I didn't quite figure out the game's goal, after amasing a good sum of money from beating up monsters (and dying a couple of times alon the way, those slimes are tough), I came back to the village expecting to spend that money on something, but didn't really found that option. Maybe I missed something?
Anyway, overall a nice entry!
I only wish there was more of it. I think it's pretty clear how this type of game can be expanded upon, it might be worth considering after the compo fatigue wears off.
I really like the design and the mood, i want to see more of this character :D
Me 2 cons :
- The overworld music is a bit repetitive
- The text font can be hard to read for the characters in lowercase
Great work !
One of my favourites this jam!
