Super cool idea and very polished presentation for a jam entry.
I wish the combat timing windows was a little more obvious/had more grace though, it was a little tricky trying to get combos off and not being fully sure what/why they had failed (I think just timing with the attacks triggering before I finished the full input, and then waiting for the activation/cooldown). I loved the combo system but it was a little tricky to use because of this while also trying to keep an eye on the quite subtle parry indicators, eventually my most effective strategy ending up being just spamming the attack keys while watching the parry indicators instead of trying to do specific combos. This worked but I would love to be more deliberate with the attacks. Perhaps some time slow would work and could be visually fun. Or maybe I just need more practice!
Also wasn't sure how to add a name to the leaderboard, it didn't seem to ask but I may have just missed it.
Overall a fantastic jam entry and probably my favourite so far. Fantastic job, take all of my stars!
