hey i reviewed your game and 9 others here:
Why did you think it was a good idea to have an enemy that SHOOTS A DOZEN PARTICLES AT ME???
In general its good but needs a restart button asap! XD
Huh? Did you get softlocked? If you did, please tell me about it so I can fix it.
yeahh i died and i couldn't start another game untill i refreshed the page... i got killed from taking damage from something invisible i don't really know how..
I loved the boss bar, but mine is better hihi
hey i played your game and liked it. it has a rewarding difficulty curve. is there any way to swing without damaging yourself??? also i make yt videos about itch games like this one:
do you want your game reviewed in my next video???Hello, the entire ‘‘gimmick’’ of the game is that attacks cost blood, so unfortunately there isn’t a way to swing without losing HP.
Oh, and yes, I would like my game to be reviewed.
