Holy shit. by far the best entry i played yet. gorgeous sprites, the music creates the perfect mood, and the gameplay is unique and has quite some content.

The only things i can criticise is for one the lack of a tutorial / a simple "controls" page. I didn't know you could kill enemies until i was like 10 minutes into the game :D.

The other thing thats slightly annoying imo is that the movement feels too slow. it could be all around a little snappier. A little more responsive.
All around a well polished and rounded game! Congratz!

Wow, thanks man! I agree a tutorial was needed and I tried to cover the basics on the game page. I wish the basics would show up on the submission page too, or it can and I dunno what I'm doing :P l

I completely agree with the movement speeds aswell. My daughter kept telling me to slow it down (especially the soul flare you shoot), so I cut it off where the character was just slightly faster than the walking enemies. But again, thanks for the feedback!
