I'm sorry but 5 minutes is way too long for this type of game (I type furiously as I just died on a run 4 mins deep). I appreciate the souls-like dodging, but with attacks seemingly not having any effect, there seems to be no reason to directly engage with the boss?
Nevertheless, cool spritework and I was genuinely shocked to see the boss jump

The attacking is to disrupt the boss's charging attacks. It is not explicitly explained in the game so it is easy to miss that ;))) Thanks for playing man!

A cool soulslike game!! I did the normal difficulty and managed to survive! The visuals were the highlight for me and I thought the "boss" looked quite cool. Controls felt very smooth. Wasn't sure if it was possible to kill the boss or I just ran I of time. I thought I was hammering him! Congrats on your submission!

Well I intended to use narrative to explain the reason why the boss is unkillable, and that we are just "buying time", but I had no time lol. Thanks for stopping by.
