Very cool concept and great execution! I like the fact that you're essentially shooting enemies with your own HP bar, and that it is made very obvious through the visuals.
Small improvement ideas:
The healing animation scared me every time since it looks as if I'm taking critical damage.
The amount of HP we have to shoot out seems too high. It would have been nice to make picking up the blood stains more of a challenge, since now it doesn't really matter if you pick them up on almost full health or not.
The enemies are as smart as cucumbers. For me most of the gameplay was waiting for them to get stuck in the hallway.
Still, great job in this limited time frame!

Great job guys! Love the concept, it'd be awesome to see it explored further, perhaps different types of attacks or abilities that cost blood, one small addition that'd make the game feel a lot better would be to change it so you can hold down the mouse button to fire blood rather than have to click for every drop.
