How to play:

- Release to drop the character. They can only be moved horizontally.
- Trigger the attacks of the characters by moving or swapping them.
- After moving a character, a turn passes.

- Survive and get the maximum possible score by making combos (killing multiple enemies at the same time)
- If 2 characters are killed or your castle runs out of HP, you lose.

Tough, but the balance is interesting. It reminds me of some games from UFO-50. It has a unique but clever game-design! I managed to get 3750.
We are really glad you liked it. Nice score btw!
Stay tuned for our new game next month!
this is cool but tough! i only got 1400 but i feel like i could definitely do better
Glad you liked it! We wanted to go for this retro-arcade feel, where games were just out to get you. Do you think it’d be cooler if it was a bit easier?
Thank you for playing!
i think having a little bit more leeway at the beginning to get the hang of it would be nicer for me personally, but i also think a lot of people would appreciate the challenge as it is (:
Thank you very much for your feedback, it’s really useful for us!
Stay tuned for our new game next month!
I did not even played the game
- but listen to the soundtrack for 2 minutes. Really nice! <3
