I went through the big outside door, and since you can't go back I assume it's the end of this version.

Every part of the game looks pretty good including the attack animation, I discovered the change of colour of the flame by accident, it's cool. The music is cool too. The field of view is good and movement is a bit slow but would feel good if it simply went a bit faster. It's hard to judge combat as it's no fair fights.

The game is lacking a pew pew sound as you pew pew ;) . Also pressing Space more times than the required amount of attacks to kill an enemy leads to the screen blinking the number of exceeding times and then if you walk into another fight before it finished then the game freezes, I guess it's not big deal once you're aware.

I'll play more of this if the enemies ever fight back.
