Absolutely fantastic work to all four of you, the end result really shows the effort you put into your game. I thought it was super fun to play, and the design was very engaging. I thought the aesthetic/visual theme was very clever, the way the rats bunch up when chasing the player felt surprisingly realistic (if you have ever been chased by or seen, a swarm of rats). The audio was nice and simple, but created a good vibe for the game too. I think one thing that would have really contributed to the game would have been sounds for the crossbow (shoot & reload), but totally understand that the time constraints of a game jam means you have to cut some things here and there to ensure it's scope is appropriate to the available production time.

I couldn't really figure out how the first theme - 'possession' was incorporated into the games design however.

For your first game jam, you all did very well and you should be very proud of the end result. Kudos to you guys!

You guys did really well this game! I can see that there was a lot of thought put into how it all works and the models and art style was really nice! 

The game play was super nice and I really liked the feeling of getting swarmed by the rats and fighting them off. 

It would be nice to have a game mode where you can just have an endless arena battle mode to see how high of a score you can get. 

Overall you guys did great, was great fun to play. 

I really liked the movement and gameplay in this one, the song choice at first seemed sort of odd but it grew on me quite well.

My only problems with the game was i wanted to keep playing in the arena to see how much points i could score before failing and I didn't really find see the "possession" theme

However it was quite a blast to play and the mechanics are never explained but it was quite discoverable and gameplay was smooth.

this was a fun game to play, the only problem i came across was the UI scaling for my computer but in saying that i didn't play in window mode.
