How does your game fit the theme?
I revisited the myth of Orpheus : You play as Orpheus as he dives deeper into Hell to rescue his beloved one.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code.
I made Orpheus character mesh and his weapons.

The rest of the meshes, the animations, the VFXs, SFXs and the musics are assets from the Unreal Marketplace.

Nice work! Really liked the gameplay and as others said I think it has room for improvement and get more mechanics such as block/parry.
One thing I noticed is that it's too bright but I could be my monitor settings.

Also,  could you try our game too?
It's a 2d platformer, and it was our second game jam and one of our first games so far!
Your feedback would be really appreciated! :)

I really enjoyed this game.

I really liked the concept and am amazed at how much you put together in a week! I enjoyed the combat and the rolling. I agree with Gui Fritis on the invulnerability with rolls, but maybe also a block mechanic so you don't have to roll as much.  I hope you keep working on this because I'd love to see those additions!

Thanks for the feedbacks !
I wanted to add a blocking mechanic but didn't have time to implement it ^^

Very cool, I think the roll should make the character invunerable.

And if the attacks were a little faster, would improve the feel of the game.
