Don't you have any plans to launch mobile version(i.e. iOS & Android)? IMHO, This game is too good to be free(or not making any in-app advertising revenue) .
I think controlling with both keyboard and mouse feels a little bit tricky. It's kinda hard to control direction and timing at the same time. Maybe would be better if I can attack with keyboard also and attack direction is automatically decided with what I'm facing. So using mouse might be optional and depends on the user's preference.
Nice job on winning 1st place for graphics and 7th for gameplay. It was a fun, and super cute game. Love the 8bit graphics and the 8 bit graphics icon for the game. Controls were a little difficult at times, like I'd press left, but still be hitting right (could just be my dodgy playing). But it was really fun, and managed to get a couple of levels in. We played it for the GitHub Game Off live stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1712466363
Cool! Thanks for giving it a try.
Congratulations for being awarded 1st place in the Graphics category!
