Really cool game - as the other commenters already said: the complete reset is quite annoying.  I'd like to play an expanded version of this where you can do more stuff in the battles or perhaps play different kinds of mini games - very well done even though it was probably waaay over 3 hours :)

Ey we took into account your feedback and we reworked the game with these update:

Progress is not lost when defeated jousting.
Progression speeded up.
Stats and Items explained in-game.
Exp and gold obtained shown in menu and Victory/Defeat panel.
Royal Knight is the strongest.
Fixed horse running sound clitch.

We are happy to hear any feedback on the current version, thanks!

Very elaborate and fun for a game jam game, but some more polish would be needed. The sound mixing is a bit off for example, but other than that, I enjoyed it! 

Thanks a lot, the music is not looping flawlessly in the WebGL version, while it is fine in the unity editor, no idea why.. Is this what you meant for the mixing ? Otherwise don't hesitate to give more information, that would help me a lot, I definitely have a lot to learn in term of mixing !

I found the horse step sounds to be way too loud. :)

Developer

ey if you have more info about the sound mixing problem I would gladly look into it. It is a very interesting thing to look at and only issue I knew is that the horse running sound is not a perfect loop but couldn't find anything better, other than that couldn't reproduce any issue.

The game itself was fun to play, and the art style and sound work very well together.

On the other hand:

  1. I didn't like that the progress restarted every time you died. It's hard to carry on knowing that a single mistake could wipe out all your progress
  2. It wasn't obvious how Precision and Luck worked
  3. You could replace Spear Level with Damage and Armor Level with Armor so we know how much damage we can give and take
  4. The menus could do with some tidying up and aligning
  5. County Joust looks harder than Royal Joust (from the stats). The actual difficulty between the Knights was hard to judge

Other than that, I liked it :D

It's a lot better now and way more enjoyable :)

Still some issues I noticed:

  1. Enemy knight sometimes starts off facing right when the joust starts
  2. I can still buy items in Stats and Shop after they have reached their max
  3. Consider adding varying horse speeds for the different knights; maybe make the pace of later jousts faster

Keep up the good work!

Hi!
It's a pretty nice game. I had fun playing it...until I died and everything got reset T-T. Now I gotta go grind again....I defeated the first 3 in one round, but the final boss one-shotted me :P

Developer

Thanks for playing it, now it is nicer to defeat the royal knigh:
