I really enjoyed the intro! I agree with some of the other comments regarding the slashing animation and maybe a little bit more tutorial at the beginning would be helpful. Overall great job!
Thanks!!!! And thanks for the feedback as well!
I really liked the various inscriptions on the background, some dashes - it looks really cool. And overall, the graphics are cool!
The controls themselves are good, but here's the difference between tapping and attacking - have mercy!
And it's such a cool project, I got high playing it.
Thanks!!!! I feel honored my project was cool enough for someone to get high while playing it.
the art and music are quite nice. I'm too bad at it so kill enemy and pick healing item cost too much time. The only way i can go further is to ignore enemies and rush through to level 2 then stuck there. Generally i wish actions could be faster, like faster slashing and healing, jump with higher gravity etc.
Thanks!!!! Feedback is duly noted :D
nice story hehehe
Thanks!!!! What choice did you choose?
Cool take on the theme with an interesting art style and cool music! I was a little confused on what I was actually doing, I kinda just ran forward and slashed. I do wish the slash animation was faster, I wasn't sure at first what it was doing. Overall, nice job on this one! Thanks for making and sharing it!
Thanks!!!! May you tell me how to make tutorials better?
Thank you about the music! Glad to hear you enjoyed it and the game :D - composer
I really love the look of this, and the controls are very smooth and responsive! I'm terrible at platformers so I couldn't make it past the second level, but the level design seems well thought out.
Thanks!!!! Don't worry, the second level isn't bad at all, considering there is only 3 levels!
The fast pace and the distorted music gives a real sense of urgency, you've really nailed the atmosphere here. Admittedly I feel like I'm not sure what I was actually doing, most of the time, I just ran to the right and jumped over things a lot haha
Hehe thanks! I was the composer for this game :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!
