Game was super hard. 

but I was a fan of the character, design!

Developer

Thanks! It was a lot of trial and error to balance the game and it was my intention for it to be a little on the difficult side. Hopefully it wasn't too bad. Haha

It's a bit difficult to play because the attack animations are not fast enough. Also I think I'm missing the "Alchemy" part of the theme? But overall a pretty good first try. Keep it up!

Developer

The alchemy part of the game was more related to the blood consumption and infusing oneself with beastly powers. I initially had shapeshifting in mind, but due to time constraints I had to think of something simpler (sprite outlines). Thanks for the feedback, will take them into consideration in the future!
