this game kinda puts you in flow mode,
once you deflect an attack, you enter a flow mode to deflect the next one, just like a rhythem
if you missup one deflect, you will probably not deflect the next one,
it's weird to describe but the enemy patterns really puts you in such a situation, and i gotta be honest in here, it was awesome!
from art to mechanics, nothing is broken or unbalanced, the only one down point is the when you die there is no sound effect, am pretty sure the death screen is inspired by sekiro, which is pretty cool, but with a sound effect it can feel much stronger and better.
overall great game, great mechanics, great audio, great art,
nothing should hold you from playing this game, so go play it.
