Very interesting game. Lots of cool mechanics (I always love a good parry mechanic), and a slowly destroying world makes it challenging too! Cool game!

The controls are a little unintuitive. But it is a neat idea for sure.

Interisting game! dashing is lowkey op

The game was pretty fun! (kinda hard tho) I would add some sound effects and lower the volume of the music

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah only sound effect was parrying and that was just me hitting my microphone!

Interesting idea, but the controls are a bit unorthodox. My middle mouse button gave out after the first level, so sadly I couldn't get further than that.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I was planning on allowing custom controls but did not have enough time.

The dash is so much more powerful than the jump! Pretty hard game but that is a very nice idea.
