Great entry. This is probably the game I've played the longest so far. So kudos for that! The cleverly placed hints were great. You really should make more content for this one.

Wheeeeye?! :D
Interesting little game, and nice execution. Seems a bit easy for me 1400 points and could have got more. Funny game! :)

This game looks, feels, and sounds great. It's really interesting to try and figure out what the weakness of each monster is, both location and type of attack. The only real complaint I have about this game is that it feels a bit unforgiving, and it's easy to die several times upon encountering a new enemy before killing them. After that, not much changes the next time you encounter them. I made it to 900 points! Well done.

Reminds me of a streamlined punch-out. I think this one is pretty cool. The tells were a little tough at first but there seems to be some logic and consistency to it. Good job!

Simple idea but great execution :D I really like the enemy designs ;) I might have to play it some more to get good at it.

very funny and entertaining take on the theme and nice work with the intro! the game feedback was a bit lacking, maybe add several lives or tips at the beginning what the player did wrong

Kinda lacks a difficulty curve, otherwise nice.

The frames should last a bit longer though, it's hard to see what you're even using.

I noticed a minor bug, when you get a game over and restart, your new score is added to the previous scores when showing your final score at the end. Pretty neat little game though, I liked the intro :)

Really well made game, the gameplay gets a tad bit reptitive but the challenge stays, there's not much going but it feels really satisfying to keep playing, you nailed the RPG feel for sure. Good job!

The ui reminds me of Final Fantasy V

was interesting to understand, not only what to use, but where to hit on each monsters
after a while, it was repetitive and non challenging but i liked the main core of the gameplay
nice work
