I LOVE THE VISUALS SO MUCH!!! Its absolutely phenomenal and very cutesy! Audio is top notch! It just felt really repetetive mid fight but thats my only complaint. Everything else 10/10!!!
Thank you very much! Unfortunately, the time limit can only demand so much, so trade-offs were made. Adding more gameplay variety = more art and animation work. Good luck if you make it to the 2nd phase.
Yes, after you defeat the dog (first time), the game enters a short cutscene and he goes into his second phase (and hp bar refills). During that phase, his attack patterns become faster, and he gains two extra attack moves.
