Very nice looking game, the hardest part is when you don't see the sword in the map and you have to look for it maybe in the level that you have only 2 chances, Adictable, congrats

Developer

Thanks!

Wow, Samurai topic is one of my favourite... nice atmoshpere you got there and good choice of art style,defently gonna check other games made by you. \I wonder how you made glitchi zoom out after death,feels wierd... 

Altho it's difficult, I enjoyed :D i could i complete only few levels , but doesn't matter...being Samurai is not easy...
Was it inspired by Katana ZERO?Afro Samurai? I felt the vibe 

Developer

hehe also Samurai fan here, zoom effect was made by lens distortion which yeah looks weird which is why i actually leaved it lol. Although difficulty is a part of atmosphere, i agree the game is not balanced well in case of it. And we weren't anyhow inspiring by Katana Zero, but yeah it has some vibes)

This was really great. I loved the concept and it's very clear you put a lot of work into this. The movement felt a little too unbalanced though, and as awesome as the visuals were, it was a little unclear at times whether I could jump to a position or not. I also did not like the fact that you would start from the beginning of the top row again if you reached the end of any row though I suppose it's more of a subjective thing. This is an awesome game with a great idea and execution

Developer(+1)

I also think we should have just moved the player to the start of the row, not the beginning. Anyway thanks for the feedback!

Hey another Samurai game!! This is super duper polished, I am surprised this was done in 72h and not a few months! Really nice movement, cool sprites, sick colors, lovely screen warping.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot!

Submitted(+2)

This game looks like I just bought it for real money. The movement is fluid, the colors are amazing, and in terms of difficulty, I am stunned as well. This is incredible.

Developer

Ah thanks a lot for these words! Really glad you liked it

The jump mechanic has an amazing game feel. it feels soo good to jump around and stick to the walls. But i must say its not the simplest of games and its not so easy to understand what should be done. The art is simple but interesting. Plz check out my game if u can ;)

Developer

Thanks for the kind feedback! You asked very nicely so I cant resist trying your game B)

Submitted(+3)

Stylish, fun, stylish, creative, stylish, original, and stylish! A great concept with excellent execution, with a high level of challenge. Did I also mention that it's stylish? <3

Thanks a lot for kind words! Our game is really hard, and I ’m really glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback! Your game is awesome too! Btw did I also mention our game is hard?

Submitted(+1)

It is hard, but the overall style had me want to keep going. I love it. :)

Developer(+1)

:D

THIS IS BONKERS! insane!
Also holy this is so damn hard
The game is extremely polished and it looks just amazing

But the controls are a bit hard. Cant believe you made this in 3 days

Absolute insanity

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the amazing feedback! Yep, it’s actually really punishing unfortunately. But I think that’s a good challenge ;)

Submitted(+2)

Really cool! I wish you could have the chance to play all of the levels because if you are good you only get to play a 1/5 of the game really cool!

Developer

Thanks a lot! I wish our game was also less hard and everybody could enjoy all the levels lmao. But it is what it is)

Submitted

ya, very good game!

Submitted(+1)

Insane game! Actually amazing!

Developer

:D

Insane game! Actually amazing!

WOOOOW !! You made this in 3 days ???? Guys, this is sick. if you just make the movement a bit more precise and easier to control, it can easily be a banger on steam or play store.

Developer

Heyy thanks a lot for the kind words! Yeah as you could notice the game is very very easy pfff. The controls indeed need fixes

Submitted(+2)

The visuals, color scheme and polish is simply amazing, it looks so professional. As others have said it's quite difficult, but really cool gameplay ideas! My only feedback is that the controls could be more accurate and "heavy", the acceleration of the character is hard to anticipate which makes it hard to control. Making the character slightly larger could help too, it kindof disappears at times.
Really impressive overall!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot of such a detailed feedback! Indeed the controls are sort of too fast, blends with the level a bit( Anyway glad you liked it!

Submitted(+2)

The hard part seems to be getting to the sword... The controls are so punishing, and the timer! I liked how the timer makes the player run to the shadow, though.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yes that was the main idea, the game is quite punishing but the main goal is to optimize your run

Submitted(+2)

Insane amounts of polish and a beautiful world. Controls weirdly, though.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Sorry if the controls seem weird, should have made them a bit more sensible and heavy I think

Submitted(+2)

This game is so painfully hard, but it's goddang beautiful and the topic is perfect, it's incredible. This feels real professional, if y'all aren't proud of yourselves, you better be cause this is insane dudes. Absolutely beautiful the whole way around <3

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot!!! Yo the game is really hard I see, sorry guys

Submitted(+1)

Hey it's alright! I'm someone who loves dark souls and bloodborne, just haven't done a high skill ceiling 2d game in a long time.

Developer

lmao thanks for the kind words!

Submitted(+1)

The game is freaking harsh, really really punishing. But other than that, the game is AWESOME. The art is great, the gameplay is smooth and fun, sounds and music are really fitting, and the general idea is executed really well. Amazing game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yep, the game is indeed quite punishing! But lets say its the challenge B)

This looks incredible. Love the idea. Did find that the timer made it a little bit too punishing.

Developer

Yep. The game is brutal.  We should regret but... The more you die the more you learn! Thanks for the feedback)
