It'd be nice if you had to pick up the knife before you went down into the cave.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Fighting seemed annoyingly difficult... it would have been much better if you could hit multiple stacked enemies with 1 swing, and if there was some sort of knockback when you hit the enemies.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Enemies that were at the doorway of a level that you left stay there when you try to go back... and kill you immediately.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The music and sounds were top-notch for a 48-hour game.  Very well done!"},{"author_name":"Meep","author_uid":"2629","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 6:43pm","epoch":1367260680,"text":"A fun little adventure. :) I liked the overall feel of the game; I felt it wasn't very clear what to do at the start, though.

Only after reading the comments did I try again and find the key and knife. But then I killed a few monsters, found another key and that's it...
