Thanks for playing and for the detailed feedback!
The mastering of the music was a bit off. I tried to get it to loop perfectly, but I guess the end of it still had some effects that weren't at the start of the track. As for the fighting, I agree. The fighting wasn't really planned thoroughly, and I've added it to the project's issues. Feel free to provide any suggestions!
The time spent on this game was probably around 110 hours, averaging about 11 hours a day. The jam actually lined up perfectly for me; I was just about to graduate and didn't have any more schoolwork left, so I could focus on the jam 100%. It did cost me my sleeping schedule, though...
