I couldn't really figure out how my playstyle affected the level up, and ultimately the dragon killed me. I little bit more feedback from the game on this would have been nice.

I played two levels, doing mainly magic the first time and _only_ running away the second. Running away didn't seem to make me better at anything, though.

The catch is that you can only level up once, and the improvements you receive depend on how you fight. The goal is to fight monsters until you level up, then fight the boss at the castle.\r\n\r\nThe theme of course is you only get one level or level-up. You also get one potion so you can heal yourself if things go south, so there's that too, but what I said earlier is the main idea. That's where \"fill-in\" comes from, by the way; \"fill-in\" as in a \"substitute\" hero, someone who can only manage one level.\r\n\r\nGame was made with LibGDX, sounds with Bfxr. The music was made in GarageBand. I used a GameBoy soundfont called \"GBFont\" by MaliceX for it, which you can find at http:\/\/woolyss.com\/chipmusic-soundfonts.php. I didn't see any license information in the package I downloaded, so I'll assume that it's free for use.\r\n\r\nTested on and should work for Windows, OS X and Ubuntu.\r\n\r\nUpdates:\r\n* 1.01 - Fixed the timing of the music since the looping was off by one beat. Also added what keys are used to play in the HowTo section.","title":"Fill-In Fantasy"}
