How does your game fit the theme?
Our game fits the theme of countdown by focusing in a world about time running out, your currency, attack, and very life are built on time and all of them countdown as you continue, you can earn and lose time based on your actions but will you have enough to complete the game in the end.

Great game, love the thematic choice. Makes a nice dynamic when you time your attacks perfectly. I had some bugs (the orb launching enemy running away through the wall of the arena), but otherwise great gaming experience.
Oh yeah, when we realized that, it was too late 😂 . Thanks for the feedback!
Super cute game! I really enjoyed playing it even if my timing sucked
I especially liked the music and sfx as I felt like it made the game a lot more receptive to my inputs :D
I enjoyed it though it turns out I'm not so good at timing for the attacks to do more damage I like the idea though and when I did hit it right it felt good
Combat is really fun once you get into the groove. wait say that again. The character designs look awesome too
You mean the Ghouls?👀
Awesome! The artwork for the staff wielder is next level. Reminds me of hollow knight design. I really think you could make an awesome metroidvania with those art skills!
W idea, combining health, powerups, and rhythm into a timeline that is always counting down is a really cool concept, and I think you guys executed that very well.
I am sucker for beat based games. Real neat
