This game was really really fun. My only complaint was that it wasn't longer! I don't think there's a way of gracefully exiting the game also, just FYI

I loved the gameplay. The menus didn't look great and I couldn't exit the game but still nice job! I though it was difficult and fun :)

Retro samurai fun! Try to imagine the potential this game could have: sneak while pushed against walls, more enemies/situations. A nice entry, that deserves MOAR development! ;)

One (silly) complaint: you had to put TATAMIs on the floor, they are rectangular (sort of)! :P

Really well done. One time i got a little bug where i could just strike upwards. But the other tries really managed to make me want more.

Thanks so much! We ran into like a hundred million AI bugs toward the end, so a lot of features/levels got dropped and menus weren't finished as we wanted them :)

Also because of a recurring glitch with the ESC key we had to use the "Q" button as an exit. Another fix added in the last 20 min :P
