Really fun game! Nice visuals, and the soundtrack and chunky kills pulled me into the action rightaway. Lovely use of the limitation too, nice job!

I like the game! It has fluid movement, and although it could use a bit of direction in telling the player where to go, I thought it was a very good experience. Enjoyed it a lot, would slash again.

Arson SimulatorAltough a little bit unfinished (this didn’t affect my rating), it was really fun to play all the way through. I don’t know what else to say, honestly. Decent, fun, satisfying game, I didn’t even encounter any bugs or glitches. Very well done

Sausage DriftThe smooth movements of dashing and slashing were a lot of fun! And the flashy blood splatter too...! Awesome!
I thought the screen was shaking too much, but if it was a bug I understand.
I think the fall detection is only around the island, so if you dash from a slightly off position your controlled character will be able to walk in the air. Lol!
Very cool and cohesive, too bad you didn’t have time for a bossfight at the end because it would fit SO WELL! Great job for a jam <3

Burnt WingsNot new to gamedev, so it's pretty bad hahahahaha.... doing it sidely on weekend. The camshake is a bug, have fixed it tho. but yeah. it was so different than my original plan. It supposed to have boss fight and cutscenes. but didn't manage to do all of that alone hahaha.... but yeah... as one man team, i satisfied with this project
dashing and slashing is pretty fun I have to admit. Love the style and particles, but the screen shake is a bit much. also thank you for putting in checkpoints. great job!

Light CookVery fun concept! The camera shake was a bit too much for me, but overall, good job!

Sunset DanceLOVE THE BLOOD EFFECTS and explosions. It has so much juice, which really makes it stand out. Nice work on that front!
One small suggestion would be to reduce the camera shake by about 60%. You definitely feel the impact, which is awesome, but the rapid shaking, especially in 1-frame increments, can get a bit overwhelming and even gave me a headache, even in such a short play session.
Overall though, fantastic job with the visual feedback and the overall feel of the game. It's super engaging and packed with action!

ECAROH'S ELEMENTALSThe camera shake is actually a bug... lol i intended to make the explosion has that effect, unfortunately, there's a delay between the explosion and the shake (idk why), which makes it look like a total chaos, especially with that many enemies you got. i'll working on it tho.... and also working on a boss fight hahaha... thanks for playing.
wow this game has juice! really fun game, and easy to got into! my main criticism is that the screen shakes were maybe a little too extreme for my taste

Burnt WingsNice easy mechanic. I like the chaotic energy of the game: The camera shake, flashy effects, huge blood explosions and so on.
