Amazing Visuals! Well Done!
Fun game. Theme interpretation is really good.
Just a small gripe with the middle boss, he spawns green plants and it's a bit hard too see them since the level already has some green moss, so I was confused why I was taking damage.
pretty neat one ! good job!
Five stars for this gem ! Congrat.
The art is really good. This game has really good music too. Your take on the theme results in some very interesting gameplay. Good Job.
Your game sounds exciting. There are very detailed images, which I like.
Wow! The visuals are great, and gameplay is satisfying. It's kinda hard to beat but once I got hang of it I somehow manage to survive longer XD
I think this is the best looking that i've played so far, amazing job! The boss designs and the mechanics were all very cool, though the bosses were quite hard I was only able to beat the right one all the way through, felt like alot of the attacks came from nowhere while I was just trying to get some stabs in. Regardless the game is superbly polished, amazing submission.
The art and art style are incredible, really great-looking game. The game felt quite difficult, and it felt like some of the attacks for some bosses came out with little-to-no ‘tell’ or warning, which made it tough.
I like the core mechanic of exchanging damage for healing and vice versa a lot. Nice job!
Thank you! Your game is one of my fav so far!!!
Really good job, The bosses were difficult, but nothing that couldn't be beaten after several attempts and the mechanic of exchanging the life is very creative.
Love the art direction on this. Good mechanic for theme too.
Great art and atmosphere! I really loved the lightning. The exchange mechanic is great too, amazing job creating a beautiful game.
Got through two bosses, definitely after many attempts. I think your artwork is incredible! There's a clear and engaging theme to each boss as well. Really enjoyed playing.
Really polished and the art was insanely good. The overall atmosphere was put together so well. The bosses were very tough and sometimes it was difficult to see what was going on especially in the Oracle fight with the vines.
Yeap! We would work more on telegraphing attacks after the jam! Thank u! Glad u like it!
really awesome game but bosses move could be telegraphed better.
The best art style I've seen yet, really well made, the whole setting is great.
The boss's attacks could be telegraphed better as when I'm close It's really hard to see what attack they are using. Theme's integration is well done and creative, good job.
Very cool art style and atmosphere. Love the whole aesthetic. Nice work.
Thank u!
I like the art style, and your take on the theme is really creative
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Wonderfully made! Great aesthetic and designs. feels really polished all around. The central mechanic feels good and balances well with the boss difficulty. I was healing more than i was increasing damage usually. Some attacks happen fast relative to their telegraphs but it’s not an issue, just difficult. Pause menu buttons dont seem to work in the tutorial area, but the resets work fine after death, as I found out.
Thanks! Yeap! I'm aware of this bug already. Glad you like it!
Game seems really cool, the boss fights spit an error out at me and soft locks the game, I will come back and try the PC build later. I love the vibe you are going for!
Thank you! Yeap, there is a bug for a web version so I disable it! PC build is working fine! Please give it a try!
