Very original, interesting idea!
But hard to grasp at first and very challenging even when you understand the basics (well, I didn't really understand the prayer, though). Giving an easier start could help, maybe :D
Other possible enhancements:
- sometimes I got 4 or 5 times in arrow the same "sword" encounter (limit to 1 or 2?)
- a slightly slower curve of difficulty increase, maybe? getting to frantic speeds can be nice but it happens very quickly
Did you make the musics and sfx? They are nice, too.
Good job, and thx for the submission!
