Well, I really enjoyed that game! A play session of only twenty minutes and I was immersed immediately, the art, the presentation, even the tutorial was super professional, everything was first class! I certainly favoured some juror types over others (spamming pushovers was my key to victory!) but I'll definitely replay to try out other strategies. Each trial having its own unique challenge was such a lovely touch, I can't believe all of this was produced in 2 days! Well done to you, great job!

A great little game, the mood, art style, setting, and gameplay are air-tight, I would buy a full length version in a heartbeat!
A note to other players, it looks like no other controller but Xbox will do, I couldn't get my generic Power-A Nintendo Switch wired pro-controller recognized. The keyboard controls, very thoughtful addition, are completely serviceable though. The game is a bit cpu-intensive, I have a very everyday laptop and while the game did run, there was noticeable lag when I walked around. I still enjoyed my playthrough very much regardless.
SPOILER ALERT!!
A final thought on the ending. Likely it was simply a necessary quick finish to a game jam game, but it really hit me hard! The game begins with the demon bemoaning being stuck cleaning dungeons 'forever'. This is the line every hero delivers before some great event kickstarts their story. You clean some dungeons, cry for the blobs, go to your room. The end. No break from the ordinary, and you realize the demon has no story. He's stuck, no joke, forever. I'll think of him every time I go into a dungeon, poor guy!
