What a lovely little game! Although the maidens and knights beating me were too harsh for my little wizard body... Also, the fact that I couldn't get any money to buy potions, which I didn't really need anyways.

Anyways, any hints on how to get the secret ending? Do I have to complete the game in a certain amount of time?

So glad you had fun with it! I did try tweaking the enemies as they used to be way more troublesome and could really stunlock you, but I do want them to still pose some sort of challenge.

The potions are actually the key to the secret ending. They can heal you or they can be used to help others. People sometimes accidentally throw out money with their trash ;)

The timer at the end is just for people who want to try and beat their time.

You can actually heal using the water fountain/troughs outside the stores so you don't have to rely on potions

Thank you so much for playing! It means the world to me that even one person has played it :)

Thank you! However, I already know about the water fountains.
