Really cool game! I didn't realize I could keep the head out at first and then bring it back at will, and that was a game changer! Super fast paced, maybe too fast for my taste, but really fun!

Thanks so much for playing! I agree it's way too hard and needs more depth and progression! :)
I loved the light effects! Maybe I would create a darker environment to emphasise the shooting, but nice work!
Thanks for playing! Good idea I'll try messing with the colors!
while it feels a bit barren, i really like how both the movement and attack feel like. I could imagine a good full game being based on this mechanic!
Wow thanks a bunch! I'm probably going to expand on it in the future I really like how it came out too! Thanks for playing :D
Like other have pointed out, the random enemy spawning causes some unfair feeling deaths. Other than this the game feels pretty nice and the attack mechanic is interesting.
Definitely, the enemy system could use more work! I'll probably keep tweaking this one! Thanks so much for playing!
I'm a big fan of the attack mechanic - it was deceptively versatile for a one-button attack. My main criticism is the enemies being able to spawn right next to the player without warning felt a bit unfair, which when combined with the one hit death was the cause of most of my game overs. Nice and crisp visuals and overall satisfying to play - good job!
That's awesome! I'm glad you liked it too! The enemies definitely need some refinement in their spawning and variety but I'll keep working on it! Thanks for playing :D
Nice game ! Really like the attack system with the head, and graphics are simple but effective,
Well done !
Thanks a bunch! I'm considering filling out the game more and seeing where the mechanic goes! Thanks for playing!
This was cool, reminded me the God of War axe mechanic :)
One feedback would be that maybe insta-death is a bit harsh for game this fast.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! I think if I go to expand on this game I'll prioritize a health system, maybe some sort of upgrades, and more enemies! Thanks for playing :)
Arrrgggg!!!
that thing that you have just one shot at time, your head, is...
it's a nice game, graphics and music really ok...!
Thanks a bunch man and thanks for playing, I hope you had fun with it too!
