Hey There! :)

Great Game! Love your visuals! Blurry bg, etc... Sprites are cool! The cover image... Rated! ;)

Thank you if you visit and rate mine as well! 

 All the best!

Really well made. Visuals may be rough, but gameplay sells it. You can feel every projectile hitting the floor, because of good sfx and camera shaking. Just upgrade the artstyle and game will be great.

Thanks for the feedback!

Game has a solid start but rough around a lot of edges.

The presentation is a good start with music being a particular highlight. The art is but upon playing, lacks consistency, direction and doesn't really support gameplay elements.

Going in blind, I was confused why I wasn't able to deal damage to the boss, I think there needs to be more feedback to make that abundantly clear. After figuring out parrying is the only way to deal damage, the game is essentially a waiting game, which can be quite dull.

The player should at least still be able to deal damage to the boss directly to feel satisfying.

Hey Steventus, thanks for taking the time with the feedback! 

There was so much we wish we could add but integration was only done 10 hrs into the submission. The game as is unfinished

Regarding the direct hit issue, it was unfortunately a bug that only happens on the build version. We only noticed hours passed the submissions. We did fix it on different post from the submission (https://arcgamesstudio.itch.io/viator-direct-hit-can-damage

Really liked how the aesthetic and feel came together in your game. Also really enjoyed how figuring out the boss patterns made each subsequent playthrough like a speed run. Well done ARC team! =)

I really the love approach you went for. There's definitely a learning curve here. Good game at the core, but needs a lot more work to take it to the next level.

Artwork is superb, and I like how the boss can only be damaged by parrying/deflecting. I can tell it's still a work in progress, but looking forward to where you can bring this! Well done!
