Awesome game! Really enjoyed it, tho I think some of the upgrades could have a slightly reduced cost at the beginning.
Also, if you want to continue playing to try and get 100% upgrades, hitting the Demon King is actually bad because it essentially voids the reward of that launch, so maybe something to fix.
Thanks for your feedback!
You're right, so I updated the game. Now, after defeating the demon king, you can continue playing endlessly, and he won’t appear again. :)
Very fun game! I can see myself spending a long time upgrading, trying different bounce angles, etc. Sfx are great and art is fun. It's pretty much straightforward and I can see people trying to min max and compete for high scores. Pretty close to feeling complete. Great entry!
Great game! Reminds me of learn to fly and other classic flash games like it. An upgrade to increase your size would be cool. The grind felt a bit too long to finish, but still had a good time. Keep up the good work!
Fun and easy game to play. The best part is when you keep getting powered up by the Phoenix and Eagle
That was fun. I completed the game (hit the main baddie), but then decided to try what happens if I throw the sword straight up. Everything seemed to be fine until the sword fell through the ground, yet the height kept growing.
Thanks a lot for your feedback. Well, your sword must have become really fast. Im not sure if i should fix it or add an Easter Egg where you arrive in China :D
