✦ AI summary

Players praise the Sekiro-inspired combat mechanics and parry system, finding it challenging and rewarding for its low price, though many note the game is quite short and can be completed in under two hours. Common complaints center on the extreme difficulty, with enemies frequently canceling player attacks and the parry system not offering defensive advantages like in Sekiro, making progression feel punishing and frustrating for some players. Despite these criticisms, fans of tough combat-focused games appreciate the focused design and express interest in seeing the concept expanded.

Overrall I liked the game, it is always good to see a sekiro-inspired combat. The game is simple and short but it is worth the 1.50€ I paid. You can just attack, parry and dodge. You can parry most of enemy's attacks except for some "special" attacks counterable with a player's attack. After you press Start, you can hit the first statue to change the behaviour of the parry, between continuous and temporary, with the continuous that auto-ends when parrying an attack. So even if you use the "easy parry" (continuous) you have to press the parry command for every enemy's attack. Also, parry is useful only to avoid simple attack, not to destabilise the enemy lke in sekiro. So you can't play defensive. I have to say that, in my opinion, the game is too much punishing. The weapon has a too short range compared to every weapon of the enemies. So almost every time you have to go foward to be able to hit the enemy. Moreover, after a parry, you can't attack for a fraction of a second, so it is almost impossible to do a fast parry+attack. It feel unresponsive, it is like the game ignores the gamepad command. Some enemies attacks are unreadable (this is mostly because of the pixel art…

It is not the hardest game in the world until it decides to be the hardest in the final boss fight. Mainly because sometimes my character model glitches and does not attack the 5th final enemy when I just parried his attacks and left it in a vulnerable state. Otherwise, fun game! First 4 bosses each took around 10-15 minutes. The last boss is not ridiculous either but the glitch makes my life miserable. Also, the cutscene at the start of each redo is redundant as it wastes time. An option to disable cutscenes would be nice and the aforementioned glitch fixed.

Really neat game, tiny but fun

The game itself is quite good, though really short. If you are any good at parrying you will probably beat the game in less than 2 hours, maybe even 1.
