The core mechanic is pretty interesting and it's fun to try and pick a route knowing that wherever you go, danger will follow. The controls are pretty neat as well, especially the dash action which can lead to some close calls with the shadow as you dash out of the way. Definitely ties the game together quite a bit.
However, I'm not a huge fan of how long the death animation takes, as well as how it brings you all the way back to the start screen. I might just be bad but considering how often I died it felt a bit frustrating to have to wait so long to retry.
It's not half bad for the time frame though and definitely an interesting interpretation of the theme!
