The sound is good, the controls feels good and the graphics are awesome. A little bit to easy for me though

I love it! Too bad though you didn't had time to put the game over screen and the in game menu

I kind of fell in love with the graphics, and the gameplay is simple, but efficient.
Great experience overall, although I cleared it on first try.

Thanks for the feedback, @raphael-maia , @lshiro and anonymous commenter! It's amazing to know that people I don't even know are playing our game.

The art is great! The controls are very responsive. It felt good to just jump and run around punching bone boys. The music was driving me nuts but I can understand why it was so limited. Overall a really well cared for piece of work. Good JOB!

Really liked the art and the enemies progression, at first I got the idea of having too much health but when you discover the upgrade mechanic it totally makes sense, for that reason I think I will start the game by letting the player choose and upgrade or by making the first wave shorter. Good job!

@no-grapes-games thank you!! A lot of love was invested in this. About the music, at first I really wanted to make an amazing orchestral soundtrack for the game, I focus in music. Programming and balancing got all the time tough, and I had time just for one song, and a very, very rushed one. I'm happy with it tough, given the circumstances.
And about the art, @Greon is amazing, isn't he? He's the one in charge of most visuals, I'm very proud of what he has done for our game.

Awesome game loved summoning my clones and beating down on those weird shadow guys. Just a suggestion maybe add in blocking or a way to dodge quickly I found it hard to dodge attacks. Good work!

Cool beatemup with awesome pixel art. You should consider adding more feedback when get hit or get hurt to make it feel meatier - like particle effects or a screen shake. Also, what happens if your out of health?

The summon your clone thing reminds me of Dragonball Z and Naruto lol.

Finished your game but it was not easy! Beautiful graphics and interesting survival gameplay. But controls.. a little bit difficult to press "Z" when you trying avoid attacks) Anyway, thanks for this expirience! You made a cool game)

Amazing art on levels that creates really great atmosphere, liked characters animation. I'd say the game could be improved with increasing intensity of the enemies, sometimes game feels quite slow. Good submission though!

@spooky glad you liked it! about the blocking, we do had it planned, we actually had the sprites, but couldn't do it at time, we'll be looking after it in future!

@mza i'm happy seeing that most of you guys liked the art, as it was so fun for me doing it, and yeah, i do think that it needs some kind of warning that you're hitting or being hit, thank you for the feedback! well, if your health goes empty, you die. Your girlfriend too, so don't die haha.

@dinorex so good to see you guys liking our first game, yeah, the controls need to be worked on, i know it, some way to dodge and thing, but thank you for bringing that to us!

@z0rlog ooh, thank you, i loved drawing and animating them, think it could be done better, and will do it. we're also going to improve and balance difficulty, thank you for the feedback!

Well done guys, the controls feel tight but I think it would be nice to see more platforms to jump a little bit more.
