my highscore ended up being 61 on like my 10th run or so, although i played for much longer after that without ever reaching over 50 again. i tried using the whole platform to dodge, but it still sometimes felt really unfair when the blade changes directions while directly above you and your crouch ends automatically. interestingly, i never had this problem when jumping over the blade even though these two things should behave the same way... 
anyways, i really enjoyed the atmosphere and i did genuinely jump each time my head got cut off. 

Oppressive yet addicting gameplay. Loved the among us/ultrakill sound effect lol. Definitely got sucked in by this game :) good job!

What an atmosphere that was. I loved the game. Visually, I love it, and the sound design is great. The gameplay is simple and kind of addictive. It’s hard, but I think that’s a good thing. The only issue is that sometimes it would change height while it was above my head, which felt unfair. But again, if you follow the light, you can kind of predict it and avoid getting caught. Great jam submission!

I hate this game. But it's still really good. I honestly think, that maybe more of an easing into the game would be good. I could barely make it past five points really. Maybe there's just some more of a buildup before the harder stuff comes, but that could just be a skill issue. Also, I'd love to see the horror elements incorporated further, like more of a kind of haunted atmosphere, but that's just 'cause I'm in love with horror. Still, this is incredibly creative and definitely not what I expected from a game jam like this lol. Probably a solid 9/10. :)
