Really cool art style and I loved the animations! I'm not sure how much the game tied into the "From the Dead" theme, aside from the fact that you die... a lot 😅. I liked the challenge though, and the game felt really well made. My only criticism would be the controls, which were a bit frustrating. I actually had to remap the keys using my keyboard settings to play properly.
Great job overall!

Thank you very much for playing and your comment! Appreciated and grateful, that you liked it.
The theme actually didn't unfold. I had to cut the story short because I ran out of time.
The Ferryman doesn't let you pass without a taler. Or if you beat him. If you don't, he'll send you back alive and says something like: "Go and get me my taler, then we can talk." A few moments later the player should respawn and responds a few jokes like, "well, I didn't see this bus coming, I guess! Thanks for letting me suffer a lot more!" And repeat with other stupid jokes.
At least there are some undead foes which are summoned from the dead.. :)
Mind you if I ask, what was the challenge with the controls?
