I found some aspect hard to understand. Why was I only attacking in one direction for instance. Why were so many enemies just standing around. It controlled well and the core concept was easy enough to understand but I felt too limited.
I would also ask to please make sure there is a volume control in your game. The music was nice but way too loud and with no simple way to control it overly so in my headphones. The art was also quite good with most parts easy enough to read with good contrast.
Feel free to check out the game I made with a group for this jam too https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-jam-2022/rate/1618446
