Nice game. I died a lot. Couldn't ever actually get the package to the lich.

Fun concept!! It was pretty difficult to stay alive xD But I definitely felt like a man on a mission with a box, especially like the mechanic where I have to put it down to fight and go pick it up again later.

Hard to avoid some of the traps/enemy projectiles but I liked having quite a few different tools to use.

really hard. not clear where the lich is? enemy bullets are too fast imo.

Very difficult! I couldn't quite get Fear to work for me and couldn't find any corpses to life drain. Interesting concept though. I also wondered why the skeletons were attacking me since they're undead and we're working for the Lich...

Tough game! I was never able to find the lich before dying, and I couldn't quite figure out how to use the Scare and Life Drain abilities effectively. It'd be cool if it had a minimap or something to help navigate/see where you've been. Nice work!

Wasn't able to get scare to work, any time I tried I'd immediately get killed.

Could use an indicator to let you know which direction the lich is in.

Hey everyone, thank you for the feedback! Yeah the game is definitely overtuned and half the abilities are broken. In the spirit of the jam we decided to hard stop at the cutoff, but we're pretty proud of how much we got done in 72 hours.

A harsh game. I've died a lot. But it's cool that there is generation

This was cool. I would have liked an arrow pointing which way to go. I still would have explored all possibilities but i just like knowing where the objective is!

Nice game! I've been able to easily get accustomed to the abilities and to deliver the package to the lich king after about 5 deaths. Also you made me realize how badly I've been missing rogue-like games in my life for the last 10 years or so. I'll definitely come back later and try to finish the game! And by the way it works for me on Firefox (112.0.2 (64-bit)).

Here for the rescue! :D I like the cute hat on the ghost. The graphics are fine and a music is a nice start. :D I liked the sfx as well. Fun idea, decent overall. Good job!

The controls, especially the camera, are indeed not very user-friendly. I would like to see what is ahead, in the direction I'm moving. Additionally, I didn't quite understand how to engage in combat with enemies, other than simply running away from them 😰
