This game is amazing, the art looks great, and the gameplay is great as well.

My main concern is that the player's hitbox is MASSIVE. I'd imagine that it's the same size as the actual sprite. I suggest making it smaller and more square shaped to make it easier to evade the attacks.

Also, the lack of sound when I take damage makes it hard to tell when I actually take damage. I've been playing Undertale lately and don't actually look at the player when I play- so I can't tell when I'm taking damage.

Otherwise, great soundtrack, great gameplay, great story, and great game. Amazing job!

Such a thoughtful review!! We really appreciate it! We agree about the hitboxes- although it might have been the hitbox of the shadow arms that was too big, rather than the player's.  As for damage sound effects, that would definitely have been good to have. Thank you so much for your kind words! 

congrats!

Thank you!! ^_^

Congrats on first place! Awesome game !

I don't know man... who is that got left behind? The main character's grandma? Or... someone else? I felt sorry for John that he had to deal with this XD. Makes me think ;)

This was so fun to watch! Thank you for playing! 

Wow cool game!

This is so great! Graphics, that sort of Deltarune-like (or undertale-like) music, and damn the fight was challenging!

This game is AMAZING   total Undertale vibes.
