P.S: Game jam being game jam so instead of three levels and full story we managed to make only one level abruptly ending at "To be continued".

So... Maybe this counts as MVP, heh.

love the art stile (anime fan here) but i seem to have found an invincibility bug when i dropped to like probably 1% health (barely alive)i died but i did not restart? and just continued? idk if this is a part of the game but it did not seem like it and i had no life point left and i was invincible. got some screen shot if it helps. love the game and keep it up.
