Game's Take on the Theme
I used the theme in a more thematic way rather than a gameplay one. Spinning sawblades are the attack mechanic as well as part of the title the main character wants. Spinning also relates to the games lore(which is unlocked upon beating it) as becoming the sawking is a never ending cycle.
Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?
Yes, only one music track in the game was made prior to the jam. All of the art was made during the jam.

Fun short boss rush game! This could be better if I could throw sawblades at any direction, or 8 directions at least.
Did complete the game and read the lore.
Couldn't reach the Saw King status lol, but cool game, love the graphic style XD
I had a really good time with the game! The controls are easy to pick up and understand. I really loved the more gritty and gruesome style you went for and the music was really good and it the ambience well! Also the sudden phase change with the second boss really took me off guard and made me panic slightly lol.
I did really wish the attack launched faster, I had a hard time trying to telegraph the hits with the third boss second phase, but overall I really good experience!
Hey There!
Whenever I have time, I go through the lesser-rated games list, and that's where I found your project - I just rated it! ;)
If I may kindly ask, would you take a look at my project as well? If so, Thank You in advance! (Here's an important devlog info for it!)
Wishing you all the best!
I like how you use bullets and different type of attacks from boss, I also made something similar in my game submitted here, have a look if you wish. I rate visuals and mechanics over the rest but I like everything really, I hope you can work more on this after jam is over
