This turned out absolutely fantastic! I love the style of visual storytelling and the ambience of the world itself. The only thing left somewhat unclear to me (and this is probably due to time crunch, so no worries!) is the plant collection mechanic. Overall absolutely amazing work and I can't wait to see this fleshed out (pun intended haha).
Herald Of Flesh was the most fun I’ve had with all the games I’ve played! It was so unique and satisfying that I would love to see what you come up with next. A true masterpiece example of simple and fun.
I just started cutting tentacles because I loved attacking!
Sure it was a little buggy, the swings didn’t go through all the time, but it was so enjoyable I could care less about it’s flaws. The artstyle and gameplay were stellar you guys did amazing.
