Simple, effective, and fun! This one gets right into the action and is intuitive and easy to play. I really like that getting hit isn't an immediate game-over, and grabbing holy water has a really nice sense of risk/reward to it. The sound effects suit the aesthetic perfectly and this is just nicely designed in every way. Great job!

Fun game, I feel like I'm echoing what's already been said, but having damage only shrink the screen definitely encouraged me to play riskier and made the game really engaging. My best score was 1277.

Kinda stressful in a good way, I ended up playing a few rounds. The theme is spot on.
My best score is 1383.

This is really well done - there's attention to detail here that makes it stand out. I liked that I had to move around to confirm I understood the controls before it started, and there's a nice sense of increasing danger

This pixel game is amazing! It immerses me in a world where I have to dodge enemies and collect treasures. I love its simple yet addictive gameplay mechanics that keep me trying to challenge my skills. The pixel art style of the game gives it a nostalgic and cute feel, reminiscent of classic games from my childhood. The process of evading enemies and chasing after treasures is filled with thrilling excitement and enjoyment. Each successful dodge and collection brings a sense of accomplishment.

Those sound effects, visuals and gameplay really go well with each other. I love the arcady feel that the game gives you. A bit too simple to my taste, yet still encouraging to play!

A battle royal liked)).
So, It's a good idea but not disclosed enough. It would be great to add additional objectives to the gameplay, such as a spawn coins and power-ups to expand the space a bit. This would add a bit of challenge to the gameplay.

Great use of the theme to make something fun to play. Plus everything tied together: the arcade style, graphics, the pun in the title, retro sfx. I really like the walking animation too.

Ooo really addicting gameplay! I really loved the the balance of how much damage shrunk the borders vs how much holy water pushed them back. Great job!

офигенная игра, интересный геймплей и лаконичный дизайн. возможно, было бы лучше если бы хилки появлялись и оставались статичными, так игра меньше бы полагалась на рандом и у игрока было бы больше чувства контроля над происходящим. но даже без этой мелочи, это одна из самых любимых игр которые я увидела на этом джеме!
