A Knight's Face 

Our Hero couldn't afford a lance

So naturally, he's using his face


CONTROLS

  • Space to move
  • Aiming is by your speed, going fast aims up, slowing down aims down.
  • Space to duck in slowmo

Tilts means running past your enemy, tilting your lance at each other. The aim of the game is to beat it in as few tilts as possible.


Art asserts are all drawn by me, except for the UI buttons and panels I used

cool game <3, pretty much polished

Your idea is hilarious. It feels kinda like QWOP in a way? I like the art. I think you might have an infinite loop after killing the chicken. 

I'm getting Target object freed before starting, aborting Tweener in the console.

ah crumbs I changed it to a release build last night for the first time, it seemed debug builds were happy to ignore that error! Thanks for pointing it out, will fix asap! 

And yeah Foddy who made QWOP had another game where you just ran and jumped over hurdles which was definitely a big inspiration for this.

Edit: It should be fixed now :)

Woot it's fixed! Love this game. "Simple" but super effective and addictive trying to get the right timings down. Lovely job

Thanks very much for your kind words! Really appreciate it!

Day 3 build:

It's fun. Looking forward to the final build.

It's not clear what determines how much damage the player takes so a little frustrating at times. After level 5 upgrade, the player health bar stopped refilling and the game stopped giving gold no matter how many enemies were defeated.

Bonus gold for headshots could be a nice addition.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I really appreciate it. Let me know if/when you're posting an entry and I'll check it out!

At the moment the dodging mechanic isn't implemented so yeah the damage doesn't really make sense yet. Great to hear about that bug thanks!
