Great game! I loved the mechanics of taking shots and throwing! I would just change the level text color...

Well done!

Nice game. I like the art and music. The small details are also nice, like the punches being able to be uppercut or punching down as well.

Since the grab and parry only work against certain enemy types, it would be nice to have another option besides just punching that is always available.

Nice game! The pick up and throw mechanics are interesting, but I found myself rather choosing to just go up to enemies and punching them repeatedly instead, because the damage ranged attacks did wasn't very significant. I also found the health system to be a little confusing.

I love the mechanics in this game. Thanks to them gameplay is really entertaining!
I would suggest to add more elaborate scoreboard. Other than that, it's a very solid production.

Good job! ;D

A pretty solid rouge-like game. Love the concept on the mechanics. Personally, I feel like the grab hitboxes are a tad too small, rendering the grab mechanic a bit useless. The feedback on hitting the enemies over and over again is really nice, although there's currently no real benefit of doing so. Had fun playing it, love the all the graphics and audios too. Well done!

Good work on the graphics and sound! The gameplay was interesting, although the controls had a tendency to feel clunky at times. Good job!

This game has some very well done and fitting graphics and I really liked the beginning animation of diving into the character's dreams. The concept overall was very well executed. I had some issues figuring out how the health system worked exactly, but I figured out pretty fast to just avoid getting hit and hit the baddies! I had issues getting the "grab" ability to work consistently and it took a minute to figure out it only worked on certain enemies. Overall though, I had a good time

The grabbing and throwing mechanics really surprised me, kicking enemies around was a great experience. Nice game overall.

Interesting game which reminds me of super dodgeball for the NES but with adventure flare. It would have been cool if there was a consecutive combo that created a super move. Good job. I enjoyed it
