i really cant tell which ending is the secret one :) This update is amazing! Secret dungeon item looks cool
is the game free? because the web says its free but when i click in ''No thanks, just take me to the downloads'', it says there is nothing for download yet, ¿is it bugged or i need to buy the game?
Its free to play in browser, to download the executable is for just 5 usd :)
I found a bug where I killed the machine of pain it was still there and I got locked in the arena and when I died the game just broke and had to start a new game
It is consistent
same thing happened with the dude in the pit
Great game. I found a bug when I killed the Ill Maggoth boss it just stayed and didn't disappear and I couldn't leave the arena. When I reloaded it did work though.
i was going through the fan art and i saw a fanart picture and it has the character with one side having the domnic shield and the other side having a holy shield how do i get that
It is for the secret ending! You have to find the 3 secret keys and then go and activate the Providence's statue!
so that light boss the boss on where u finish u have to sacrifice yourself for ur girl that boss
do you do that after all the bosses are defeated? if yes then let me find out
where are all the orbs i found 2
There are just 5 c: but you have to explore!
where can i find the sycthe
In the blood dungeon ;)
mrdoth i got i bug for you
i was going through the fan art and i saw a fanart picture and it has the character with one side having the domnic shield and the other side having a holy shield how do i get that
In the earlier versions the avatar would gain a demon-like form after killing the dragon queen. Will we ever see that as a possible skin in the future.
Hi, just so you know, "Bullet Cleanse" doesn't seem to work anymore.
alguien sabe para que sirven las llaves
How can i buy it
love ur work really hope there is more coming soon can't wait
After replaying this game I must say this game is utterly so frickin awesome! I absolutely can't wait to see whatever games you make next or if there will be a continuation of this game. The game itself is just beautiful with it's overall color choices, the lack of any other colors really sets the tone for the game as a cold and brutal place. The bosses have fun unique gimmicks that set them apart from one another while still trying to keep you on your toes, even no matter how much I've died I was still able to enjoy his game so much. The boss fights themself are like learning curves on their own, learning how to deal with what attacks and how to approach damaging them as much as possible without dying. Really fun game to play to pass time and I would definitely recommend if you want a challenging game to play.
i love the game but IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE is just the second boss and im dying 100 times per hour
Just keep movin' develop a general strategy of what to do and you'll be able to get better at the game. The game is meant to be extremely difficult but that's where it's fun! The fun comes in the challenge, and if you're struggling try doing new things. Before the update that added the various other weapons I always used all my energy on the gun then wait for an opening to use the hammer. The hammer is obtained by going to the bottom left of the main area.
I beat the game by accidentally doing the secret ending, I created a technique that is simply throwing the scythe and spinning around the boss
In all honesty with the number of weird things I come across when it comes to cheesing this game why didn't I think of this.
Dark Souls Vibe eh
where can I find three keys and get the secret end ?
how to find the secret end ?
where is the discord i can't find it
https://discord.gg/7peuMzPdts :D
thx love the new update btw
can someone post a cheat code cause i can't find them in the discord
The codes are not "cheats" are unlockables for some feautures hidden in the game, by now there are just 3 codes: "classic" (unlocks the old player skin), "main" (unlocks the normal skin), "doakeywinner" (unlocks the art contest winner skin)
thank you
muy buen juego, buen arte y buena jugabilidad, buenos jefes y bastante desafiantes, si lo publicas en steam puede llegar a mas publico
Gracias amigo!!!!!!! Ya está en camino para llegar a steam!!
Hey
Downloaded the game and attempted to extract the .rar file. Wouldnt work. Neither would 7zip.
yk how to fix this by any chance?
Hi! The program shows you any error message?
How do you find skin codes?
Up in the comments! :D
Thanks!! <3
Real cool game
i was here when it was first added on armorgames
thanks mate!
gran juego, rompi el click de mi mouse pero no importa, fue muy divertido y frustante pasar por toda la aventura
JAJAJAJA brutal, ¡me alegra mucho que te haya gustado!
HI, everyone, i hace a problem with de purchase with paypal, when i go to pay for the game paypal sende a message to error,there is another way to pay other than paypal?
sorry for the inconvenience, it should be resolved by now!
i've got the secret end accidentaly and only 2 weeks after i've seen the normal end
well, im speachless, this game is just AMAZING, and it isn't even full
Thank you man!!! I have to say that I'm working to improve a lot the game endings, that includes two different bosses
I do not understand what happens once you collect all of the keys.
That is the first step to unlock the alternate ending
!!This Game Is AMAZING!! I played it last year when there were only 9 bosses, I decided to play it again and I was astounded by the progress and the changes.
Thanks mate!!!!! There is a lot more content on the way <3
!!NICE!!
Very Fun. It's so challenging, like how during a boss, you're supposed to focus on attacking, but you have to dodge EVERYTHING!
publish it on steam
just beat the game. very satisfied with it. 10/10
I haven't beaten the game, so no spoilers, but I am really curios as for what the tombs (books) are used for. I would also really like to know what the health symbol under my stamina is, and if it is healing, could someone tell me which key it is?
crow man stole my keys. someone please explain what to do!
He doesn't steal your keys haha, the keys are for a secret ending
ha! thought I was missing something! thank you for explaining!
Books are used to unlock lore in the NPC inside the blacksmith's lair. Holding "1" number key you can use the healing spell
Cool but hard game, i'll probably make a video on it to promote it for you.
Juego genial pero dificil, probablemente haga un video sobre el para promcionarlo! Perdon por el mal espanol, hace mucho que no lo hablo.
OMG!! Thanks!! I WANT TO SEE THAT!
how do you find the skin codes
Discord server <3 :3
ok
Show post...
very Good
El juego no me carga, es porque el juego se compra?
Hola! Puedes probar otro navegador? Jugarlo en navegador sigue siendo gratis
el juego en el navegador si funciona... mi computadora no 😭😭😭😭
Sin duda es el mejor juego de itch que he probado, ojala creen mas jefes y un modo historia. 10/10
Muchas gracias!!!!! Me alegra que te haya gustado, la actualización saldrá en unos dias <3
Muy Buen juego. Muy buenos jefes (el ultimo esta BIEN dificil si es la primera vez)
Lo unico que te diria es:
1. hazlo para pc/mobile
2. mejora un poco el rendimiento ya que algunas veces se puede lagear (en mi caso en varios jefes)
3. Ponle más lenguajes
(opcional). Haz un jefe/Referencia a otros juegos indie como undertale, cuphead, etc
Y ya MUY MUY MUUY BUEN JUEGO. Te dara ganas de matarte pero cuando lo logras te da una euforia por lograr vencerlo :D
Un saludo Desde Co (colombia) para MrDoth
sigue así bro
2 Días Con 60 Horas, Buen juego. Pienso repetirlo cuantas veces me plazca.
En esta actualizacion he mejorado mucho el rendimiendo, el porteo para android ya esta en camino!!!! y los lenguajes, mas adelante :3 muchas gracias compa!!
