Nice graphics, challenging game. I included it in my GMTK Game Jam 2019 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Looks great, feels good when it works, but I don't feel totally in control with the keyboard control, maybe add the mouse to rotation or controller support. Overall fun experience.

Actually we wanted to add gamepad controls, but didn't make it

This ran a little choppy on my machine. That being said I think the action in this game is dope! I'm a fan of cyberpunk samurai sorta stuff so this is right up my alley. I liked this game. Well done.

If you have time please play and rate my game: /jam/gmtk-2019/rate/463512

wow so I'm seeing a trend with my playing of games. I need to fully read the instructions. When I saw one button I thought literally one button so I was trying to play the game simply with slashes and I was like man this is impossible. Then I saw the wasd for movement.

The game really reminds me of a game I loved called mr shifty. But you put a really cool twist with just one button to dash and the bleeding out and such. 

I really was determined to beat this game b/c it was so much fun. I defeated all the enemies including the big guy you're chasing but then nothing happened except I bled out and died. I'm guessing there was no win screen. Either way it was really fun to play.

Thanks for review! We need to try mr.shifty, never played it if to be true. 

What about ending - it's a philosophical question. You've killed your rival, there is no enemies left, but you still suffering from bleeding and will die soon. It's a metaphor that every revenge doesn't change your life at all - it will just make you and other people suffer even more. Revenge - is worthless. No fancy endings, no credits, no applauds. That's the point.

We just don't have time to make proper ending

Pretty cool entry, nice implementation of the theme, and the "pursuit" of one guy isn't seen that often in games, The game feel is great here, I really liked the artstyle, music and theme !

I'd point just a small detail, i feel like you should make the lifebar pop a bit more, it is visible but it doesn't catch the eye imediately so you can be searching "where's my hp" for a little bit, maybe att a solid color behind it  that fit the shape or something, just a tiny issue though nothing much ;)

Overall it's quite good, you've got a strong base for a game here Congrats guys :)

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, you're right, hp bar doesn't that noticeable as it supposed to

Really cool, combos feel great. Not the most thematic, but you used it as a launching point and made a super cool game. I'm impressed with this, nice work!
