Cool music, nice mechanics, stressful and a bit difficult, but it's good!

- Great music, nice color palette. It's really fun! The gameplay is addictive, kept dying and wanting to keep trying over and over. Being able to hold the attack button would be nice.

Very nice boss battle game. The fight isn't too hard and the visual works well in indications.
Really cool ! This game has an amazing "feel" to it already, the sound design is great and the shadow mechanic is simple but it works great, this could be improved into a really fun longer game.
Man, that was a tough battle! But it truly feels rewarding when you win. This is honestly a really well polished game! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Snappy and simple gameplay. But it it's not boring or underbaked ! A
You rock!
Simple and effective. I really like the uncovering-map mechanic.
Pros:
Easy to grasp, player feedback, well-balanced inputs (main, alt, dash)
Cons:
hitboxes and movement is a tad sharp
A nice little boss battle with some banging music to get you in the mood. The ramp in difficulty caused a couple of deaths, but nothing I couldn't manage after a few tries. Super fun man!
I left a rating a few days ago, but apparently those are disabled now, so I'll leave a comment!
this game is super fun!! it picks up in difficulty fast and makes you feel the pressure, but not in a way that feels unfair. the burst attack is my best friend and my savior; actually, it might be helpful to have the player's sprite flash or something when its cooldown is over, because usually I'm too busy trying to desperately navigate my character to glance up at the corner of the screen.
What a treat!! This is a fantastic concept that I would absolutely purchase as a full game! I thought the movement and combat felt fantastic, and the art was out of this world! Only critique is that there are a few spots where you can be completely safe, but thats not really an issue :) Great job!!
The gameplay is awesome! Controls feel great, music is on point, and the art style is fun and simple, yet still very informative. I would love to fight some more bosses!!
When the tutorial told me about how I can shoot away the light I was like "yess, that's some good design"
It's really great since it makes the common strategy of running in circles to avoid the enemies be much harder.
The difficulty is perfect, I won on like the 5th time, learning to make use of the area ability was key. Never used the dash though. Great game!
I really like the music, the tutorial is well made. Overall a very good game, well done!
This was by far my favorite submission! I love the concept, being able to shoot away the light as a shadow mage. And of course boss fights are awesome!
This is a tough but fun game.
I love the intractable tutorial you did, that is a very neat way to teach the controls and mechanics.
Good Job!
