The gameplay would be repetitive if the game was much longer, so I found the length to be perfect. Even so, a few extra mechanics would be interesting: for example, have the enemies come from both sides of the screen and use two different buttons to attack on either side.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Matt Pattabhi","author_uid":"1011151","time":"2019-04-29T05:40:33Z","epoch":1556516433,"modified":1556516433,"text":"@zanyg \nI agree. With such a short window I couldn't get fancy with the combat mechanics. My main idea was something you could play with just the mouse. \n\nWhat I was implementing before the time ran out was an attack hold combo where you attack and hold to unleash a charge attack jumping forward. However, I managed to just add a combo feature to keep the game engaging  until its it's over. \n\nOverall I enjoyed the theme challenge this dare and the final product is playable with a story behind it.\n\n","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"notb","author_uid":"1088525","time":"2019-04-29T06:04:41Z","epoch":1556517881,"modified":1556517881,"text":"Nice I like the cute disguise keep it up","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ROBOWARRIOR1982","author_uid":"1082891","time":"2019-04-29T07:48:15Z","epoch":1556524095,"modified":1556524095,"text":"Graphics and idea are simple and fun, a little bit repetitive.

Feels fairly polished. I thought the character design was cute especially the disguise. I agree with what others have said, additional game-play mechanics would make it more fun\/interesting over a longer playing time. I also wasn't sure what the combo thing was at first as I kept spamming the attack button, maybe a \"Miss!\" notification would help with that. Overall nice job for a game made in under 48 hours!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"sillyman987","author_uid":"1123977","time":"2019-04-29T16:39:22Z","epoch":1556555962,"modified":1556555962,"text":"Nice disguise","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Simone","author_uid":"1033138","time":"2019-04-29T16:50:36Z","epoch":1556556636,"modified":1556556636,"text":"Nice game, just one very technical suggestion: rename the executable.
