There was one point a guy stopped attacking me and I thought I'd made a friend then i turned round and he stabbed me in the back!"},{"author_name":"Toki Anholmes","author_uid":"18147","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 11:09am","epoch":1387191840,"text":"Hey nice entry :) maybe try to make your game more nervous, by making a fastest hit animation for exemple.\rAnyway, great job !"},{"author_name":"milugames","author_uid":"30517","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 11:16am","epoch":1387192260,"text":"Graphics are awesome and because of that overall it feels very polished and good.\r\rGameplay itself is a bit confusing though. (mainly because the attack animation is a bit confusing) Hard to understand when you're actually doing damage and when you should step away.\r\rLike BrainDeadGeo said it would be cooler if you looked toward the mouse.\r\rOverall still pretty good work. Especially on the polish!"},{"author_name":"dsoft20","author_uid":"8795","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 2:13pm","epoch":1387202880,"text":"Nice game i love the graphics!"},{"author_name":"Hyoga-3D","author_uid":"23927","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 5:21pm","epoch":1387214160,"text":"The animations atack could be more faster.\r\rOne thing that you could add to the game is to select your char, even with all of them moving the same it would be very nice."},{"author_name":"lordjosephdeburg","author_uid":"13718","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 9:20pm","epoch":1387228500,"text":"'Death by pricking' lol. Hit and run tactics seem to work best. Overall a good entry stephan in terms of mechanics and well made but obviously more direction and a climatic boss fight at the end would have jumped this up quite a big in the ranks I think. Good to see you entering once again!"},{"author_name":"MRvanderPants","author_uid":"20836","time":"Dec 19, 2013 @ 9:00am","epoch":1387443300,"text":"I really liked the graphics of this game. The attacks felt a little weird thou. Try adding a single white frame on hit. That will give some better feedback to the player."},{"author_name":"Miltage","author_uid":"8745","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 1:35pm","epoch":1387546200,"text":"I got to a point where it said 'Fight' but no enemies arrived, I guess I can attribute that to the game not being finished? \r\rThe AI is pretty bad, you can win all the fights by charging the enemy so that they end up facing the wrong way and you just stab them from behind. I like the character designs and the art in general, but there is a clear inconsistency between the characters and the environmental assets (plants, rocks, trees). \r\rThe parallax scrolling was a cool idea, but the back layers make little sense. Why are they so jagged? Are they distant mountain ranges? If they are, why are there huge, bare trees on them? You need some intermediary levels, like smooth hills, between them. It currently looks like pathway, then suddenly distant mountains.\r\rI liked the UI, clean and functional. The logo is also top-notch."},{"author_name":"van noctar","author_uid":"21196","time":"Dec 27, 2013 @ 8:33pm","epoch":1388176080,"text":"Good sounds, nice gameplay!"},{"author_name":"Bernhard","author_uid":"20775","time":"Jan 2, 2014 @ 5:26am","epoch":1388640060,"text":"Killing enemies that are facing the wrong way is the best :D"}],"images":["ld28\/3707-5ba577cc526b2764a1bbf49564ba9fe3.jpg","ld28\/3707-2df022f973b19e7ec81eb58d3251bfd4.jpg","ld28\/3707-6bb805d941b18bfcb78ce16ad351b667.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.craftinglegends.com\/games\/prototypes\/ludumdare28\/swordketeer.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.craftinglegends.com\/games\/prototypes\/ludumdare28\/swordketeer.app.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.craftinglegends.com\/games\/prototypes\/ludumdare28\/swordketeer_linux.zip","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.craftinglegends.com\/games\/prototypes\/ludumdare28\/web\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/talecrafter\/chosenone","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"22535","g_author":"3707","g_event":"LD28","g_eventkey":"20","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"22565","g_title":"The Last Swordketeer","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"811","g_commentcount":"11","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/3707-shot0.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/3707-shot1.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/3707-shot2.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"You get only one answer from swordketeer Mareene: Death by pricking!
