Hah! Have you ever played Kirby Super Star? This reminded me a lot of the Samurai Kirby game, but... grosser, and with better sound effects. Super unique take on the theme.

This is a really cool game. I got a real sense of stakes seeing something eek closer to the inside of my body. Great work.

Great idea for the theme. But at the first time to play I couldn't really get the way to play this to be honest, only that I knew was that we cut deeper to kill the enemy. Which one was the player at first? Or was it a game to play with a friend? Other than that with music, art and that innovative idea you had with this game were pretty cool. Good job!

Fun game for the simplicity, I really like the interpretation of the theme! The way you did the health bar showing the different layers is clever and matches the gameplay mechanic and visuals very well. Music and sound effects are great! I would have liked to see some variation with the power timer thing like varying speeds, maybe different size green bars just to add more gameplay length. I think having the tissue textures on the health bar would have been a really cool idea too. Good stuff!

It's a fun game. Is this game for one person? Even after the game is over as a swordsman or archer, you become a winner. It's a game that makes good use of the theme.

Lol, this was pretty hardcore :) I liked the art and the idea! Would have been nice to have some more gameplay, but you certainly did a good job of delivering everything that's there! Good work!
