fun game! i like the idea of exchanging abilities, and leveling up your current abilities is a cool idea!
as other people said, the hitboxes were very confusing, damaging enemies especially felt pretty inconsistent, but i think i figured out that you have to click the enemy while youre close enough to them?
i really like the art, but i think the game is missing some sound effects
getting to the bosses felt a bit too long, but i like the concepts for the bosses. i couldnt beat the first one because it just constantly spawns way too many enemies, i beat the second boss, but after the gate i opened up and i tried to leave, the game just froze and i stopped playing there.
overall, the game feels a bit unfinished, but i really liked it!

Weapon Exchange BoxNice style. Cool leveling up by killing enemies. There are not enough clearer hit boxes for enemies and characters. During the battle with the first boss, my computer froze.

E/S/C: DUST, RUST AND DEATH DEMOI really enjoyed the art in this game! The ability to exchange skills was also a good take on the theme. I had some difficulties when fighting because of the hitboxes. I also thought the timer was too large on the screen and it ended up blocking some parts of the game.

Retail TherapyThe idea was great, art was nice, but it was very confusing to play. Hitboxes were bugged, and I got a glitched game over screen twice.

Retail TherapyGood art indeed, for me what the game lacks is a better way to identify hitboxes, mainly for the players attacks (and maybe add a visual weapon slash with a bit of reach as I made in my entry :wink:)

AX3L (ULTRAKILL/DOOM alike)Thanks for kind words about the graphics! ❤️ The game contains two bosses and three levels with level selector at start. Due to time limit and my laziness I coded the levels the way that you can start from any point in the story you want and after you beat that level you dont go to the level selector but instead to the next level… Thanks for your feedback! Now I know what to take into account when designing level transition lol
