What a cool game! The animation i really well-done, and the style of the character really reminds me of the ghouls and ghosts games of old. The the controls are super responsive, and it was a blast to be able to explore up to the fifth floor and fight the onslaught of monsters! Great game, congratulations guys!
Thank you for the encouraging comment! We really enjoyed watching you play the game!
No problem! I'm glad you created the game in the first place! I look forward to see what you guys do in the future! :D
