How does your game tie into the theme?
You are trying to stop the ritual of a rival cult. There were planned features to perform your own rituals, but sadly, there was no time left.

Game has a great feel, but dang it's hard! I liked the indicator arrows on the player and enemies, did wonders in helping with aiming the melee attack. Fun game!
Very fast. Holy I way to boomer to handle so much speed ^^. Very good job anyway, maybe with a more manageable speed I would have enjoyed it even more :)
This is the 2d version of dark souls lol
Well... that was brutal... I really wanted to beat this (now that I think about it I don't even know if there is a win condition), but after trying for way too long, I could not.
So here's some ideas to help make it less painful:
- Add health
- Make enemy bullets slower
- Make enemies not notice you as quickly
- Add randomness to the enemy's aim
- More range with melee attack
- Add some sort of warning before enemies shoot
Despite how difficult it is, I still enjoyed playing it (which is why I played it for so long)! So congrats on submitting your first jam game!
The movement was initially fast, but once I got used to it, it was fine. The game was deadly hard, but I completely understand. I don't know how many games I've made, not knowing how hard it would be for others. I like that you can melee as well as shoot. Nice job, especially for a first jam game!

That was tough, but I had fun. I like how the lanterns slow you down and we have the ability to shoot to disable them. Nice job!
fun challenging game. I really liked the art for the main character.
Great art and cool background music. It's a really hard game: a suggestion is to add a "health" to the player, instead of a one-shot kill. I think it would improve a lot with this small change.
Anyway good job!
