How does the game fit the theme?
You need to save biscuit in a dungeon, kill enemies and bring it back.
You risk that enemies can kill you.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Base UI elements are from our other game (called Iterum) and we modified it to fit the theme of the game, few UI elements in the game are from internet (just inventory background image and power up image if we implement it to game in time).
Music and weapon sounds are from pixabay (we modified SFX from pixabay to fit in our game).
We used A* pathfinding in our game for enemies and hint line.
For more information about all links to assets we downloaded from internet, see legal.txt file on our game site (we will keep updating it if we add some other assets to our game).

This was very cute, and the assets fit nicely!
Interesting interpretation of the theme, I guess using up your hints involves some risk.
Weapon animations were cool, but the sounds did get a bit repetitive.
Great aesthetic, I had fun!
Good game!
Liked the visuals and the concept.
The fighting mechanic feels kinda bad though tbh, weapons feel slow and unresponsive, and enemies feel unbalanced like why a rat doesn't die from one hit of a sword?? I don't know if this is the intent but unless you hit and run (which isn't fun) you will always lose health even against one rat.
IMO , it would be better if you made the player stronger to the point where he can kill small enemies with one hit, you could also add a block/defence ability.
Very fun game! You can really tell a lot of heart and thinking went into this one and it paid off! The game design was very engaging, finding a new weapon was always a fun surprise.
Great game! Love adventuring on a dungeon! Visuals and audio on spot!! ✨✨😊🎉
Thanks, we are glad you enjoyed it!

Super cool, fun, chaotic, really liked howyou could switch weapons during the game.
It was a lot of fun! The visual dynamic between complex backgrounds and simple characters was actually really cool. The lighting gave it a more natural look as well. However, I think I was taking damage on the start of an enemy animation rather than if the animation hit, which could be a bit frustrating since you couldn't kite enemies even when using large weapons. I was unsure of the different weapons' benefits.
Fun game, agree with others about the combat system sometimes feeling a bit unresponsive. I also didn't feel like there was much difference between most of the weapons I picked up. Overall cute game, liked the art and style :)
A worthy bid for the winner, it plays, looks and listens perfectly. The only thing was, what was the purpose of the traps? Did you ever think that they could be bypassed on the sides?
Well they are meant to be environmental hazards. So its intended that you can walk by their sides. They are there to punish players that are just running through the dungeon and not paying attention :)
I would preffer the movement to be more precise but wow that game is really pollished and looks phenominal
Thank you for your feedback! Although the movements slippery nature wasnt considered an issiue for a while, hearing the overwhelming negative feedback to it opened our minds to diffrent implementation. We value each piece of feedback we can get!

Nice overall presentation, especially with the sound and lighting. Attacking was a little difficult, but a very solid foundation for a dungeon crawler. Hope you keep fleshing it out!
It's silly how the sprites themselves are not that crazy looking, but with all the visual effects, lighting and soundtrack makes this such an enjoyable and one of the best entries I've played! Good job!
The game clicked once I got the bow... and kept getting better with each weapon pickup. The combat is a little frustrating, but the forgiving health system (on normal) alleviates that. I did not have a chance to dabble in the upgrade system, but I appreciate that it was there. Fun, bite-sized experience!
Awesome game! Loved the different weapons and the art style!
Pretty good game, overall it was well made
Really nice game to play. Feels very polished. Great Job!
Absolutely loved this game
NIce! I think this game is definitely going to be in top 10.
Thanks for your support!
Really fun! The one problem I have is that the movement is a bit slow and weird, but other than that it was great! The idea is so fun and the art is so pretty, I love the weapon attack animations, really a great game!
Nice! I like that you made holding left button possible and that it does that combo attack, and not forcing the player to click spam.
cool game!
