Very well made game, fun to play with friends.

Tons of potential. Had a blast with my friend working our way into better stats. Elixirs are incredibly OP and should be tuned down I think, especially 'Fortune'. The combat can be a bit unresponsive at times, and making things feel more "fluid" when moving around would be a huge boon. I love the difficulty and having to master the dodging and parrying. More bosses and stages would ofc be excellent. Pretty bad lag spikes fairly often when engaging in bigger fights. Great work, dev

Very fun! Will play again

What can I say. Ape Tavern does not disapoint, pretty good game overall! I did only try out the archer but besides the somewhat iffy arrow aim it was great.

I KNEW THERE WAS A MIMIC!!! Yeah, I didn’t die to it, I’m not falling for that after Terraria. Quick nomination. I think this game deserves to make it to the finals, but I might be biased, Ape Tavern and Small Fish are experienced people and they know how to make great games. I honestly don’t even know what to say, it’s good. A small, compact game with an insanely good guideline in the "show, don’t tell" style. Its only downside is that it’ll probably get boring pretty quickly, since at its core you’re basically just clicking. Yeah, I saw the skill tree, but I don’t know if you can cast spells there or unlock some other new element for the core loop. Great job, guys, really well done!

The game is very well made. From the game playstyle to characters to the skill tree. I see great future for this game!

Not a bad game. The only issues I've run into is sometimes enemies get stuck under a cliff and it causes a pretty big lag spike.

Very fun, the quality is great and the sound effects are so chunky and well picked.

Great game, I like the combat and the skill tree

Super fun to play, lcontrols felt smooth and overall a nice looking game

very fun with cool mechanics

Game is super fun and could easily see this being something I play with friends if there were more content. My only negative is that the parrying feels super weird with the animation being so much shorter than the actual parry. I think the the animation should either be lengthened or the window be shortened so that they fit but also have the enemy attack indicator only show at a consistent interval from their attack so it is easier to know when to parry. Despite this I would recommend it as a fun experience with a cool skill tree and adorable characters. BOOM you just got Big Borris Review'd. Good day.

Pretty addictive, thought I would just try a couple of runs but had me hooked for a bit. Did keep getting stuck on random bits of the map but not a huge deal.

Wasn't sure I was going to like it, but it was actually pretty fun. Probably the most solid game loop I've seen in the jam

Fun game. Original characters. Just the right amount of blood. Good upgrade model - each upgrade makes the next run just a little easier (with learned skills), but that boss is tough!

Great game! Very easy to get in to and good variety between the different levels. Nice job!

Simple, yet elegant game with a ton of replayability. I could see myself putting lots of hours in of pure enjoyment!

I love the art direction in this game !!! Congrats !

cute lil game, played it a lil bit on my own. think it can be a great game to play with friends, so will invite some to try soon!

Beautiful world, background, music, and characters, large enemy variety too. Combat feels a little weird, you don't hit enemies as warrior unless they're right in front of you and in the same height; Parrying is high risk low reward, only a few enemies have a windup obvious enough to warrant a parry, the rest are so subtle or quick, it's best not to try. The upgrades and characters actually kept me for a long time, there's a level of replayability, but not much content, at the time of this review, there's only one level and 2 bosses. Overall, one of the better entries in the gamejam! Will nominate! [Once the review is confirmed, $10 will be wired into your account, remove this part in brackets from the review]

I'm SO FLUFFY! Pewpewpewpew <3 One more round?!

CUTE GRAPHICS!! Lots of polish and care went into this, from the clay-ish shader on everything, to the ants sometimes forming lines in the background. Many unique enemies, fun to play with friends! I wish there were more upgrade paths you can take with some heroes (cleric), more bosses and stages, and of course in the long run a story. Sometimes you snag up on a lot of stuff, especially the background rocks.

I never played this sort of game genre before, but the game plays well and looks great. With the time that they had to build this, it was well executed.

i think it's an alright game! some feedback: - combat felt clunky, enemy attack animations weren't really telegraphed well - boss fight was fun, but you could just go behind the mushroom and own it - i think the classes were a little uninteresting, maybe it could do with some more attack types (e.g. ultimates)? now all it needs is some more content and it'll be a great game! i will revisit.
