There's a lot to like here, especially the idea and style, there's a lot I feel could be built upon to make a very interesting game. For the future, I feel like my big suggestion would be to work a bit more on collision and making your impacts feel crunchy and satisfying, I think that could make fighting the enemies overall even more enjoyable, just a personal tip tho.
cool game

Cool game but whenever I hit the beast, there was only a 1/3 chance I would actually kill it.

I didn't actually do any fighting in my run of this game. Took me a while to realise you have to double-click to attack, so at first I thought the sword was just bugged, but the age-old method of sprinting past everything worked perfectly. None of the enemies could catch me. I also think the art style is a little thematically confused - you play a robot inside a painting-version of your heart fighting what look like werewolves? With all this said, just getting a game finished and playable in 72 hours is a great achievement, and there is a really good game in here if you develop on it. I agree with @christianaufiero that the combat could do with being a little more crunchy. Good luck with all your future projects, and thanks for making this!
Nice game. I like the idea. But sometimes i have to click a few times to get the character hit. Other than that, game is fun and interesting. Good work!

Was this going to be a VR game? SteamVR started when I launched the game, so I played in VR. The menus and HUD don't work in VR and the world seems tilted, but I finished the game with keyboard and HMD. I liked to look around and see the whole map :)
Overall, not bad. The combat could use some work, you can attack an enemy when their back is turned and they wont notice. I enjoyed playing!
Thank you everyone for the feedback!
@coolo2o It takes 2 hits to kill a beast.
@ludevum It's not supposed to be a vr game :smile:
Awesome game!!!

This is overall a fun little jam game. The fighting mechanic could need some more work, but it is okay for a jam game.
