Nice little fighting game. I like that dashing is used instead of jumping to freely move around. Music getting interrupted after getting hit feels a bit strange, but okay. I love the enemy design, it feels surreal. :) 

Great work! :)

Thanks for the feedback <3 Regarding the music: the effect I would love to achieve was a dampened one from the ScourgeBringer game. But what I implemented here was far from my inspiration in the music area :)

Thank you for playing!

This is really neat and super chuffed to see your own engine up and running!

I agree with the tutorial not really helping in up-down dash/attacks and the floaty nature of spam attack but you can figure those out quite fast on your own! Enemies feel varied and complimenting each other, altough I’m not the biggest fan of the multiple cross shooting enemies spawning on top of each other.

Otherwise really solid entry both sound design and graphical wise! Well done!

Thank you for playing and thanks for the feedback!

Hah, I knew it! I got a feeling that combination is too much, thanks for confirming :)

I think if you give more horizontal clearance betweeen them it could, atm I just feel it is way too tight to get in there once they start shooting.

The combat feels smooth and the artistic style is really cool. The tutorial could use a bit more clarity, especially for the dashes and character position. Overall, great job with the game

Quite good! I only don't like the tutorial in the beginning - it took me a long time to notice that the character is actually in the bottom-right corner and also to understand how the dashes work. Otherwise good job, especially the combat techniques. By the way, my score after three games was 920.

Developer

Nice score! And thanks for the feedback regarding the tutorial! I guess it got less clear since I added more and more content in it, making the hero barely noticeable :D Also, I see it is a repetitive topic that dashes are not explained as good as they need to, thanks!

I really like the artistic proposal whether it's the sprites, the sets, the effects, the transitions it's very cool. I also really liked the integration of the tutorial in checkbox mode I find it very cool. On the other hand I regretted that there was no impact in the blows that we receive or that we give.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! <3 And thanks for playing!

Really nice! It took me too long to figure out how to jump, but that’s a skill issue. I wish I had the reflexes to play more!

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!

Loved the gameplay on this, very snappy.  The slowdown effect was really well done.

Developer

Thanks!

Nice game, took me a bit to understand how jump attack worked. 

Curious about your game engine, does it run on top of pico?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

My BeetPx engine is a separate thing I made from scratch, but it is inspired by PICO-8 a lot :)
