Obviously you made the art yourself which i find really admirable and i find the main character well animated, and some of the enemy designs are really nice. i also liked the music. the combat feels a bit repetitive, but yeah only so much you can do in a game jam of course. I really like the athosphere and the lore and the story you created. Well done!

I like the vibe and general setting that its building. Music was interesting and I like the really off-putting feel that the citadel track has. It fits well with the forced happy masks the people seem to be wearing. All the artwork stands out pretty well, save for the ground which can be very very dark sometimes, making it hard to tell what's supposed to be walkable and what's a hole. Animations look fluid, though the player animations seem to hitch when swapping between states as it bounces back to idle and can get stuck on the falling animation if you press jump a couple times in succession.

Combat feels a little jank. Everything is fast, but almost maybe a little too much? Enemies stay perfectly tracked onto the players position, and while you do seem to be faster than most, it makes all the enemies feel a little same-y and can lead to enemies easily dog piling you, sapping away your health like it's nothing. When I got to the boss in the sewers, I kinda didn't really engage with it normally because it spammed a lot of projectiles and I didn't think that player mobility or the map itself was really suited to it, so instead I took advantage of the fact that the boss health didn't reset on death and just threw myself at it while spamming to inevitably win.

I find the concept interesting and the horror aspect of this fascinating, but it is a bit rough around the edges. Good work to you and your team on making it, though. I'm fairly impressed with what you've managed here despite my take aways.
