Some very cool arcade action here. It manages to feel both very old-school but also fresh.
Once I realized that my character wraps around the screen but the sword does not.. that really opened up some tactical possibilities. :)
The music sets the right tone. The backgrounds look great--suggestive of 1980s arcade cabinets, and yet snazzier. I also think the visual effect when the main character dies is weird, psychedelic, and hypnotic.
I'm not so certain about the appearance of the enemies--it looks like Blue Man Group did too many pullups. :)
