Really enjoyable!

Gameplay: The scepter protection was an interesting mechanic (though sometimes it seems like they could still see you). The controlling both characters was also interesting. I liked dialogue it was good too.

Graphics: I liked the art but maybe player walking animations would be nice.

Audio: The music and SFX were good.

Innovation: Pretty good! 

Theme: Only a moon beam can protect this village from terrible demons. An ancient scepter is the only thing that can deliver the shot.

Overall: Good game!

Can you try (and review) my game?

I wish there was a Story or Atmosphere category or something so I could give you a 5 stars there. I'm a sucker for pixel graphics, and your low res chunky pixels looked really good, felt like a homage to old games with a bit of a modern cheats and I love it! The gameplay was its own thing. I liked the mechanics, but some were a bit unexplored, the buttons and revealing pathways weren't really explored. It felt like the focus was on controlling both characters at the same time, which was very hard to do. I like the ideas, and I'm sure if you had more time to develop more puzzles and levels you could work those mechanics to new heights.  But yeah, this is a solid submission. Good job!

Very fun game. The story is engaging and well presented, and the different mechanics are introduced perfectly well! Loved controlling both characters, even with the difficulty spike when the horde comes into play ;) Great job!

This was a really fun game! I liked the pixel art and the music, along with all the different stealth/grouping mechanics (once I got used to them).

Sometimes when I was running away from a horde, it would count as me having died even though the demons didn't touch either character. Not sure what that was all about.

The story and dialogue were also really cool to see!

Hey this was a great game! Nice mechanics with switching the player and split screen, sometimes it felt as if the scepter did not register or I still didn't figure out how to use it lol anyhow find my video review below!

16:20 Moon Witches

Yay! A really fun game! not too hard or too easy :) Loved the graphics, and loved the way the screen split! So freaking cool!

BTW i dont know if this is a feature or not, i noticed that I can hide from the demons if i cling to trees:

So here (and also on a previous occasion) I just stood next to trees, out of the demon-stream’s way, and managed to survive :)

That was really good! I loved the narrative and you did some really cool things with the scepter mechanic. The part where you had to control both of the witches at the same time was incredibly difficult. I had to switch to controller to even get through it, so I was happy gamepad controls worked. My only real feedback is that I feel like there should have been some intense music when the monsters were swarming you. It felt kind of weird that the music was still calm in such an intense situation. That being said, I really liked everything about this game. All of the sound effects set the mood well and as I mentioned before, I really enjoyed the mechanics. Great job with this one!

Great game! Really liked the music, though at a few places there was none when it would've added a lot of value in my opinion.

The gameplay was really interesting. Changing between the two characters brought a nice twist into the game. Also the difficulty progression was nice (maybe the part where you have to run with both characters individually at the same time was a bit hard :D).

The end was a abrupt, but I think we all know how short a month is to complete a game :).

Good job! We had a blast playing the game!

Moody and wonderful.  I loved the music!

Excellent game! Loved the stealth mechanics with timer for the scepter use and the horror like atmosphere!
I really like the spit screen effect when you play as the little girl!
Not to mention the demon horde later. That was scary!!
As other commenters already said, the village at the beginning should have being smaller (I almost gave up there, really glad I didn't!). A much smaller village would have been more than enough for the atmosphere.
Great job!

I love it! So many little details. We're very well guided and learn very well the individual skills or gameplay elements. A very great game you have created there. The only thing I found annoying was the too big village at the beginning. You have to wander around too much without anything happening. Congratulations! It had the first 5* awarded!!!

Wow, lovely game! The sfx for their speech was super cute and the difficulty increased at a very nice pace. Great job!

That was a lot of fun- loved the writing and the mechanics were good (if not a lil’ mindbending for my level of coordination!).

I made it to the end after a few tries though!
