5 stars for presentation. I love how the stamina bars are displayed on the character. Don't worry about the difficulty. I think it's perfectly fine to have an easy game for the sake of presentation. You can balance the final release after the jam all you want. Btw, do the enemies need one or two hits to be taken down? I couldn't make out if they had more health or if I was just missing shots.

Check out our game if you get the chance. :)

Thanks for playing. Yes, I plan to adjust the difficult in the future, just wished I had it better balanced for the reviews, but it's a jam and these things happen.

The stamina bars on the character were the first idea, because they allow the player to look only at the character and the enemies, but came really late in development (like 4 hours before the end of the jam). Before that, the stamina bars were displayed at the sides of the screen, which was really not good.

Different enemies take  different amounts of hits to kill. The triangles and squares take 2, the pentagons take 3. The plan was to give better feedback to the player when hitting and killing enemies, but this also wasn't completed in time, so this feature is missing.

Elegant concept and UI! I agree with some others that the difficulty somewhat prevents it from being showcased to its potential. I actually played through it on 2x game speed and enjoyed it a lot!

Thank you! I agree, I almost ran out of time, so the levels are not properly balanced.
