It was very enjoyable!

Fun arena brawler, I loved the art style and the gear mechanic, altough it sometimes felt like I couldn’t switch as much I wanted, maybe if it cost half an AP orb instead of the whole one. But overall an enjoyable experience.

Developer

Thanks! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it :D

This was a really fun little arena brawler and the color changing gear-bat mechanic was fresh enough to keep it interesting. The BGM had some neat little touches in it that felt really cool, like the "play ball" organ progression during the breakdown. Very nice little game

YAY! Glad to know the music felt engaging :D

Tough game but I found it surprisingly fun to beat up enemies while dodging their attacks. Btw the web build also worked perfectly fine for me

Very cool game!

Developer

Thank you for playing !

Submitted(+3)

really cool! was a bit hard and I wish the mechanics were introduced a bit more steadily. Otherwise really enjoyed the experience, graphics, sound, and was happy to see it preformed well in browser! great job all around!

Developer

Thank you! Glad to hear the experience was enjoyable :D

Neat idea, love the art and music! I feel like the combat could benefit from being able to move while attacking, as well as giving the enemies a better indicator that they're about to attack so you can dodge out of the way.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Definitely something we're gonna take into consideration for next jams :)

Loved the music, especially the main menu, gives off lofi vibes; the design of the main character is super polished as well as the animations, good job! 

Developer

Thanks! Gab did a great job on the music indeed

Developer

YAY! Super happy to hear that :D

Insane quality! I would love more feedback before enemies hit so I could dodge easier. Otherwise really fun, love the animations, the controls are snappy, convenient arrows pointing to enemies, cool designs.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the kind words! Indeed the enemies could have had a bit more telegraphing, if we ever update the game that's probably gonna be a priority :)

Submitted(+2)

I really liked the music and graphics. It's a lot of fun to play! :D

Developer

Thanks! That means a lot to us :D

Really fun game with cool graphics specially the main character and the bgm that suits very well with the gameplay. Had a great time killing those enmies. :)

Developer

WOW amazing, basically a finished game. just a lil more polish and good to go! really nice concept, aesthetics and music are great too, feels very retro
i just wish the player got rewarded with mana (or whatever that is) for hitting the enemies with the right color,
would be cool if every wave consisted of enemies of at least two different colors, so you wouldn't have to hit them knowing you have no damage, just to change colors.

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! Happy to hear all this positive feedback :)
