Just played the latest update

Pretty solid all around, and that new boss was cool as well

That said, I feel like the sprite layer of the projectiles from the 3rd boss should be above that the of the boss. I ended up taking quite a lot of damage because I couldn't really see why I was taking damage.

I also think that the colour of the projectiles could be a little different from the environment. Mostly because they kinda blended into the environment sometimes

This also applied to the final boss quite a lot. Everything was red to the point that the boss, it's attacks, the player and the player's attacks all just kinda blended together at times.

I also think the game is maybe a little too forgiving now ? Maybe the player could take slightly more damage with every hit, just to ensure that they can't just tank themselves through the game. Admittedly I kinda did that in some places

Also, just a small suggestion, but maybe a successful stab for health could increase your combo meter depending on the amount of blood you absorbed

All things considered, the update is pretty great overall. Solid work on this.

Im a fan of your game and art! I would like to give you a cameo in my game. Let me know if you are interested. The game is https://store.steampowered.com/app/3299850/The_Last_Phoenix/ 

The game is good, I cleared it in about 2 hours (because of the first boss, when I defeated him, I didn't die anymore), I hope there will be more such games.

same feeling as in dark souls: I want to break my screen
loved it

you solo developed it ?

Really cool ! Is it from a game jam ?

when was the rework coming out

Heyope, this ended up being in my favourite itch games of 2024 (place 6).

I really like boss battles and this game has some fun ones. Especially the last boss seemed insanely interesting. Though sadly I didn't beat it because of how long replays took.

Maybe I'll get around to it now.

Anyways I gave the game a little shoutout on my yearly Blogpost. And I would absolutely donate 8 Bucks if you had them open.

Anyways, sorry for the second comment just to advertise my Blogpost, your other games are looking real good too I'm really excited to find the time to play them.

Really neat game, I wish the controls were different since as a left-handed person I never use WASD for movement. Using the arrow keys for it and z/x/c for actions would be much more preferred. Controller support even moreso.

A game about Inmost's knight. Awesome, but really buggy

yo thanks for the warning didnt see it till too late lol

great game but i had some problems, could'nt beat the second boss got when i got the "more attack speed less damage" perk, but overall is really fun

the game crashed when the cave mole thing atacked me while i was healing

the game is cool but what the fuck are these controls

WOw.. amaizing. 

Super fun game! I really like the feel of the controls and the music. I'm hooked

Very fun! I love the blood mechanic

The game is really good, I look fordward to playing the update once it comes. My only complaint is that the game glitches and softlocks every other run, so it's really annoying and frustrating to play.

3rd boss makes me wanna jump off a bulding, nice!

Fun! It motivated me to participate in the 2025 Boss Rush Jam as i was skeptical as i make 2d games. Nice!

This game is awesome! Trying to say this without spoiling anything, are you supposed to be able to interact with that NPC at the end of the game or is there only the one ending?

Stellar game, very fun to speedrun, is there multiple endings?

Beautiful art, love the gameplay and variety of gameplay or risk in these games. The style is perfect, right up my alley. Great job and love everyone who worked on this project. 11/10

the game is cool and question the game kick you for dying? 

AMAZING GAME AND THE DESIGN IS JUST EPEIC I LOVED THE OVER ALL GAME PLAY AS WELL NO WONDER IT IS IN THE TOP 5

I really like the aesthetic and overall gamefeel. For my personal taste, I would tune down the vibration a bit. Had some crashes that seem to be related to absorbing blood while the the enemy changes state or something like that, I'm sure it will be fixed :)

really cool game, the movement feels quite smooth and fluid

sadly had some bugs and crashes but the game has a lot of potential. I really enjoyed it, gj! PLEASE KEEP WORKING ON IT!

nice game

what an ass game

Awesome game!, idk if the crash in the third boss occurs i at every game but it was good! make more games like this but longer! is this game on steam?

Awesome game, sad its so short.

This game is super fun! it crashed during the fly boss for me tho, which was a shame

Out of curiosity, what font did you use?

Hellos,

This game is really awesome, I am currently working to port this game to retro arm linux-based handhelds via Portmaster (http://portmaster.games/) and I am wondering if you are okay with the distribution of the game via Portmaster, or would you prefer users to download the game files from here directly?

Kind regards,

Fraxinus88

how do you use blood arts, it doesnt seem to be in the tutorials.

Awesome game, I would totally play a full length version or something similar

Pls make a port to linux, or at least try to make it compatible with wine

fun! It crashed on me on the eyes boss:

It is a very striking and fun game but I had 2 bugs when entering the power selection area for the first time, touching the blood didn't take me anywhere and the other bug was when the 2nd battle with the boss of the eyes ends, the game stops drawing blood towards the player, maybe it's the math that gave that bug even so I had fun playing it I will continue playing it hoping you fix those bugs greetings!

really cool game, the artstyle is amazing. The font is a little hard to read, but it's not horrible.
