Rejse by Garett

Play as the fearless captain of a crew of Vikings on a journey to save your village. As with any good story you run into a few problems along the way, whether it be monsters or mother nature herself. Unfortunately nobody travels the sea without offerings to the gods, whether it be the gold you collect along the way... Or your own crew members. Run out of crew and the journey is over. Can you bring everyone back to the village safely?
My first LD Entry! barely got it finished in time, and unfortunately had to cut some things that were planned..but it was a blast to work on anyways, and I'm happy with what we got. Let me know of any bugs you find, I'd like to polish this up later on.

The combat mechanics are... rough. If you happen to get too close to the purple enemies, they'll continually jump at you, without you really being able to do anything besides hitting them quickly before you lose too many coins.
You got something nice here, just gotta polish it up, tweak a few things and fix some bugs.
That is a very good point about being able to see the coin requirement for the level! I was really rushing to finish up the UI, so it didn't get the attention it deserves. That will go into a future version!
The only problem I had with this game is that I almost ragequit because I could not find how to start the game. In addition the overworld transitions from/to black were too long.
