Hi! I'm not sure what this is and how it relates to the theme. I was wondering if I could get some sort of explanation

@0megq , great question! We interpreted "Limited Space" as a "Limited Vision Space", where the player's vision is limited to a tiny spot around the character until they or the boss attacks, highlighting a bit more space in a flash of light.
So the intended challenge was to use these indications of attacks strategically to expand your Limited Vision Space and kill the boss.
What do you think about the idea, is it reflected in the final game at least a bit? 😅

@depression , you are right, we messed up with the time planning and were not expecting that not having sounds would make such a difference >.<
