very nice game! Boris feels kinda clunky when using the sword, but that may just be me. I couldn't really understand what was happening in the intro, but after reading how the theme was integrated, it makes more sense. soundtrack was nice! there was one moment where my game froze for a second, but then came back. no idea what caused it. this may just be a personal preference thing, but having maybe a count of how many enemies there are in a room that need to be slain to go to the next room would be better than just being randomly teleported to the next one. I got a little confused after I didn't go to the right side of the screen to go to the next room.

tl;dr, good work!

A nice platformer, and the sound fits well too. The only thing is I find the controls a bit clunky — for example, that you stay in the air when attacking.

Cool art and music, I only wish the game were a bit longer!

That was fun! The art is charming, the mechanics are competent, and the story is cute. I love the music; it is exceptionally spooky!

The audio seems to be imbalanced on my end. The level sound effects are a lot louder than either the intro or outro music, but the level music is quite quiet compared to everything else.

All-in-all, great work!

Short and sweet! The art and especially music were really on point on this one! Nice job!

Dude the art work is amazing in this game and the music is catchy too. I love the amazing intro cutscene in the game too. This game left me wanting more good work.

the vibes here are very cute and its hard not to like! the music is straightforward and pretty catchy, and after I got used to the controls it was fun to double jump around blasting draugr. best part imo was a bunch of the draugr going lemnings mode off the cliff at the end
