What a beautiful game i like how the mc gets stronger the more we go brings a whole lot of challenge to it, the dialogue options are cute too even showing a sense of humanity for the queen, the way the queen becomes more gentle with the hero the more we go. I hope more endings will be available in the future but overall i really loved the concept of this game.
I am now demanding that someone make a 30 chapter enemies to lovers fic about the queen and the hero cause that shit be tragic. also good game would wipe my mind and play again for the first time ever even if it gave me uber cancer.
Jogo muito divertido e imersivo, com um ponto de vista muito diferente do habitual. Ótima historia e personagens muito bem desenvolvidos. Apesar de curto, um jogo 10/10
This was frustrating more than anything. Is not that the hero is "getting better" he's straight breaking the game, I can get the predictions, but animation cancel and phantom hitbox, cmon. I was hoping to actually get defeated by a good hero. Maybe I'm just a bad boss
Why dies this pull my heart strings so bad!? I love the idea and concept of this game, i played it 3 times and i made a 3 minute video review about it. I hope it brings more people to play this game!
That's a fun little game. With loop player basically gets a smaller and smaller, until basically non-existing hitbox, making fighting him normally impossible. the way to surrender him though really works. As already commented below, you have to stay by the wall (you basically almost don't have to move away from the throne at all), spam 3 and as he comes closer to you, avoiding the spell circle behind him, press 1 to make him go back into it. Funny enough, you don't even attack him yet, he just feels that 1 was pressed and reacts, lmao. Like how there are little variations to the dialogue depending on what would you choose. And I wonder how weak was the army if he only learnt how to slash with the sword by the first arrival to the Queen.
Acabei de jogar e na moral, que experiência... Amei cada segundo, admito que fez rolar uma lagrima conforme as coisas aconteciam. Meus parabéns ao criador
1️⃣ A arte do jogo é simplesmente incrível. Mesmo com um único cenário, tudo foi muito bem trabalhado, desde o ambiente até o design dos personagens. Dá para ver o capricho na estética!
2️⃣ Existem algumas hitboxes um pouco bugadas, mas nada que realmente comprometa a jogabilidade. Ainda assim, seria interessante um ajuste fino nesse aspecto.
3️⃣ Apesar do jogo se passar em um único cenário, ele não se torna repetitivo. A narrativa prende muito bem o jogador, e isso foi um grande acerto. Mantém a experiência envolvente e imersiva!
4️⃣ Se houver planos para um novo projeto no futuro, uma ideia legal seria um jogo onde o jogador assume o papel de todos os chefes. Ou seja, na primeira fase você começa como um boss mais fraco, já que é o primeiro desafio do protagonista. Conforme o jogo avança, você melhora e evolui, tornando-se cada vez mais poderoso. Assim, quando chegar na quarta ou quinta fase, o jogador já teria desenvolvido bastante o boss para encarar um herói cada vez mais forte. Acho que essa dinâmica resultaria em um jogo bem diferente e divertido!
No geral, curti demais a jogatina! Foi uma experiência única e muito bem feita. 👏🔥
Parabéns para o cara que fez esse jogo! Não joguei mais que 2 jogos no itch.io, mas esse foi de longe o melhor e um dos melhores, senão o melhor jogo curto que já joguei. Acredito que a beleza do jogo seja os diálogos e sobre se colocar no lugar do boss final e do Heroi, e entender que no jogo, cada um está cumprindo seu papel. Gostei de verdade!
1) I really enjoyed the game. It's a fun and creative experience that kept me engaged from start to finish. The mechanics are intuitive, and the atmosphere is immersive. What stood out the most was the unique art style and how it adds depth to the narrative.
2) Throughout the game, I started to notice that the hero's hitbox seemed to simply disappear at times. My attacks wouldn't register as hits, even though I was clearly striking the hero. This caused some frustrating moments.
3) If the game gets any updates, I would suggest adding the ability to chain attacks together. This would give me more options in combat and allow for more strategy, especially against the hero. It could also make the AI smarter in adapting to my moveset. I understand that, as a final boss, I won’t have upgrades like better weapons or spells, aside from possibly a second phase. So, I believe being able to chain attacks would be a solid addition. Alternatively, fixing the hero's hitbox would also be a great improvement.
4) I read that there are at least three possible endings: one where the hero wins, another where I just stand still and do nothing, and a third where the hero surrenders. However, I haven't been able to get the ending where the hero surrenders. Since my last comment I've played the game four more times, choosing different dialogue options and even defeating the hero using only my mace, yet I always end up with the same ending where the hero wins. I'd almost say the ending doesn’t exist, but I’ve seen people on Youtube and forums who claim to have unlocked it.
There's a cheese tactic for getting the give up ending. You need to trick the player's AI, whenever you use the spell circle he'll move forward to get out, if you use the mace then he'll move back to avoid it.
Basically hug a wall, spam 3, when he's close due to the spell circle press 1, and then he'll walk back into the spell and die.
Very sad game, but also sweet. Although on my first playthough the game glitched, making both the queen and the hero unkillable. Which lead to the "you're not trying anymore" dialogue. So the hero kept fighting me and I kind of just gave up. And then they stopped and the hero and the queen just stared at each other for all eternity. I consider this to be the good ending.
By the scale of this game, this kind of story was more touching than a lot of other story games that are much longer. Having a smaller story that has a big meaning and love in it is much more valuable. Hope your future games are as touching as this.
This game is a masterpiece! Simply gorgeous, both the narrative, art style, sound design, all perfect! My only issue (and you probably read this all the time) is the fact that no matter what you do or say, the end is always the same. I get that this is the intention, to show that the boss was made to be like that and that a player will always beat it in the end, however I feel that, in a narrative perspective, this makes all the dialogue choices we make along the way quite irrelevant. It does not matter if we, as the boss, start to see the player's perspective or not, in the end, it feels like there never was a choice to begin with (which conflicts with all the amazing dialogues the game has).
Of course this is all just my own opinion based only in my own experience, apart from everything I just said, the place of this game should be in a museum, because it's truly an piece of art!!
juego de mierda. los ataques son pobres y de gente hedionda. los graficos son peores que los del pes 2006. la idea es aburrida y repetitiva. el tipo que me enfrenta me hace bullyng, ademas de que le pegan en casa. es negro y tiene los ojos celestes (imposible). no tiene menu para cambiar los graficos y es muy pobre, ademas de que las letras son las tipicas, en fin. ojala lo borren jeje
se te olvida que hay juegos estilo pixel? mas ensima que el heroe no nos hace bullying para nada,si lo vez de esa forma ps estas mal,q tiene q sea un maldito negro con ojos blancos si has visto a herobrine y no t veo llorando,las letras y los finales son creativos y los ataques estan hechos para ser limitados ya que son parte de las conversaciones y endings
A very beautiful artstyle and amazing lore. I loved every moment of it! I hope it gets expanded into a full series someday. If I had any money, I would certainly donate!
I'm in love with this game, I feel like it's made to humble the proud because "losing" is inevitable, that's why it's helping me fight against my own sins. Can you please tell us which character is the queen inspired by?

Gorgeous art and unique and interesting story! What more can you ask for?

Que buen juego sin duda, una experiencia unica ! a demas el transfondo de los dialogos me dejo pensando mucho, les dejo mi experiencia en español

I got the third ending with this.

cara que intenso
Controller support please
The game bugged out and the hero kept running at me, dying from touching me somehow, and dialogue was 'opps my bad' repeated forever
Same, any fix?
Crackling sound on a mac (m3 mbp, 14.5 sonoma)
el mejor juego que jugue en un largo tiempo, ojala lo actualices
holy god i wanna see this thing get uptaded so badly
maybe next time you can become the colossal ravenant
or make an alt ending where she leaves with the hero, just immagine this lil guy living with his 15 feet gf (i would like that personally)
By the scale of this game, this kind of story was more touching than a lot of other story games that are much longer. Having a smaller story that has a big meaning and love in it is much more valuable. Hope your future games are as touching as this.
A great idea and game, very touching. Absolutely loved it! <3
a very cute game and an interesting concept, I see a lot of potential here <3

there is actually 2 other ending 1 you do litteraly nothing, the other i dunno but i know it exist
remember to stay against the wall and spam 3 that is what I have been told. :3
Это просто великолепно! Теперь я знаю, как чувствуют себя боссы, когда я прихожу к ним на 30+ попытке.
Спасибо за прекрасный игровой опыт.

this is very melancholic ? made me sad, i long for more. i wanna see those two again interact with each other. :'(
can you make the android version? appreciate it tho
A very beautiful artstyle and amazing lore. I loved every moment of it! I hope it gets expanded into a full series someday. If I had any money, I would certainly donate!
i got to beat that guy mainly with the 1st attack before he got the legendary sword.
Is there a web version?
me gusto mucho
I'm in love with this game, I feel like it's made to humble the proud because "losing" is inevitable, that's why it's helping me fight against my own sins. Can you please tell us which character is the queen inspired by?
the game and the concept is very good. But can u please make a wholesome ending I wanna see them work together 🥺
