Wow, really interesting, but enemy spawn rate too high.

Using the swords felt amazing, but the enemies spawned wayyy too quickly.

Bot.connectDidn't play for very long but seems like a cool idea. I couldn't really get into it with the music being quite repetitive but I liked the art style and the feeling of moving the sword felt good.

The Wizard and The FireflyVery well done mechanic! I found myself sometimes scrambling through enemies to retrieve swords, which was cool. Visuals and Audio are great! Has some cool elements where leaving a sword behind can also help by creating a block, lots of potential here!

Chain FuryHaving a tethered weapon or tool is used often in the jam, but in this jam, it's used very well! The weapons don't seem to have any indication to whether or not they will detach, making it frustrating when you lost connection to your swords. The player feels slow, too. But overall, good game!

Cornered StoneGood amount of polish, game looked good and played well!
I got what you were going for with the swords being disconnected if a line touches a wall or enemy! Definitely was important to make sure you didn't put yourself in a bad spot by losing both your swords.
I immediately want the different colored swords to do different things. Orange burns, blue freezes. Some enemies can only be affected by one sword but not the other. Swords normally shoot forward when you click, but you do a spin attack instead when you click both at the same time. Bounce one sword off the other. Things like that!
But good game! I enjoyed it!

Around a WorldNice visuals and gameplay, but sometimes character can move outside of camera and enemies just destroy him. Great game overall!

Cubed TogetherThis is a kind of game that I might actually play outside of a game jam. Very fun!

Everything is ConnectedWell made game, all 5's pretty satisfying. But key for summoning the swords back would be nice :P

Death To WizardsGreat game. The Sword mechanic is great and the controls feel good :)

Intergalactic Towing ServiceNice music and cool presentation!
I am now sure how the link work though. Holding down the mouse makes me control it until I lose the sword. Is this what the link does?

The Street Gang Tether IncidentCute artstyle, really love the mechanic that you can lose your sword(s)!
It would be nice to know your highscore so we can beat it :D
