Such a cool game! I really enjoyed my time up until the end of the game. I felt the challenge never got too hard, nor too easy. The graphics style is also so nice to look at. All in all, I feel this is generally a good game. A shame it isn't longer. The only problem I noticed is I think at some point the enemy AI would just stop, I saw many cubes just happily standing there, waiting to be slain. However, it wasn't much of an issue. Good job on the game!

Thanks, and that's a pretty good catch! While playing the game, I felt like enemies were pursuing the player too much, making it difficult to land hits since everything was clumped up and right in your face. A last minute change was to make enemies pick a random point in their vicinity after attacking, and move to it before hunting you again. I didn't have time to playtest the change in more complex levels, so as it turns out, enemies can also pick targets which they'll never reach, and get stuck hugging a wall until their demise.
