Cool idea! I've seen a few people playing around with similar concepts for this, but this one had a fun vibe. Loved the speaker stack enemies running after you.

I liked the game's music and thought it was very creative; I also found the power-ups quite interesting.

Fun game! I just feel like the keybinds are a bit uncomfortable.

Loved the graphics and music. I was a little confused on the objective?

Very cool concept! It was very fun and I liked the art. Well done!

rather neat concept! one thing though is that i wish the indicator for what move you currently have access to was more apparent during gameplay so that my eyes didnt need to dart between the ring and fighting so much, whether through sound design or more contrast on the button wheel to show which icon is active. otherwise, i enjoyed it!

Very cool idea, reminds me of crypt of the necromancer :)
