Great art and audio, and the gameplay itself is also quite fun!
Some people are saying the controls are weird but it's pretty great for a jam game, I still think this game is awesome!
Good job guys!

Hey, we made a GMTK game too. Check it out!
Great game! Awesome and unique idea.
A very nice take on the theme overall, with a very pleasant artstyle to match! I will say, however, that I don't know how I feel about the game being so open ended. Finally, I personally found that being able to destroy enemies by just hitting them with the blunt side of the sword was a bit counter intuitive, but this may just boil down to personal taste.
I really liked the visual style and the mood of the game. I wish there were more to do in the game than just swinging around. But still I liked the idea and found it really funny. Thank you for this game!
A really cool idea. The only problem was that it got old defending the body after a while. Also I found you could just cheese it by getting in a certain spot and swinging the mouse around in circles.
It would have been really cool if you (the arm) had to go on a quest to deliver an important scroll to the king, but the monsters are trying to stop you. Your body had failed, but the quest is too important to give up.
In other things, the art was really good.
The most unique gameplay i've seen so far. Great job.
This game is absolute genious. It takes the "only one" concept perfectly and is surprisingly beautiful. Loved the atmosphere. Congratulations on the amazing job!
Very unique and visually impressive! It was easy to trick the game by just spinning next to the body, but very fun nonetheless.
A unique control method and fun to play :)
Artdirection is outstanding, but gameplay is a bit lackluster. You dont really need to move once you reach the body (whirlwind of death seems to be the dominant strategy :D)
Lol, brilliant idea. Very original. Perhaps the way the theme comes through is bit weak, but it makes for a fun game!
The grim atmosphere in this game is breathtaking. My high score is 410 but honestly I had to stop because my wrist started to hurt. I mainly move towards the body then stay there for the whole game while rotating all the time. This strategy seems to do the trick but I don't know if the game gets harder after some time. Overall, It was a great experience.
This game is magic. You should be so proud. Amazing execution on a fantastic idea.
I found trying to navigate around the body a bit finicky, but otherwise it was excellent
Great game and the art is fantastic, really cool how the motions of your arm IRL fit the arm ingame haha.
The best game in the jam i've seen so far!
This game gives me scary and funny vibes at the same time. I loved this game its a great concept very creative.
The art is outstanding. It's always a great idea to have a really small but polished scene. The movement is great, I love the crawling.
Sometimes the enemies were spawning on the corpse, making it feel a bit unfair.
Great Job !
This is amazing; If added some more enemies, I'd pay to play this
looks nice, plays nice. but you can just keep dragging the mouse in circles to go on forever. so that gets boring after a while
