Really cool visual and gameplay! I had a lot of fun playing this game and I think its got the bones of a really awesome rhythm based fighter game which I personally have never seen/played one before! I can see it getting really flow statey and fast as players get used to hitting the beats. Very well done on the jam!
I think removing the cooldown but speeding up the wheel, maybe adding in some negative effects, to make it more chaotic and skill based would be really cool.

Thank you :) we had a huge vision for more complicated and in-depth mechanics but it was too much to do in a short amount of time and too complicated for the average player without making some sort of good tutorial/natural guide. We originally had the basic wheel attack be a failed attack but we thought the low damage and cooldown was enough punishment especially considering they don't get a parry.
What might be a neat idea is having 1-2 negative effects that can be exchanged for better stuff via perks :)
