Congrats on the game! The production values are out of this world! The music, animation and sprite work are all top notch. I really appreciated being able to rebind the keys as well as the other options. Amazed how much the team accomplished in such a short amount of time. Going to have to keep watch on this one!

game: "alt-f4"

me: oh what does that do ag-- LOL

Haha awesome game, this was really on another level! I noticed sometimes I could go back and forth into bat form when I thought it was supposed to be on cooldown, but I'm not sure if maybe that was just a framerate related kind of a thing. So much fun!

Really cool game! Loved the story, although I didn't manage to get pass the 2nd fight against the hero and the wizard xD the visuals are great and the music as well. Awesome job, congrats!

Hey!

Thanks for playing and thank you for the comment! I'm glad you liked it!

If you're curious about the rest of the story; there's an accessibility option inside the main menu's option screen; it'll allow you to 2shot most enemies depending on how far up you put the slider! :D

Oh that's great, thank you! I'll try playing it again with that, the story was quite interesting and I want to see how it ends! :D

Submitted(+1)

Now I was able to finish the game  xD nice plot twist at the end, really loved the game, awesome job! :D

Really cool game! I am having a hard time beating the wizard, healer and hero at the same time. Anyone know a strategy to beat them? The visuals, the music are well polished. I had a lot of fun playing it. I also like the difficulty which makes it challenging enough to stay fun, but not too challenging where it is impossible

Hey! Thanks for playing and thank you for the comment, I'm glad you liked it!

The strategy I use myself is to focus on dodging fireballs (using dash/bat) until you have taken walter down and from that point forward it gets a whole lot easier :D

Wow, the polish on the game is amazing.

The music, sound effects, visuals, transitions all are so good.

Really like the game juiciness of the effects and readable enemy moves.

Also really like the characters and theme of the game - playing the villian side.

The game is really challenging at the end, I would say invincibility frames and hitboxes can be tweaked - but that's really nitpicking and balancing.

I'd like also some introduction of the available moves - only when the 2nd character joined I recognized what the drainblood-move was supposed to do.

Really well done creating an awesome game - especially for a gamejam!

Also props for adding an adjustable keybind-menu and accessibility option.

Keep up the progress - you got this!

fun game!

Really cool game. Couldn't beat the second round but an incredible game for the short amount of time.

Submitted(+1)

challenging game. I liked art, sounds etc. Overall.

Submitted(+1)

The theming was great! Sound, music, and aesthetics are very appealing; crazy how you four got this out within 10 days. I mechanics are great, but the difficulty is brutal, lol. I was able to get through three stages/boss fights; but, the difficulty made it a bit more frustrating than fun. Definitely, a game that may be fleshed out to publish.

Cool game, i would have made the attack system a bit smoother. 

Submitted(+2)

The music is so cool ,10/10

Art is so good too I like the moving cloud outside 

Mechanics is a little bit annoying when you attack because you cant move until the attack finish

and some attacks you can't dodge it with jumping because the collider of the attack is so big


Thanks For the game it is very cool

Very nice concept, with cool mechanics and super polished. 10/10

Submitted(+1)

This is an amazing game that is very well made. Good job on it. The graphics are amazing the sound and music are spectacular. This is very polished. It feels like a game I would get on steam.

It's an amazing game in all aspects. I LOVE being the villain, I LOVE the way the forth wall is broken, the set of powers you have as the vampire is really cool (even though I could not understand what the drainblood does haha), the pixel art is amazing and all the details really make the game polished and beautiful. Simply amazing!

Really fun! I had to give up on the 2nd round with the mage. I'm not great at bullet hell type games tho. It looks great! Reminds me of some of the old megaman games boss battles, which is a good thing. And I really like your take on the theme. Minor thing the default keyboard keys are a little awkward, I changed it to use the more common QER for stuff beside WASD. But it's really nice that you let us set keybinds so that I could do that. Lovelove the art style

Developer

Hi! Thank you so much for the comment!


If you'd like to finish the entire experience, we have accessibility options available in the main menu options :D

Regarding the controls, I had tried both 1, 2, and 3, and Q, E, R, but playtesting friends told me z, x, c was better when playing with arrow keys haha. I took their feedback. I'll make sure to drain their blood and hide their bodies :D

Submitted(+1)

Oh that's awesome! I was glad to be able to get to the end. And it was great I could just pick up where I left off. Love how you ended it, very cool! BAM it's over!

Hahaha yes punish the friend testers LOL
