Cool game!
Cool concept, but when playing the controls felt slow and sluggish. I could never really know what's going on. It's a cool idea, though, and I hope you expand upon and improve it!
Having issues attacking, the sword doesn't seem to work half the time. Also, getting hit once by an enemy and dying seems to be a bit harsh.
Cool game guys! I wish there was more content, but I totally understand why there isn't because I had to do similar cuts for my game. Hope you expand on this in the future!

--EDIT--
Thanks for rating my game! Sorry that you didn't enjoy it every much, and I just wanted to clear things up. We *just* imported the game into Gamemaker Studio, when we finished, and we didn't know that there were other options than the installer. The keybinding menu was just slapped in there, so I can understand it being bad. Not sure what you meant by the interface being 'painful,' and the enemy count was insane because we had been developing the game with a glitch limiting enemy spawns, and then we fixed that glitch after the jam ended, but we couldn't change the rates because that would be against the rules.
Cool game... it's very short though...
Doesn't match the Theme.
I wish you could resize the window... It's straining my eyes
Fantastic game
I liked it but there should be less obstacles, and more variation between fights. I understand that you were on a schedule but I got really bored after a bit.
I loved the game! The graphics were amazing, and I was determined to beat it! (Not really sure where the theme came in though...) Five Stars for everything!
You should really include a tutorial, I have no Idea how to play!
I made a shape and it doesn't work... LAME.
Great game guys! I played the entire thing, and enjoyed all of it! Keep it up.
Cool game, pretty short though.
Loved the game!
I was a fan of the graphics, very well done!
Wow, there are so many nice comments! As for the Controls, I will release V1.2 tomorrow which will include custom keybinding! (I think that's allowed, as the game will be functionally identical, just more comfy.) Thanks for all the feedback!

Hello, Ben here. We’ve received so many great comments from people rating our game, that I decided I’d respond to all of them, so here I go!
Thanks to Shatter Point Studios, @Sir Magic, @w1n5t0n, @SgtBursk, @Ironhead, @Beard, and @Pietro Ferrantelli for their kind words, and now here are the responses:
@Garris Thanks! I added key bindings in V1.2.
@Remdiky Sorry, what?
@MandolinQuinn Thanks! I’m not sure why volume control is rare, it’s not hard to implement! I agree about gradients, I’m gonna stay away from them in subsequent games.
@tomlum Key bindings in V1.2, volume control in the pause menu, and thanks!
@Peter1992t There was music though… Did you manipulate the volume slider in the pause menu at all?
@megalukes KEYBINDINGS!!! (Explodes silently) Thanks. ;)
@MissVioletVi I added more emphasis on shifting in V1.3.
@Ryusui Yeah… I nerfed the dog in V1.3. Thanks!
@coborax I’m sorry that you feel that way, ;-; can you give me some reasons why?
@tweedle I revised my comment a bit on your page, to be more specific. I’m not sure why you got a 404 though, it works fine for me!
@Sir Magic Sorry, that was probably one of the many enemy spawning glitches that was fixed in 1.4… :(
@Venneque I’m assuming you mean the different sized pixels in the map selection screen, and yeah, it’s bad. That UI was pieced together in the last hour of development. We put a ton of work into adding unique textures for the character’s forms.
Welp, that’s about it! Cya!
Cool experience! The game ran a bit choppily and the music was a little grating, but I enjoyed exploring the world!
Cool game, lags really hard on my computer though.
