I ended up being stuck in a place I couldn't move in level 4 and gave up after using R to reset. I really wanted to keep going to see more dialog! While the mechanics helped the story, in the end there was a bit of mismatch between the HEAVY masochistic difficulty and FLUFFY kookiness. Might be better for one to give. \n\nReally a great game, though I was in pain by the end. The camera moving at every wiggle started giving me a headache.

The sword controls (at every level) are very good, it feels wobbly and burdensome without feeling unfair, but the movement is just needlessly annoying. This isn't usual for a keyboard-only platformer, but this is a game especially that would have really benefited from analog joystick controls, or a more tile-based x-positioning for the character.\n\nThe problem with it is that there's no sense of accomplishment when you eventually overcome one of the challenges. It's like rolling a 100-sided die until you get a 46. Like, hooray, but I didn't feel like my successful attempts were a result of anything other than doing it over and over again. It also got in the way of really good design choices. For example, early stages are made more difficult with the longer swords (fantastic idea!) but it doesn't really work as-is because the challenge comes from the unpredictability of movement rather than player precision or puzzle-solving.\n\nThere were a few places where I got stuck even though the principles of levers (which the game reminds you to consider almost as a preemptive complaint avoidance scheme, very clever! :-P) would apply. This is utterly forgivable since it's edge cases and this is a jam game, so that's just playtest feedback, not actual criticism.\n\nGreat work for a jam game. I think the high-level of presentation polish invites comparisons to published works, which certainly isn't fair. I think this would be a great game to keep working on for commercial release. I'd love to see it as a puzzler with a bunch of bite-sized sequences like this, with different themes, goals, or items to swing. I wouldn't add much to it, even though you certainly could.\n\nBut, the movement needs to be addressed. The market for \"Getting-Over-It-likes\" is only so large, and this game can't count on meme-aesthetics like that one did. What it has is a greater focus on lateral thinking with it's faux-rogue-like structure. Lean into that and less into the controls being frustrating for their own sake.\n\n(Also, you can totally cheese the second-to last area with both the swords you bring to it).\n\n**EDIT: Your stats show you have no karma or given ratings for other games yet. It's early still so I just want to encourage you to do so even though you probably won't need to considering all the attention this is getting already. I don't like when some LD games get a lot of attention and skate by without participating in the system, so I hope you choose to avoid that fate.**","format":"md","likes":8,"spam":"N"},{"id":642835,"author_name":"Rongo Matane","author_uid":"rongo-matane","epoch":1619524321,"text":"That was really interesting, a great mechanic and presentation. Penetrating the dragon was strangely erotic. I also had to learn that i should be satisfied with an average sized sword, i had a lot of trouble handling the 4 incher (or whatever that measurement is). I got really frustrated with the longer one - reminded me a bit of getting over it, which is not something i enjoy, so it won't be held against your game. In that regard, i think the controls find a good balance of being slightly awkward, so that the challenge arises from the execution (like in the bennet foddy game).\n\nAwesome job! I'm sure i'll see this on randomize user :D\n\nPS: i had a little technical problem where the game slowed down heavily and the sped up, throwing me off cliffs.

The idea of plunging your sword deeper and deeper into the dragon is a very creative (and a bit suggestive) take on the theme. The physics on the sword made for some really clever and tricky obstacles. I love the idea of playing the same levels over and over but with a different sword that changes the way you have to approach the obstacles. I also like how some of the obstacles can be cheesed if you really make use of your sword's physics. I managed to bypass the second to last room both of the times I had to go through it. I beat the game in 16 minutes, which is apparently really fast comparing to some of the other times on this thread, so I guess I was quick on the uptake. Overall, fantastic entry.

I haven't tested so many yet, but I think this is hard to top. This game just has everything, from a simple but engaging story, awesome graphics, music and sound and of course an innovative and genius game mechanic that is implement almost flawlessly. (Not perfect for me because sometimes I have to start the swing a second time to make it up, although I'm pivoting around the exact same spot. I guess the physics engine is doing some fun stuff there). \n\nThe level design is also brilliant with using the same levels over and over again but with the longer sword, which each time is making the previously hard section easier. And it creates additional playtime with reduced design effort. Making the last sword golden is a nice touch to indicate the final level, which by the way was fucking brutal on my first playthrough. Level 1-4 were a breeze, but level 5 tool 13 minutes to finish, resulting in a 21:01. Sub 20 would have been nice, but that's saved for another playthrough. YES, I will come back to this game and give it another try. :crossed_swords: \n\n![DeepestSwordPlaythrough1.png](\/\/\/raw\/ae6\/d1\/z\/40e36.png)\n\nBtw.

I found the graphics, sound, mood and overall aesthetic really charming and the take on the theme is fun as well (both in the sense of going deeper into the cave, but also driving the sword deeper into the dragon). So great work on that!\n\nThe main mechanic was also rather interesting and innovative in its design. However, this is also where I find my main issue. It is always hard to balance wacky physics based antics with controls that feel fun and responsive. And although you have gotten quite close, given the time frame, it's not 100% there yet. I found myself often feeling at the mercy of the game's physics with my character having an unnecessary amount of slipperiness to them, resulting in the feeling of kinda just getting knocked around uncontrollably. The reason why I think this is an issue is because the main mechanic has a lot of potential to be something really fun. Imagine a game about timing your sword swings just right so that you get more and more momentum by using your environment. As it is currently though, it feels more like awkwardly trying to wiggle your way around a cave that is not designed much with the mechanics in mind. Maybe that sort of slow paced experience is your intention, or maybe there was just way too little time to iterate on levels, but either way, to me personally it doesn't feel as fun as it could be. Perhaps with more pixel perfect movement, more momentum gain from the sword and level design made to facilitate that momentum, I would have enjoyed it a lot more.\n\nOverall, though, I think that you have accomplished everything one could dream for with a Ludum Dare entry: polished, complete, technically well-executed and despite having flaws: really showing potential to take this idea and make something truly great out of it.
