Tried the game! Well, the game was fun and well done. I would improve the swing ( a little more ranged attack ) and the stuff the AI sells are too price-y, killing a bit the strategy: “should I put the wall or not”, because it’s better or to save all the money or use them entirely protecting yourself for me. For the rest, you got a good idea for the limited time you had and surely a WOWIE! entry for me.

Pretty enjoyable combat game

• The shop not always being open is an interesting dynamic, but I'm always too low on money to buy anything
• The dashing is super fun, I like the animations on it too
• I wish the dash could also go diagonally
• The enemies lack variety, maybe I didn't live long enough to see them all though
• Good particles
• I liked how the sounds added power to your attacks

The game is pretty nice and polished, good work!
