It was hard playing on my laptop's touchpad (don't ask why) but I still had fun playing it. Amazing idea for controls.
I was skeptical about the controls at first, but then I couldn't stop playing. Well done!
Thanks you very much! ^^
I liked it! Took some time to get used too but still was fun!
Thanks!
I quite liked the control scheme, it was unconventional but worked very well with the flow of the gameplay. Also really appreciated the tutorial, good job!
I have to thank for the host of the jam! ^^ It was so much fun!
the mouse controls were super duper unconventional, nice work there.
this game is HARD
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! ^^

Overall, a pretty charming and satisfying experience!
Thank you very much! I really happy that you noticed these things! Yeah, I know the controls did'n work too well, but I wanted to try it. What is better for an expirement than a game jam?
Agreed. It's always best to try things even if it doesn't always work really well
Good game! great job!
Thanks!
The art is good and reminds me of BlackThornProd. The audio is passable, and the mechanics are great. The soul fight phase is a little too easy, but it was really fun. The controls were really confusing at first, but after a while, it was really fun controls. Great game!
Your observations are great! I inspired a lot from Blackthornproud. I didn't want to make a hard game, just to enjoy people. Thanks for playing!
I liked the unique controls they are definitely Unconventional!
Also the music was great.
Good job!
Thanks a lot! ^^
that was fun! The movements are a great idea
I'm glad you enjoyed it! ^^
good art and unique controls.
nice game.
I'm glad you liked it!
Music sounded like a dark souls boss battle - nice work!
^^
The controls took a bit of getting used to, but I feel that it really came together in the end. Great game!
Thanks!
Man, the control scheme is really unique and makes this game standout. This is lots of fun. Nice work.
Thanks, bro! ^^ These words are too kind!
The controls were really unconventional! not sure why more games don't use the mouse wheel for things besides zooming -it was really fun to move like that! :D Art was great too -nice job!! :D
Thanks a lot! It was a bit dangerous to put the control on the mouse scroll, because every mouse scroll is different. If someone would make movement with the mouse scroll, a sensitivity bar is necessary. But I don't think in this jam it will be a problem, but let me know if someone's mouse wheel is too fast or slow for my game! ^^
Really unusual way of controlling, I love it. Sometimes I even forget how to click left and right mouse to move, just scroll out of habit.
Thanks! It is great to hear that. I was afraid that the controls are too weird to actually enjoy the game.
wow, i liked it, a very good game, with an creative use of the theme
Thanks, bro! ^^
this was a really fun game. Partials made it really satisfying and something about the art just felt right.
Thanks a lot! These words feels very great! ^^
definitely fits the theme! Control took a while to get used to, especially once shooting was introduced. I really like the background music and the overall game mechanics are well done! Would be cool to see some more animations in the future! Good work!
I'd appreciate if you could play/rate my game as well! :)
I'm glad you liked it! ^^ I didn't had time to make animations, but I make some in the post-jam update! Thanks for the feedback!
