The music would suddenly stop, and it seems like enemies were invisible sometimes, but it's a solid concept!

Sound is a bit glitchy, but overall fun game.

Nice Game, music seems nice but cuts when clicking play. The controls are a bit slippery. I really like the low res aesthetic. I'm amazed that you had time to do all model/animation/music. The game start to a be a little repetitive after a while.

Great game overall. Good job :)

the graphics are really nice and the gameplay is quite fun, but the difficulty increases somewhat sudden. Still a great entry

Very hard game, guess death IS inevitable! Good graphics, fun gameplay. Good job 😃

First, music is ok for me (saw some comments above).

Second, I didn't realize the game have started I was already been attacked. I've died with zero score at the first time, haha. But then I could play forever, I think I got the point, but it becames repetitive very soon

It's a bit confusing in the beginning, I do not think I fully understand how to play the game. I think I figured the bottom red line, but cannot figure out what the top number is for.

The game gives some Doom like vibe.

Combat could be fun, but I don't feel impact of shots and can't say am I missing or not.
Character moveset is good though

Decent game. Reminds me a lot Devil Daggers. The gun needs some more feedback though. Its difficult to tell what it does or how it works.

I think some of the feedback the game provides is a little confusing and feel a bit slide-y, but you've got a bunch of moves and an solid aesthetic nailed down!

Very interesting to use a meele weapon instead of the usual gun. Most games like this use projectile based weapons so this is a very refreshing take on it. Like others have said the secondary fire thing should be WAY more impactfull, go crazy!

Devil daggers heavily inspired I see;) Technically all was fine on HTML despite very old hardware (Intel HD 3000). The only issue with game I had was already mentioned - slippery controls. Total mayhem like this should be as tight as possible imo, no low friction necessary - if I release a button I should stop. Other than that everything was very good, with wide variety of enemies. Really nice.

Good game. Takes too many hits to slay enemies though.

I really like the old school graphics! Getting a bit more feedback about what is happening (enemy health bars, whether the ground pound is working) would go a long way in making this even more fun.
