I struggled with this. While the shooting feels great, the art is badass, and the platforming and speed are slick, combining the difficultly of the platforming and the shooting made this a challenge. I think checkpoints would alleviate some of the struggle without diminishing the gameplay. Would be fun to grind out and master, definitely feels powerful!

Pretty tough, but it was fun experimenting with all of the different movement options! One thing I would do, if you interested in updating the game after the jam, would be to tighten the platforming a bit, such as giving the player a bit more gravity and/or more directional boosts in speed. For mechanics like wall running, I think this could help make the movement more snappy, for a lack of a better word. Other than that, there’s some cool platforming ideas here!
This is a really interesting idea for a power mechanic, and I love that you can use it for both movement and combat. There's a bit of jank involved in various mechanics, but the game comes through as pretty fun, so nice work! I'd love to see a version of this that's more fleshed out.
i tried hard but im just not patient enough to beat this game, wish i had more than 1 mistake allowed (that being 1 hit only). Solid gameplay, wish it wasnt so spacy and slow (im ultrakill pilled), go easier with the psx shader next time, at least with the texture warp, definitely the worst part of that shader and it HAS to go from psx lovers (im one). Could probably make more use out of the wall run mechanic, it felt pretty fun! Overall solid, some fine tuning is needed though. Good luck!
this is freaky cool and epic and if I was good sick cause this def has tech. Really like the whole music and the art. The textures are goofy when coming up close to them but I think that it gives off an interesting feel.
Cool looking game with lots of attitude! The music is fire and the revolver feels powerful. I didn't reach the end though. Walked throught the castle doors and got instantly smacked in the face by a giant monster. The game is really punishing and I think the player could use more hitpoints and health pickups. Overall really fun experience.
Liked the music and the PS1/2 style visuals.
I also had difficulty with the platforming. Could use some more instruction there.
Dude, this game was awesome! Took me forever to figure out what I was doing and all a lot of trial and error to figure out the mechanics, but I kept giving it a chance because the art and music was killer. And it was worth it! Super sick game, love the style, a ton of fun
