I enjoyed the demo, has kind of a Golden Axe vibe to it. The music decent but got a little repetitive. By the end of the demo, the game had slowed to an absolute crawl. I noticed it getting progressively more sluggish as I went a long. Not sure what caused that.

This has the makings of a fun brawler. I wonder who will be the first to release a full, belt-scrolling brawler out of GB Studio???

I think it might be a combination of jump, jump attack, and screen scrolling causing a looping issue. With the Chromatic, I can force the slowdown doing that, but it shouldn't continue throughout all parts of the stage. I know the browser version does some funny stuff. IDK.

Thanks for playing. I also would like to be the first. That sounds like a fun achievement.
