Not really sure how you win, but combat was interesting.

The controls are well thought. I love the homemade audio, made it much more fun to play. Good job, very good job my friend."},{"author_name":"IAmSpencer","author_uid":"24919","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 4:09am","epoch":1450065840,"text":"That was a really creative way to implement the 2 button controls! I'm surprised you manage to make them work as well as you did, nicely done!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Gave me a slight nostalgia feeling for old adventure  games, which is always good haha\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Liked the graphics as well, over all, great work! :)"},{"author_name":"zenchaplays","author_uid":"65657","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 5:53am","epoch":1450072080,"text":"Finished one battle on OS X and was unable to enter any other area. Cool vibe and I like the simple party-based combat. I would've rather seen more polished combat than a &quot;world map.&quot;"},{"author_name":"Baknik","author_uid":"22088","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 6:03am","epoch":1450072680,"text":"Simple gameplay, but effective.

Who would have thought a party of four could be controlled by two buttons? This is one of my favorites so far."},{"author_name":"gene-z","author_uid":"26095","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 10:28pm","epoch":1450131780,"text":"very nice game, good gameplay"},{"author_name":"Garris","author_uid":"33993","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 12:24am","epoch":1450138740,"text":"Great game!

Maybe it's the battle music. The graphics were ok, and the music was nice. Only thing I'd say is it'd  be nice to have a sound effect when buying something -- unless I was watching my money I wasn't sure if I bought something or not. Otherwise, pretty fun! Unfortunately I died right at the end! Good work on this."},{"author_name":"Jupiter_Hadley","author_uid":"27744","time":"Dec 18, 2015 @ 8:40pm","epoch":1450470900,"text":"Nice game!

The graphics are good (especially the enemies' death animations), there is some good music, and the combat is simple but tense and fulfilling. I'm impressed that this was done in 48 hours.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>A possible bug: if I bought the key and then went back into a town to stock up on health, the gate no longer showed up.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Still haven't beaten the boss (the big mage with the fireball). I might come back and try again later."},{"author_name":"sP0CkEr2","author_uid":"7135","time":"Dec 23, 2015 @ 1:48am","epoch":1450834980,"text":"such a great idea - i think you could take this further."},{"author_name":"crucknuk","author_uid":"53686","time":"Dec 29, 2015 @ 5:35pm","epoch":1451410200,"text":"Nice compo!
