Nice game! I was a bit confused at first as to how the controls worked but eventually I figured it out.
The fighting felt good. Sounds were satisfying, visuals were neat and the numbers showing up surprisingly added a lot to the experience imo. It wouldve been interesting if attacking was done whenever you pressed the button rather than just holding it, but it didnt hinder the experience that much.
The story was good too! Simple but effective. The ending was bittersweet, which really tied the whole thing together. Good job overall :D
