Great entry! I really like the gameboy-ish graphics! The sounds are nice, too. I liked the ending of the story! Sometimes it was a bit hard to play, but that is more a problem of the theme. Great Work!
Thanks for the kind words ^^. And I agree, I probably should have spent more time on fine-tuning the gameplay, but I literally just managed to get the game finished. Thus, this happens to me at every gamejam. :D
Great job with the sound and music! I also really liked the style of the sprites/tiles, it seemed very cohesive despite how little time there was to put it together. There were a couple of spots where it seemed like the shape of the level made it very hard not to get hit, but that wasn't a big deal. Congratulations!
Thanks for the feedback! I spent majority of my time to making those simple graphics, so it feels great to hear that. hence, I am a programmer not an artist, so it feels even better. Thus, I agree that some of the levels were made like that.. but for those reasons I added some hp pick ups here and there. (;
Really like the flying mechanic, felt great although switching was sometimes a little tough. The guards were assholes though, they kept stepping on my head and I couldn't escape haha.
Looks good! I love the Gameboy graphics. You definitely nailed the style! Music is good too, but it was really soft on my end compared to the SFX. Mechanics are a little clunky. Some times I would just want to back away from an enemy but I end up turning into a bat and some glitches when turning into a bat in tight areas. But seriously good job on this one, it came out great!
A pretty versatile use of the theme. With just two buttons, you can either lure enemies around, try to dodge them as a bat, or straight up punch them. Gotta say the presentation is a step up from some of your earlier jam entries I've seen.
I like the transformation concept a lot but I think the time it takes to change should be a bit less (although I did manage to circumvent that limit by alternating between the two arrow keys). My only gripe is that the only way I could exit the game was to alt-tab first instead of pressing alt+f4 or esc.
Cool mechanic! It's fun changing forms and trying to dodge stuff. The camera is a bit too shaky when you're flying and it's moving up and down, but it's nothing too bad. The graphics are nice and evocative -- I like the darkness punctuated by torches. And the baroque-y organ is a nice touch, very Dracula!
Cool idea! I ran into an issue where oftentimes the transformation would play over and over rapidly which could be a little grating (Very noisy) but I'm not entirely sure what caused it.

Got to the end eventually though... did I die? :O
Well executed game! I liked the transformation mechanic and the way you attack (after I understand it).
Even with being limited to only two buttons you managed to pull it off - the game felt good. Well done :)
