This is looking great! Interesting choice to have the silhouette be white. It might be good to let the player change this in the options to different presets like black or dark grey. Also have you thought about adding red blood particle effects for the strikes? Again would probably be best to let the player toggle that on and off depending on their preference.
Addictive little game! Just really stuck on level 4 but oh man did it feel good to clear it and get to the end.
Great game!!! Just please add checkpoints (especially on the longer level). Very cool mechanics and combat. The ennemies are really interesting!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
