Congrats on submitting!

I liked the fact you didn't get hit straight away, this way you can rally up a couple demons and spray them all at once.

I really like the water effect, maybe getting feedback would be nice too, it was a bit hard to see when you were hit

Interesting take on the ritual theme, I was unsure how to give the patients the blood but I saw  you replied to someone so i figured out how, goodjob!

Hey so weirdly this reminds me of a serious game I made for a hospital about infection control training! The original idea was to have patients turn into zombies if you didn't follow infection control procedures! But a boring nurse at the hospital vetoed that idea!

Some good setup work on the graphics and level design, but the actual gameplay is confusing, can't figure out how to attack and the lack of sound is a shame.

Neat concept and decent submission for a first jam. 

The bat/demons spawn way too quickly and have too large of a range. You just stand in the hallway and constantly fight them, basically. The combat doesn't seem fluid/controllable enough to deal damage without getting hit. I think this could be fixed by just making the holy water's range a bit better, or leaving a damaging area on the ground afterwards. 

It also seems a bit odd to have patients reappearing in beds occasionally, but it is a jam and I get it - you just sort of stick with whatever the first idea is.

Well executed and good idea! Keep up the good work!

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but the instructions don't mention needing to press a key to give people in bed the demon blood. But walking to them does nothing. :(
