The game's concept is really solid. However, I got so caught up in the action at times that I missed some of the instructions, so there were moments when I had no idea why I had suddenly become invincible (or maybe it was a bug).

Overall, though, I really enjoyed the game. I like the art style, and the level design is well done too.

This is simply wonderful and so funny. Loved it! COngrats!

Loved the way you took the theme, I love the trope of "Well if I'm predicted to die from X,then Y can't kill me!" and you did a good job with it in the time you had, I could see this being expanded on into a full game!

Honestly had a blast playing that, it wasn't until level 6 that I realised that only what the devil SAYS is what kills you :o really charming and well thought out premise, my only complaint is I wish it was longer! c:

This is such an awesome concept lol, also super exciting level design - my favourite part was the narrative though as I feel it's so expandable!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game! The idea is hilarious while also clever. Each level did a great job with teaching the hazard/mechanic of the level while also making it more and more challenging. I love that getting hit by the bus once helps your back and that the lighting helps with adjusting the gates. Also, the art is very enjoyable.

Thank you so much, I’m really glad you liked the levels! We tried to teach mechanics one by one but since we only had so much time to work with we also had to make those same levels challenging, which proved a real challenge in and of itself.

Really fun concept, great spin on theme, strong visuals. I like how each level was like a puzzle instead of simply avoiding dying. Great stuff!

I think all the visual art combined with the music and sound effects it’s perfect and i love it, starting with the cover up to all the levels and even the menu. The mechanic is simple but very effective and well made. In conclusion a really good and fun game!

This is a super fun premise and gameidea. I just felt it a bit annoying during playing that the hitboxes were not clear or larger than projected, which made it a bit frustrating. Other than that: excellent!

Hiii, it's a really hard game, but very interesting and fun—though it's a shame there are no volume settings for the sound and music.

And I couldn't beat level 4 ,_,

ayy fun game

Very tricky to adjust to avoiding something, but then having to have it help you. Very cool!

I skipped the instructions initially and had one of the funniest experiences ever. One of the most creative and fun games I've played so far

Take that unlore-accurate devil!

What a creative idea and fun game! I really enjoyed the wario-ware style of frentic challenges keeping me on edge the entire time.

What could make it a little better would be to have audio cues, like voice acting, giving me the information of what to watch out for so I don't have to look into the corner of my screen all the time while playing a hectic action game.

Still, played through to the end and had a blast!

It was fun (to be honest, I was intrigued specifically by the very familiar design of the devil).

Hey that was sick! Really clever with the whole "oh you can only die this one way so the other ways are helpful in gameplay"!
