There was silence in heaven
When the dragon fought with the Archangel Michael.

The Sacrifice is a powerfull attack that can
destroy demon-portals and multiple enemies,
but it will cost you the life of one angel

Really interesting mechanic there! I really enjoyed the challenge as well as the sweet guitar jamming in the background! This could be a really fun released game if you continued working on it. Too bad I wasn't able to finish it :)

Awesome! Very difficult, but I think has good post jam potential to become an awesome game!! Great job! Love the music, the graphics, the kinda top down Diablo-esque feel!!

Great game, love the idea, I would like to bring up one thing I thought of after playing it on stream yesterday(also want to get that LD Karma haha) I'd like to see it more twin sticky I don't mind the stop to shoot like gauntlet, but just being able to shoot at non 45 degree increments.

Very metal! While the sacrifial system and normal lives being one and the same felt thematically appropriate, it kind of created a situation where I wanted to restart from scratch if I died without using the ability. That said, there was a very interesting logistical challenge of deciding which pentagrams to destroy and which ones to leave. Good work getting a boss in, too! Good work :)

Really like the aesthetic. Thanks so much for bringing it by the stream!
