I liked this about the game:

  • Good art style and character designs;
  • Nice backgrounds;
  • The enemy approaching warnings are cool.

I played it a few times, and have problems with the following:

  • Special Attacks felt useless, both because of the time you spend and the health cost, even against enemies you have an advantage against;
  • The game runs down to if you got lucky with the typing match-up, if not, just change colors;
  • The game felt a bit slow paced, but still bearable overall;
  • Changing colors should be reworked, i feel like instead of pressing keys you should press buttons, including cancelling it.

I have the following suggestions:

  • Instead of type match-ups just being a link in the description, it should be implemented inside the game, like a how to play, considering how short it is;
  • Instead of basic attacks costing health, attacks should deal more damage (Unless that's what you're going for);
  • I feel like Special Attacks should be stronger or have an special effect to compensate the health you've lost to cast it.

Although this is just a demo, I can see a lot of potential with this!
