- Really nice art
- Quick, fast and fun
Cons :
- Restarting to the first level is a bit too punishing, especially with this level of difficulty
- The ennemy hitbox is very punishing and the sword hitbox doesn't match the sword at all, which made it confusing
- It took me some time to understand the "shop" (I thought I had to interact with it at first)
Very hard to play. Probably It is something wrong with me/
I passed the game, but the control is uncomfortable because the radius of attack is not obvious.
Could be a bit punishing. But, in case you want to keep instant death I would recommend to polish combat mechanics a bit:
- add some death sfx/vfx to enemies
- speed up initial attack animation (fadeout animation/cooldown could be the same, but players would want an instant response to any input) YOKO TARO and Takahisa Taura wouldn't lie :smile:

- tweak the enemy's trigger boxes. You might have several of them. Smaller to killing a player, and larger for income attacks from a player.
It is also not quite clear why we need these crystals, but I guess you have some plans for them later.
Overall, the game looks awesome so far. A quick intro makes it easier to restart and try again with extra motivation. Good luck with the jam!
PS. Only on my 10th playthrough, I noticed a different attack animation when you click while running :)
PS2. I've beaten it

Liked the graphics, movement is pretty nice and sound is good!
Great entry!
