It's a really good game. The art, music, gameplay and atmosphere are all superb and while it starts slow, turns into the most beautiful bullet hell game I've seen. Great entry as always :)

I did get stuck at a certain point however and couldn't progress further as there were still two demons left, but I couldn't find them anywhere.

Great game, loved the feel of the game. It really feels you put your heart into it.

Thank you for sharing it :)

This was a really fantastic game. The art and music made a great atmosphere. The game was definitely on the challenging side but I think it's a great game especially for only working on it for a week. Awesome job!

I overall liked this game. The best part is the story/poem and the games atmosphere. I found the game too difficult, especially because I see it more as a story driven game, then a challenging shooter game. I found a small bug that meant, that even though I have killed all the enemies the enemies number was not zero and I was there for able to continue.  But anyway is this a good jam game. Well done. 

Really beautiful game, and not just in terms of visuals (though the visuals are also amazing looking). The symbolic imagery and deeper meaning of the game in general is something that I thought worked extremely well, with the really lovely poem backing up the attempts at making every mechanic not only cohesive to the game itself, but to the thematic elements as well. The difficulty was also something I found good for the most part, though the last level was a bit of an issue, mostly for when you had to walk into a dead end and got trapped, but I still stuck with it because I was really immersed into it. Along with that little issue with the difficulty I also must say that I found the player's walk animation to feel considerably lower quality than the rest of the artwork in the game, it just didn't feel quite the right speed and ended up being a bit awkward looking. Even with these small points though, I really loved this one.

A game with a lot of feeling is tough in a short game jam. But between the character design, music, and text, there was great atmosphere. It could get a little hard or frustrating sometimes but nothing horrible. Great job!

wow just wow! The Atmosphere is just amazing. As Mark said the message in the game is really good also the music is on point. It fits the theme very well!

Thank you for making this lovely game!

Absolutely lovely game. I really enjoyed atmosphere, the message . The enemies spawn sound, with headphones, really seem to be scratching in your head. This is one of the few games on the jam that actually pulled me in and immersed me in the experience. The build up of mechanics is also very well done including their introduction.

I only have two complaints, and they are both visually, the footstep animation is not really synced up with the movement speed and I would have loved if there where a few more sprites for rotational stances, so that the character could "look" in the direction of the mouse cursor. But that is all, love it.

Great atmosphere all around
Loved the demons' designs, the animations and sound design

Same as most people, I couldn't get past lvl4
Still enjoyed it and could feel the jam's theme very strongly
Good job!

Great game! it was very hard at lvl5. lvl 4 was hard enough lol. rly kewl graphics! I love the art style!

the environment is rly well designed and reminds me of btp(blackthornprod)

keep up the great work!

ps: i left a good rating ;) u deserve

It was hard at level 4, 

God knows I just tried  but no, 

Demons crawled to me to play

They just found another way

Engaging atmosphere and story. 

It was fun!:)

a nice little game. The atmosphere is nice, the decor is nice and the controls are fluid. I really like the design of the enemies. The player is very well guided at the beginning and the game is mastered very quickly. 

Well done!

Love the atmosphere you have created, the art of the enemies is pretty cool and all the detailed animations makes a diference. Great Job!

Wow, good job dude! At first I had a hard time because I thought I couldn't kill the enemies, I would suggest making an animation for the enemys showing that they got hit, because I thought my projectils were just supposed to push them away. But once I find the second character I was like "Oh hell yeah here we go, now let's see who kills who!". I also found amazing that the timing of the bullets made them sound like a heartbeat. 

I found a little issue with the audio in case you wanna fix it, if you change the volume settings and go back to the main menu they reset to their original values.

Keep up the good work! :)

Beautiful game although I find it a little bit anticlimatic. But other aspects were definitely beautiful. Especially the music and the poems. ^^

The writing, graphics, and music all blend together very well. Very creative to tie your poem in with the game mechanics - using writing like that is not easy. The shooting mechanic is also fun to play around with, and I like how you gradually introduce different game mechanics to keep the game interesting.

One thing I would have liked to see more audio feedback for the shooting and for when enemies die. Since the later levels have lots of enemies, they tend to group up, and I think it'd be a lot more satisfying to mow them all down if there was a death sound effect. I also think the later levels should be a little more forgiving, as you only have one life and the enemies ramp up in numbers quickly,

Very enjoyable experience overall, and I'm glad I came across this game. Great job!

Awesome job, the game was fun and honestly a bit stressful at first trying to sneak around the enemies.
