Here is the game link to play:
the best mechanic I like is that you will be immune to all damage when you dash at the last split second of the enemies' attacks(it's called dodge) and also
in the same way, you will be immune to all incoming damage when you hold down your slash button and release it at the same exact moment an attack comes in(it's called parry)
you will gain a short immunity effect duration(2s) when you perform a parry or a dodge,
there are also combos slash+dash, charged attackwave+dash and a lot a lot more
