I like the work you made with the dialogue and actually making a little story behind the game, adds a lot! Well done.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
It centers around the premise of a sleep paralysis demon who causes Chaos is terrorizing a man. Where the visuals, and symbolism heavily explore Chaos. Such as it suggesting that Chaos is; self destructive, it hurts your mental health, and that unity helps clear Chaos.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All code, as well as assets were made from scratch. However music was taken from freesoundfx.org, as well as royaltyFreeMusicArchives.

Chaos ControlHey, i have some feedback for your game:
1. I really like the story, and i like the gameplay too, but they don't clearly fit together.
2. The music is really cool, but the sound is not that good.
3. The big enemies are way too strong which makes the game too difficult for me to beat.
4. Add some feedback for hitting enemies like particles or a sound.
I hoped the feedback helped you and it would be nice if you could check out my submission too. Thanks! :)

ActirumiaThanks so much for taking the time to give me feedback, I really love when people go the extra mile! 📝 ✍️
Yeah for sure I should have made them work together a bit more.
I will be sure to play test and add user feedback in future jams! I never considered it really XD
Funny story though, the original idea was that you were going to fight the God Chaos from Greek myth, but my artist was really behind so that was going to be impossible. So 6 hours before submission we totally remade the theme so we only had to use 1 sprite, he quickly drew up some backgrounds, I rushed for music and by some miracle we were able to submit XD. The sleep paralysis demon was the only way having the same retextured character would make sense.
Again thanks so much for the feedback,

Very cool and chaotic game. I really liked the sound design. The story is short but intriguing. Enemies are tough enough for some cool combat. The art style is simple yet elegant. Overall great job!
If you have a minute, please check my game too :)

ONE WAY TRAINHeyo~
I had a lot of fun playing this game! I thought the concept of fighting your sleep paralysis demon was really cool.
One suggestion I have would be to really lean into the sleep paralysis monster theme, when I think about the theme I'm imagining more shadowy, almost human kind of beings. I thought the spears were a lot of fun but I didn't really understand how they fit into the theme of a sleep paralysis monster.
Like I said, I thought that the combat and the mechanics were really fun. I think you made a really cool game, great job!

those big guys who know to use a spear are so OP, one shot and u are done, a miss could launch the spear in the middle of the eyes of the enemies, and a couple more enemies will bring more chaos

Trippin PugThe game is really fun, this is the first time I have enjoyed a top down game like this, mainly because I really wanted to complete it. The into was really sweet and the ending was also worth it (it was a hug after all). The BGM was really well chosen.
Only thing that would take this game to another level would be some player feedback, blood particles or camera shake. Because sometimes I couldnt understand if I had dealt damage to the enemies.
Other than that its a solid game for a gamejam :D

Agent Of ChaosIt's really fun. The audio and graphics are super cool. Though that red progress bar ugly and I don't know why it bothers me so much. It's super fun.

Clone ChaosGood game, I really liked the art and dialogue. I had plenty of fun making up voices for the characters. :)

School ChaosPretty good game! The spear combat was pretty reliable, which is hard to pull of for a jam game, so good job! Feel like this can be expanded with more waves (maybe as different nights or something). One suggestion I have is some visual feedback when I hit an enemy, like them glowing a different color for a quick second or them recoiling back or something.
