Really good idea and implementation. One of the best uses of the theme I've played so far. Took me a bit to work out that I had to click a direction first but I worked it out. Good work.

A great idea and executed well, sticks to the them perfectly. I like the music, however the graphics could be a little better for me, still not bad for what the are trying to convey. I found it quite confusing at the start, not much was obvious for me, however they may just be me. Once I got the jist though I got really into it, and I liked it a lot. Fantastic job and good luck!

We came up with the very simiar idea. I see a lot of potential in this game.

Very nice game! unique mechanics with good level design. Had to try some of the levels more times than I care to admit! Great job

Just turn off sound and you can enjoy the game

I could not finish it xD, but awesome idea about sacrificing the keys! Great game!

This game is so pure and the mechanic is really neat. It's not executed super well, though, which is a shame. Sacrificing moves often makes the levels impossible unless you sacrifice your attack. Maybe have more things to sacrifice or change up the level design to accommodate losing abilities? The background blends a bit too much with the character making him very hard to see. The animations were done very nice and I really liked the devil's design!

This is definitely one of the more unique uses of the sacrifice theme. Great idea! I figured out the controls and the sacrifice function pretty quickly even without the tutorial. Also, I really like that the player has a few options on how to complete the levels. Nice job!

Awesome mechanic. Great humour. I really like the style of the game. The mechanic is really well polished and I didn't run into any issues with it. The levels are generally well-built and not overly complicated. Only real issues I had was that the "sacrifice" UI is a bit messy I would say and not very easy to understand at a first glance. Otherwise I really enjoyed playing this!

This is a great idea! I had a lot of fun!

The devil reminds me of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I enjoyed the game. I learned you should always sacrifice attack because you can just run into the enemies and still kill them. The latest level I made it to the location of the portal was not clear, so I was not sure exactly where to go. Also, while the altars said they gave you back your abilities there didn't seem to be any visual indication. Still it was a good game and on theme.

Really like this game, funny one of my idea was also to sacrifice game input but in the end i thought i would be a bad a idea and you proved me wrong nice game, enjoyed the time playing it
