art, gameplay. all perfect, smooth beautiful. the game is great fun, but please let the music keep going after dying, i heard that intro so many damn times.

Submitted

I love everything about it except for the noise that plays everytime I die. And I died a lot. Good game though

Submitted

The platforming was more different than the parrying. Great game!

Submitted

Really nice game. I liked the artstyle. The flute that played everytime after respawning was a bit annoying tho.

Submitted

Pretty smart concept. Took me a while to get how to jump over spikes! Great game!

Submitted

I raged quited xD Thanks for the game ;D

Amazing. The art, the style, the music, the gameplay. I'm not very good at platformers so I struggled (especially on the last level), but it made it all the more satisfying to beat. That music change to include the shamisen as you ascended the last level was sick. And landing multiple of those ground spike parries in a row was very satisfying. I enjoyed playing a lot!

Submitted

You stole my idea! (kidding) For real though great work! It's a lot of fun, well balanced, and looks great. The art style and especially the parallax background with the reflection are *chef's kiss*. Well done!

Submitted

The game is fun and the sprites are well done, but the music gets obnoxious fast with how quickly you can die and restart and the loop is rough.

Submitted

Really fun idea! It took me a bit to figure out I could parry downwards.

My only complaint would be the choice of buttons for the controls being a bit tricky, having a key that could parry in addition to the mouse would've been handy.

actually really fun love the art, parrying was so fun

Submitted

Sick game, was very fun once I got used to the downward parry on spikes. My main feedback would be to make the jumps a bit more lenient (probably through coyote time) so it's easier for the player to focus on what makes the game cool (the parrying/bouncing mechanics)

Submitted

Fun time, parrying the spikes reminded me of Hollow Knight. Liked the art style

Submitted

Cool concept and art style but I found game a little bit too difficult. Might be cause I'm bad at platformers :)

Submitted

Game loop and visuals are highly polished. The gameplay itself is rather difficult and could likely use some larger platforms and smaller gaps. Echoing several other comments from here, the repeated downward parrying from level 4 onward makes it difficult to progress in the game.

Submitted

Very pretty game and nice movement. Not so nice is the fact that I just got stuck in level 4. :(

You can parry downwards and move sideways at the same time

Submitted

Great artstyle and presentation! But I have to admit, I died way too many times by missing a jump, way more than the actual combat

Submitted

I love the concept for this game. Art and music are amazingly done. If only I wasn't garbage at platformers... 

Submitted

do you think the samurai needs glasses after all those glints? I liked it, was fun.
