What do you think?

Hey! Just wanted to tell you that the story idea is really interesting and intriguing and pixelated games such as Undertale, old Zelda and Mario games are in my favorite games. So, if you ever need help with voiceacting, i'd be honored to help and all my info is in my bio. Have a great day!

Very well made and designed boss.

Just killed the boss and it was SOO SATISFYING. I think the insane difficulty emphesised the euphoria I gained after defeating it as opposed to the souls bosses.

I am up to the first boss, recording for my yt, and it is superb. The combat is fluid, unforgiving and fun - very reminiscent of the souls series. My one problem is that the hollow king has an absurd amout of hp, the first phase is challenging, fun and rewarding. His second phase however, is a sponge of hp with poorly telegraphed moves.

other than that i love the game.

I've played a small amount of this game so far and it's very fun!

Windmills is a combat-focused metroidvania. You will have to fight dangerous monsters and the only thing you can rely on are your abilities!
The combat system is based on suppressing, deflecting, dodging and parrying. As you progress through the story, more mechanics are unlocked, giving you more options for combat and exploration.

A big part of the mechanics are the reversals. Deflecting at the right time or parrying projectile spells, gives the player extraordinary abilities for a small amount of time. For example you can parry a lightning spell and charge your next attack with the element of lightning.

The story unfolds in a unique way, depending on the way you play the game. For example, depending on your actions, areas can change because the narrator will remember things differently.

After a year since conception, I am finally entering the final phase of development. It has been quite a journey with its ups and downs. The game is very close to what I aimed for and I really hope you will enjoy it!

Windmills has finally a Beta Release!

After many months of development and a lot of painful polishing and optimization, the latest beta is pretty close to what I aim for the players to experience in the final game. Give it a try!

The Alpha build of my metroidvania has just been released! I am both happy and nervous, I hope people grasp what it is about and accept its challenge. You can play it here https://gamejolt.com/games/windmills/636141

Advanced enemies can feint their attacks to catch you off-guard!
