A nice short and simple game! I can see this concept being expanded a ton to include new playable characters and enemies. The fight got a bit stale at the end once I got my technique down, but I still had a fun time.

nice fun simple game great job! =) I would have liked to be able to attack in different directions and had some feedback when attacking but great job!

Buen juego, veo el tema referenciado en ser el boss. Por darle una mejora al juego seria la necesidad de un feedback en los golpes ademas del sonoro y poder atacar en otras direcciones.

nice concept

It would have been fun to allow the player to rotate. Now I found myself mostly just running in circles.

Definitely a fun concept though, with some work this could be quite interesting.

Definitely a fun short experiment that can be expanded on. I can imagine a range of heroes or parties and upgrades/alternative bosses to play as. At the moment, it's a little too slow for me. Once you figure out a strafing technique, it just takes forever to do it and I just sat there repeating the same actions over and over. Maybe shorter health bars would help that problem, though obviously the best solution is more variety in gameplay. 

All in all, a well-presented jam game.
