Okay I was NOT expecting that. I absolutely love how unassuming the very beginning is and had a true WTF moment when the boss appeared. Suffice to say I was pleasantly surprised! I do wish I had some way to heal as I (a Certified Soulslike Master™) actually had some trouble avoiding damage, and five hits is not a lot. (…Or maybe I just need to get gud.) Truly amazing visuals and animation for “just a game jam.” I wanna see more! Amazing work.

One of the things I like about Soulslikes (this one included) is the very oddly timed animations on enemy attacks. It kind of forces me out of thinking about what the attacks should feel like and gets me to actually watch the animations of the bosses for telegraphs and such. In short – I think the actual combat is really interesting and the animations are seriously polished. Of course starting over is sometimes frustrating – but that could be chalked up to being “part of the experience.” I really don’t have any actual complaints or serious critques. Y’all should be proud!
