OK! Thanks for telling me it! It was my fault and Im fixed it a moment ago. Sorry about problems.
Thanks! I think that :microphone2: voices characters are good because the are non any particular language. I'm happy that you like it. :smiley:

Mayby some day. You can follow :handshake: me on my gamejolt. I'm thinking about it too.
It took me a while to figure out what "bring a bull" means (I kept killing bulls and wondered why it didn't work), but eventually managed to figure it out and complete the game. Had a lot of fun!
One thing that bothered me a bit though - in the last part where you have to kill 100 knights, this part is not very challenging. That's fine, and it was fun to feel all-powerful and kill tons of knights easily, but it got old after the first 20-30 knights I killed, and then it took me a long time to kill 70 more. I think it would be nice to make the number of knights you need to kill in this section smaller (or at least make the knights crowd in more specific regions so you could kill many of them at once).
Anyway, really nice game!
any suggestions about the title?
@matank
Thanks for feedback. What you say is really important to me. :smiley:
One thing I didn't like....the attack button. It would be a lot better in my opininon if it was the usual left mouse button. Good job nonetheless!
Thanks for feedback! I didn't think about it but it is really good idea :mouse_three_button: ! Thanks!
Thanks for feedback. I see this isn't really obvious. If the bull see you in vertical or horizontal line it will be rushing into your's direction. Make him follow you into the cultist's base and then go to the Master. I'm really sorry for this.
The Intro was realy nice and the whole story was soo strange and funny. I think it would have been nice to let the text stay there a bit and not immediately scroll it back. Sometimes it was a bit hard to read it that quick. but this scroll back effect was nice it seamt like the people spoke backwards or something xD
I tink it is almost imposible to get a bull through the top and bottom entrense. I think the doors should have been a bit bigger.
Nice Work verry Funny :-D
Very fun concept, fighting is really hard and a bit messy, though. maybe having a greater range could have helped.
I hope you had as much fun making this as I had testing it o/

Thanks for feedback. It means a lot of to me. I understand it is hard. I will nerf knight next time.
@stames
Thanks for feedback. Very nice idea! If I continue, it will implement it.
@legulysse
Thanks for feedback. Oh! I didn't realize it when I was testing it. Thanks!
@jupiter-hadley
Thanks. I saw it. I'm Ur subscriber and I love what you do on your chanell. Although I'm disapointed you gave up on my game that fast. But I will take your opinnion into consideration and balance it more next time.
Hope you develop a post jam version of this game.
Good point! Thanks.
@zicboy
Maybe I'll do it but surprisingly I have less time then during game jam.

It's good to hear a different opinion. Everyone stated that the audio :notes: was good well I'm happy :smile: to see that someone have other feelings about it.
