The sound effects were pretty nice and the concept was also quite interesting. For some reason whenever I'm near the generator the game started lagging. I also felt that the knockback from the enemies was too much.

However, great work guys!

I think the one thing i would have liked is a one screen prompt teaching you how to play the game instead of having to read the description, other then that i enjoyed the game quite a bit.

Fun game, short, sweet to the point! The riff is good although quite repetitive overtime. I really like the baby "bleaww" sound.

The animations were hilarious. The axe felt decently satisfying to swing but could've benefited from a bit of screenshake on hit.

Pretty fun game! The concept actually reminds me of my own jam entry. The attacking & combat could use some polish

This was pretty cool. One thing I found weird, probably unintentional, is that pressing SPACE does damage to all of the enemies. Other than that, well done!

Fun little game! A tutorial would be nice, but the game is simple enough that it isn't really needed, good job!

That was the best game I've ever played in my whole entire life. This is like if Dark Souls and Yarg's Ahoy! had a baby. Absolute perfection.

Could have been fun, if the monsters didn't spawn more or less on top of the player.

Nice game! It reminds me the game I made for my first game jam. I liked the radial axe feature but I would add some in-game tutorial explaining the generator.

Sound effects are nice, and I liked the bluesy soundtrack :)

The enemies sometimes spawned too close to the player. I feel like always spawning them off-screen would work a bit better.
