Super cool hack and slash. It is exactly the kind of game I love. The writing, art, and game feel are very good. I couldn't finish this version, the boss was too hard. If I had some nitpicky preferences I felt like the melee attacks were too "sticky" and wish I could cancel attacks into dodges or especially aim mode (you know, to quickly take the last bit off of a shield). I also wish I could swap gun so I could save special ammo for when I felt I needed it. Lastly, I wished the green enemy's attacks were better telegraphed, like the indicator could gradually fill up to make it easier to time a dodge. Excellent work and hope to see an expanded version or more from you in general!
Well, I'm off to finally beat the boss on the updated version! Great work!
