A really unique approach on battling, I like it! I think the audio is made in Beepbox, if I remember correctly, it adds a unique flowing sort of energy to the whole game. I think it could have been more dynamic if there was some other sort of musical theme playing during the fight scenes, that would have made the first encounter much more pivotal and all other leading encounters more active.
Otherwise, a fun little proof of concept, reminded me of a 2D chicken Fight Knight. Good game!
