
did you bought it?
yes, I did, and it's cool and polished. thanks for telling me this
good you are enjoying it then.
This game is fo fun! Please let us save the game status to file from the web browser.
Is there a way to bind keys to adding attacks to the stack, rather than using a mouse?
