Les musiques et les graphismes sont tops!\n- Le concept est vraiment bien, le choix \"rester au m\u00eame \u00e9tage\" ou \"descendre\" est vraiment bon, \u00e7a rajoute de la tension. \n- Apr\u00e8s, j'ai quelques r\u00e9serves sur l'impl\u00e9mentation du combat, je trouve que \u00e7a manque d'\u00e9quilibrage, mais bon c'est un jeu de jam \u00e7a peut pas \u00eatre parfait dessus.\n- Pour l'instant, les pi\u00e8ges et les tours sont pas super utiles sur les derniers niveaux, et le soul blast reste l'outil principal pour progresser.\n\nGlobalement ce qui manque au jeu c'est de l'\u00e9quilibrage et un peu de peps sur les combats.

Cool exploration of theme. However I'm not sure what this game is trying to be in terms of gameplay. You're basically not able to stop enemies from coming, your defences can be placed only on the roads far from your base and they don't deal much damage to enemies. As I see it you can only run around for one minute and punch poor souls (why? Maybe you didn't have time for it but there definitely should have been special animation). I think you need to emphasize on either tower-defence (give player more agency and allow to build working defences that would hold for some time) or on collecting souls - make some other challenge to running around other then time limit.
