the game was really good for playing I found no reason for not liking the game.. but one thing I found was that whenever you take damage, you does not get any visual feedback.. overall nice game and the art style was awesome...

Great work on the art, looks really nice. Just from the cover & screenshots I was keen. I had a bug where the sound didn't play, but after restarting it was all good and added a lot to the game!
I enjoyed the gameplay, it's kind of similar to our 3d submission.
I was a little confused by the unlocks and didn't realise I'd unlocked abilities or that they had a limited use. Maybe just adding a bit more of a visual indicator when you unlock something to help highlight it to the player more intuitively?
The pixel art is great and the animations look good. The music and sound effects really give it a good game feel. I think something is wrong though as the game seems like it was running like at like 10x speed. All of the animations and movement were really sped up. Also I couldn't seem to continue to the next level. After I beat the boss, an arrow came up, but I couldn't figure out how to move to the next stage. I tried all the directions, c, enter, space, etc.
Pretty cool game! I was amazed with the graphics. However, this is totally broken on my PC. I have a monitor that goes up to 240Hz... So I think the framerate is cranking to that... Making this a very... "Fast" demo for me. lol
Otherwise, good job!!!
Fun game! The graphics were awesome! Did you make them or where did you get them? Game play was fun, it looked like the attack would hit both in front of you and behind you, but I think it only did damage in front of you. This was due to the HUGE arc of the weapon. The only other issue I had was that the HP bar was very small and actually I didn't even notice it was there until I was at the end of level 2. Great game, thanks!
Errs a bit on the easy side, but the action platforming gameplay is otherwise quite fun. Visuals and sound design are excellent. Very good game overall.
The game is excellent but I don't consider the monster that always chases the player to be perpetual but from time to time when it is a simple level and it is not perpetual
Cool game! Unfortunately i can't progress past the first level. Also the game seems to run a bit to fast on my PC, might be related to 144 hz? Loved the graphics
Great sprite work! Found it a bit funny that the animation freezes on the last frame while holding the attack key. After killing the teleporting boss, although I had an indicator to move right, i could not progress unfortunately.
Good work from what I was able to play though. :)
Hey thanks for making the game! One thing I want to immediately say, I absolutely love the background arts! Out of the 3 levels, the forest is my favorite! The enemies looked very nice, but there was a bit of confusion on design choice I think as the skeleton enemies had a different style compared to the rest of the enemies and environment. The combat was nice, but I wish there was a more indication of being able to use projectiles as I was so confused when I started shooting with a sword. I was also confused if the red enemies were fighting other enemies since they were randomly slashing at each other. Those are minor nitpicks though, awesome game!
