I really liked the self-paced phases. Being able to push my luck to gather additional souls or retreat to the safety of cocoa and upgrades was a cool dynamic for me as a player to experiment with. I didn't really find a good counterplay to the green imp things with their ranged attacks, jumping or shifting to dodge didn't seem super effective so I ended up taking most of those hits which tended to be my limiting factor. It might be interesting to try letting the player deflect those projectiles with a well-timed attack. Loved the art/music combo, and the funny juxtaposition of the heavy metal combat with the chill fireplace was great.

That was pretty fun ! Congrats! I think it was too difficult at the beginning, but overall it was quite fun. Congrats

The transition between heavy guitar music while getting swarmed by enemies and the muzak in the basement, just chilling in a chair, was incredibly hilarious to me. Very cool concept, though it can be difficult to balance the different enemy attacks without just bailing to the basement. Great visuals & sound!
