You did a really good job for the amount of time. Only thing that took a hot sec to get use to is the stop and attack. I have not played a stop and attack style game in a while (resident evils last know ones for me). I honestly want to see this become more. 

Very cool! I personally thought the slow attack worked quite well, felt very “classic”. Impressed with all the polish, considering you got 3 whole boss fights, some actual lore and really impressive art overall. A lot of stuff just works well, i.e. dialog skipping when refighting a boss, puzzles staying solved even if you die… Also gotta give some credit for the abilities feeling unique, I didn’t predict what I was gonna get to get past the obstacles.

I could nitpick that the dialog had a few typos, the keyboard control scheme is a bit odd, and that the character’s pose looks a bit too stiff and upright when she’s dashing, but that’s minor stuff. Overall, really great!

The polish is amazing, everything was air-tight and work as they should! I especially enjoy the lore and the fact that there are 3 boss fights that utilizes the moves you unlock through your journey(The thirst-bait character designs are also a bonus), along with a banger soundtrack to go with them! I shall nitpick a bit here but that doesn't change just how incredible and complete this experience is!

Ok the nitpick: As an action game, everything from animations, dialogue, and movement can be sped up and it would make the gameplay more enjoyable. 

The whip. Oh boy the whip. It's slow, travels only in 4 directions where enemies can move omnidirectionally, have a small hitbox, and it moves you forward. It might be the worst feeling main attack that gets you hit more than it hit things. It's probably a conscious choice to make the trash mob a threat, but with the current pace of the game, we can encounter less trash mobs and gauntlets and it would not hurt.

Nitpick over, I still really enjoyed the game and this is quite an achievement for just 30 days! Congratulations!

Yeah you did very well with the time you had. 

This is just an all-around well-made entry.

Unfortunately I am a part of the 'felt a bit too slow' crowd. The main attack stops you completely, dashing into those pad things to destroy them, heck even the text has kind of a "reverse buffer" system going on that stops you from reading on even if you try to skip lines.  I think the delays were in a little bit of everything which is why the 'too slow' became a common point. But I appreciate that the gameplay delays are necessary to create the kind of play style you were leaning towards.

I think that people's main complaint is that (and this is just my interpretation of the 'too slow' criticism) they wanted to be able to do more with this game shows that it's a top contender.

Really good game. Attack spacing took some getting used to but I actually enjoyed having that bit of friction at the start give way to eventually mastering the combat and the overall the pacing of the gameplay felt perfectly fine to me, I don't agree with the complaints about it feeling too slow. I suppose if one thing did feel a bit slow to me it would be the dash which felt like it could use a little extra range to make it feel more impactful. Art is gorgeous, game is fully featured and well polished, story is... well I'm personally not a huge fan of "death is actually good and necessary" themes as a rule but having a substantial amount of well thought out writing in a jam game is always massive bonus points. Easily a top tier entry. Really liked how the teleport worked too, being able to set up my dodges ahead of time in the final boss was fun and set it apart from just being another dash.
