Really cool game! I didn't realize I could keep the head out at first and then bring it back at will, and that was a game changer! Super fast paced, maybe too fast for my taste, but really fun!

Pale Faced Lightningwhile it feels a bit barren, i really like how both the movement and attack feel like. I could imagine a good full game being based on this mechanic!

Minotaur 2Like other have pointed out, the random enemy spawning causes some unfair feeling deaths. Other than this the game feels pretty nice and the attack mechanic is interesting.

Pumpkin PlunderersI'm a big fan of the attack mechanic - it was deceptively versatile for a one-button attack. My main criticism is the enemies being able to spawn right next to the player without warning felt a bit unfair, which when combined with the one hit death was the cause of most of my game overs. Nice and crisp visuals and overall satisfying to play - good job!

FruithillityNice game ! Really like the attack system with the head, and graphics are simple but effective,
Well done !

Sisyphus and the PumpkinThis was cool, reminded me the God of War axe mechanic :)
One feedback would be that maybe insta-death is a bit harsh for game this fast.
Keep up the good work!
