Always great to see another retro game lover :) Glad you enjoyed the game!

Thanks for playing our game. Hope to hear from you in future titles!

I like how you went hardcore on the difficulty. I like it.

Avizial responds:

Glad you like it! We tried to go for that retro arcade level of difficulty. Good to see we didn't disappoint :)

In our latest update, we added trophies. To reward the most skilled of players. Only one person has beaten our game. Think you can beat our game?

Thanks for playing our game! Hope to hear from you in future titles.

Definitely had the feel of old-school NES/Atari games. It's certainly addicting and there's medals galore that keeps you coming back.

Demo has to be completely redone. If you turn it off, eventually you get far enough, but then you don't know what to do because you turned it off because you've already sat through it too many times. For example I kept losing at level 5, turned the demo off, but then I got to the sea king and died because I didn't know what I was supposed to do. The demo could be replaced by arrows that simply say "hit here" and play lose sound effects when you hit the wrong thing. No need to sit through a tutorial for a point and click.

Avizial responds:

This is some great feedback. Let us take a look at the tutorial and see if we can do a few tweaks.

We have gotten some feedback with players saying they had no idea how to play it; however, we understand that the more skilled players might find the tutorial boring or unnecessary. We think a fair middle ground is met with a skip-able tutorial and disabling tutorial outright from the main menu.

We shall look into some possible tweaks :)

Glad to see a player has finally gotten to the sea king god, Aegir! Perhaps we should make his weak-point a little more obvious. Maybe make it sparkle, shine or glow? We will test to see what looks best.

Hint: If you want to defeat the sea king boss, you have to shoot the gem on his crown with a mighty blow!

Thanks for playing the game! We hope to hear from you in our future games.

i really like this game its so retro my only issue is it would be nice to have a few more lives at the beginning it feels like you pretty much have to be perfect the whole game
