Nice work! The movement and sword-swinging felt fun and weighty. I'd love to see this developed further.

I wasn't sure if it was intentional, but I liked the rollerskating movement mechanics the most out of this. Though, the Header of the game was the same as the game, I mistook it for the game itself, waiting and wondering why the game hasn't loaded yet lol
Thanks for trying our game! Yeah, the “floatiness” in the controls was intentional to make it feel a little less like you’re directly controlling the knight, since you’re supposed to be playing as the sword.
Good point about the banner, I can see how that could be confusing! We’ll see if we can make a clearer distinction between the banner and the game window on the page :D
Thanks for pointing out the banner thing! I've gone ahead and changed it so it looks less like the game window~
