[Grain War] - Rogue-like Battle RPG Thread

Grain War

Story
In Grain war you play as a father who can't earn enough money to feed his young family and so decides to fight in the arena to earn some. In the arena you fight until you die. The longer you last and the more the crowd likes the fight, the more food your family receives. If you last long enough you will feed them for life.

Game-play
What would happen if "A Link to the Past" and "Risk of Rain" had a baby? That is the game I am trying to build.

I quite like the art direction! Simple, yet elegant.
I hope you add at least one more attack. I know you said Rogue-like, which I assume means procedural level generation and multiple weapons/equipment. I think having a couple/few attacks/blocks (maybe just quick/strong) for each item could really spice up the combat.

Looking forward to seeing more!

Are you thinking of something a la SMASH TV (because of the arena-rewards flavor)? The idea sounds quite intriguing and full of potential
Art style looks good. I love to see your progress on the game
