Movement feels great once you get going - took me a while to figure out wallrunning but it was really fun jumping around and the swinging felt nice and fluid too.  I like that your HP is how many fingers you have left, that's a neat way to it without relying on a hud. 

Also really love the art style and overall aesthetic!

...you could say it's a hands up display

Very original, very creative and polished as well. Can't believe this is made within 4 days. What a great game.

 Damn, I didn't expect to see a game here with such a unique style and the ability to run on walls! The game literally forces you to think faster so as not to lose your fingers, and offers an incredibly cool concept with an amazing degree of detail. I would love to play a full-fledged project of this level - it is incredibly captivating and addictive from the first minutes!

I love the atmosphere and the approach to combat, great job!

Cool Game Buddy! nice work!
controls and narration can be better though

Love the art style. I've seem other games have you count down with your fingers but this one was a particularly cool way to do it. I think for this jam, I would have actually liked to see less movement mechanics. Feel like I didn't get to really explore each mechanic to it's fullest before getting introduce to a new one.

Yeah I agree to be honest, I wanted to give the player more time to master each mechanic before moving onto the next one but just didn't have enough time. Theres even some mechanics I added that I wasn't able to introduce somehow. I guess its a lesson for next time to dedicate less time to mechanic building and more to level creation, good lesson to learn tbh

This is absolutely stunning! Tossing enemies off a cliff is so much fun, and I love the gritty pixelated style of the game! The movement is fantastic overall, but I think it's a little difficult to throw enemies into each other, because you need to look up so that they don't hit the floor first and stop the toss mid action. There are plenty of other ways to deal with them though :) Amazing work!

I've never played a parkour game before, so this was definitely a challenge! Such a cool game

A parkour blood wizard? What a premise. And the movement feels great too!

INCREDIBLY strong style in not just art but movement. Great tutorial too. Fantastic premise on top of it all.

my favorite artstyle in this jam so far. absolutely love it. the atmosphere is cool. I really really liked the cogs or something that was up in the air after coming from the walljumps level. the parkour felt satisfying.

Very inspired by Ultrakill in the best ways possible. Genuinely surprised this was able to be complete in such a short amount of time! Please stick to working on this even after the jam I feel like it would be such a good steam release.

the movements are even quite challenging!

Submitted(+1)

The movement was so satisfying! Reminded me of ultrakill with the very cool almost pixle-y graphics!!!

Submitted(+1)

Had quite a bit of stutter when i started playing (but it slowly went away overtime)

The art was gorgeous tho, and the gameplay was really fun :3

Submitted(+1)

A really cool game but a difficult one too! It was quite a challenge to time the multiple wall jumps correctly! Other than that, I really like the art and music. They fit the theme really well. Great job!

awesome game, I searched finger. and found this game. I struggled with the wall run mechanism at the start, i was using mouse to face at the wall, but I could have simply tapped/hold a or d to stick at the wall and at the same time facing to the direction I am going to.

impressive graphics I really like the hand model

I'd love to have downloadable version to get rid of the lags. The game looks incredible !

The vibes are sooooo cool
