Pretty cool little game! I played with keyboard and mouse, and know that's not the intended way but I don't have a controller. I think the sword range could be shown a little better, as it's hard to tell how far it will reach. The sword swing has a lot of startup frames and cancels itself when spammed. That's cool for forcing a more methodical approach, but having it cancel into itself feels sort of clunky. I think the idea has lots of potential and would love to play it once the keyboard+mouse input is fixed!
