There is not rlly much to change on the settings which is quite frustrating despite that this game is only playable with controler or otherwise you just have to use the arrow keys other than that a great game

It's fun, it's cheap, but the damage system feels awful, there is no knockback or cooldown when taking damage but atleast all the enemies die in one hit.

why knight always throw its weapon instead of using it like an actual fighter? dose he also have a broken brain? broken armor is a short game that a knight must find a holy grail at bottom of a dungeon. he will face many enemies and bosses and you player shall aid him. and thats it. there is no twist no deep story. nothing. the music has a retro vibe to it . its simple and forgetable but is still enjoyable. the graphic and scenery is ...... its like an arcade game , so its cool? yeah have fun with it. its not beautiful but its not ugly either. its just so basic and uninspired. the gameplay is also so basic just move around gather weapon and throw it. gather coin for buy more throwable weapon or health. the bosses are not unique in designs and the patterns are so yet again its basic. its an ok game that you can full achieve it under 2 hour. its easy and everyone can do it. IN CONCLOUSION: broken armor is like a bland food. its not a bad food , you can eat it. or maybe even enjoy it if you are too hungry. but its bland and forgetable. yet it will fill your desires for a short period of time like an snack. i recommend this game becuse its really cheap and dosent have anything bad about it. but it dosent have anything good too. 4/10 why broken armor though? thats one of the dumbest name i had ever heard for a game

Finally got around to 100%ing this game and I am satisfied that I did, it's a rougelike but with very NESy game design. (in a good way though) the only bug I encountered was on my first attempt at getting the 50K points achievement, where the game bugged out and did not spawn the grail needed to beat the game. However I did later clear it on my 2nd try. very good for those who want a smaller more bite sized game while not sacrificing quality. very much worth the buck spent.
