Game's take on the theme
Form exchange - main mechanic involves the exchange between the sister and her deceased twin brother's form. Sanity Exchange - in order to deal damage you have to exchange your own sanity for it, to deal double damage you exchange constant sanity drain (brother's form).

I love the creepy vibes! Boss designs were so good!
This game looked great, I really enjoyed the art! Difficulty wise, I feel like it was on the easy side, but for a jam game, thats not necessarily a bad thing. Good job!
Woah, these visuals are awesome! I love the art style and boss designs.
yeah finnaly comleted your game!!! Again want to say, well done
Hey, kinda cool drawings there !
I find the bosses a bit too easy, but beside that, pretty cool game
I like the art and the pallets used are very fitting. Love the boss introductions and the game take.
Really cool looking art and great use of the exchange theme. I do feel like the sanity regain rate was high enough that taking damage/switching to BROTHER form wasn't as much of a risk as it should have been. Maybe having a health bar alongside the sanity meter could make the game more challenging.
I'm a sucker for great graphics. 5 stars.
The visuals in this game are super cool! I did feel like I could just spam in sister’s form for the first two bosses. Normally I don’t have a problem with games being easy, but this game was just far too easy. I think it has a lot of potential, and the difficulty just needs to be ramped up a bit.
Great game, lovely visuals,I Adore the page background, we have matching boss names as well, Great game overall.
Great concept and visuals, but I feel like the sanity mechanics aren't punishing enough. Still a great experience regardless!
Amazing pixel art!
This game looks absolute amazing. It does miss the gameplay part of gaming though. To me, there is currently no challenge in the game. I'd recommend checking out this video video link yayyyy to get an idea of how you can think of gameplay! I'd really love to see what you could create with some really good gameplay and this artstyle. Keep at it!
Good job, the game has a lot of mysteries to explore. Simple but interesting imagery The battle is easy to play, but don't be careless until you run out of sanity. I like the art style And the game art theme is also demon-themed, awesome!.
The mechanics are too simple and flat. The sanity is like health but with extremely fast regeneration. However, the visuals are amazing, maybe the best I have seen in this jam. Good job!
The visual are nice, the boss design looks really cool, and the music are nice too.
The contro and the gameplay are also interesting, I like the form change mechanics, I basically just used the brother to attack and the sister to regain sanity. Tho the bosses are a bit too easy, also not sure if is my problem but the sound are very quiet for some reason.
But still, nice game!
Stunning visuals, very well polished!!
Cool artstyle, but maybe the game could have went a little harder on the player. But I love the enemy designs the font and the overall vibe is quite nice.
Very cool enemy design and pallet choice, great game! Thanks for making this!
Awesome vibe and art! The BG music was really really quiet for me but I'm sure it adds the the atmosphere! Nice game with nice polish!!
