Defeat is inevitable when you battle perfection, but to fail is what drives us on!

Armed with your Parrying Blade, deflect the Asssassin's Lightbullet back at him (W/Up/Z). He'll deflect it right back, and with each parry the Lightbullet's energy increases, gaining speed.

As if the Assassin wasn't enough of a cheater, he can also call on backup, summoning enemies on the left or right. Parry the Lightbullet to the correct side to take them out! (A/Left/Q and D/Right).

Super lightweight game as it was made in about twelve hours! Please post your high scores and gameplay in the comments, we'd love to maintain a high score table!

Thanks for playing!
