Well this was an experience! This feels like a great concept, but it needs a really big amount of polish. I love the art style, the visual background, the way it looks like undertale but is more an homage than a copy. What I don't like is the lack of feedback in the gameplay. No hit animations, no damage animation, when you defeat someone they dissapear so quickly, I thought it was a glitch. And the puzzle was too hard, not because of the puzzle, but because it looks like a glitch when you teleport back. It's all about feedback for the player. That being said, this is a sick concept that could be a great game, especially with the theme and twist in the ending!
Keep working on it :)

Hey, we appreaciate you checking out the game!
You're absolutely right, there's a crazy amount of polish we need to give this one. Whilst there are damage and hit animations, I can see how they need improvements since they aren't as punchy as I wanted them to be. And that puzzle section's gonna get some pretty significant changes, including some proper feedback regarding errors in the puzzle!
Makes us happy you see potential in it, though. Thank you very much for playing and for the thoughtful feedback! We really do appreciate it!
