Difficult but I got so close! I'll try it again soon. Very cool idea!

Very difficult to progress in this game, but it was very fun!

Submitted

Its really difficult to get the second upgrade

This is a great idea and excellent for a first game. Art is simple but goes a long way, music is a great choice, and I like the system of powerups. The one thing I'm not into is the balancing. I think the windows for unlocking upgrades could be better thought out, and I really don't like the spinning attack. It doesn't really require any skill to dodge and once it starts the game grinds to a halt while you just stand there waiting for it to finish. That's an outlier though, and the rest of the game is well made and pretty fun.

Very cool, I love that the player has no health but you get stunned as punishment :)

The hit feedback could be better and holding attack for keep attacking (my finger hurts from pressing :D)

Great work, keep it up!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback.

Congratulations on your first game! It's already really cool for a first one :D Next time, try to emphasize the hits and stun with more juice and effects. The health bar that moves when hit is already a nice piece of juice though. Well done!

Developer

Yeah I need to learn effects and UI. Thanks for the feedback

Fun game! I liked the attack variety and the fact that there were 2 fazes.

I am not sure I like the upgrade system. If its not possible to beat the boss without them you should have them all unlocked from the start, so its fair. I just don't like the roguelite meta progresion aspect. 

Developer

Thank you for trying the game.

Super fun! Great first game!

Developer

Thanks for playing the game.

A simple but very fun game, I like the combat and the feeling of being able to deal high damage from a far and up close at the end. Very nice job!

Developer(+1)

Happy that you enjoyed the game .Thank you playing.

It seemed impossible, but I after three attempts I got the first upgrade, which seemed useless at first. But then a couple tries, I got the second upgrade, and it was smooth sailing from there. Very satisfying progression. Congratulations on your first game!

Developer

Thank you <3.

Developer (1 edit)

It should be beatable. Thank you for trying.

Submitted(+1)

Dude, the boss got all the cool moves and I can only throw punches 😭 It’s pretty good for a first game. Great job.

Developer

You should be able to throw rocks and get a sword later on. Thank you for trying the game

Developer

Thank you <3

That's a tough boss. Nice work on your first game, the concept is great.

Developer

ty <3.

Dude, if this is actually your first game, it's amazing! Really fun little boss fight! The short timer creates a lot of pressure, and discovering the progression system? wow! sadly i only made it to the first 2 upgrades and couldn't finish the fight, it's way too hard. It's a surprisingly complex game, the boss attacks are not trivial! great job!

Developer

Thank you for trying the game.

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting idea and I can see it working really well if you expand on it.

Developer

Thank you <3.

Wasn't able to reach 50%, from reading the comment I se there would have been an upgrade menu then, but hey, I guess I'm just bad haha! Good job on making your first gam during this jam!

Developer

Yeah, I guess it is a bit tough. Thank you for playing.
