I think the base idea is solid, and I like that you spun the out of control theme as something positive here (at least that’s what the mechanic feels like). But I feel the game takes too much time to ramp up to a state where that mechanic shines! Especially for a game jam, make sure people have the “ahhh, I get it!” moment early on! More enemies at the start (and more that group up) would do wonders here :)

Keep up the great work!

Hi! Thanks for the feedback! At first I felt that the players might feel overwhelmed if more enemies will appear right at the start. Especially with the kinda wonky controls. Looks like I held them back too much huh? Thanks for trying this out!

Love the idea of losing control of the character but found that he's a little OP if you just sit back and wait for him to rage out to kill the enemies. Might be good to add a system where he loses health when he rages and you need to kill enemies in between to keep him alive.

Hi! Thank you very much for your feedback. We totally appreciate it. We actually had this idea that the character "bleeds" out health while walking in rage mode, then recovering health based on the number of enemies hit by the rage attack.  Sadly, it never got in the game.  Thanks for trying this out!
