cool game, but the boss fight with the vampire is very shit. cool attacks, but the one where he transforms into multiple bats and flys across the screen is impossible to dodge. you get so so so little reaction time to dodge when your on the left or right. and since its rng based, you would have to get a run that didnt have him doing that attack or just getting extremely lucky.

Congratulations - You have recently died!
Probably not the first thing you want to hear waking up in the underworld, but hey, it's the truth.
But what if someone told you that you could escape the underworld by killing Death himself?
Fight through the underworld through waves of demons and five bosses in this bullet-hell twin-stick shooter!
You'll be going up against:
The Deathkin: Those who wander The Graveyard in hope that they will one day usurp Death.
Calurad: Vampiric emperor who rules over his manor.
Beelzebub: The one who sits upon his molten throne in The Depths of The Underworld
...And Death himself.
Made in 8 days for the Bullet Hell Jam 2022:
The theme for the jam is "Confined", and in this game you are "confined" to what areas you can get to (because you are literally just a skull). Other ideas of the theme are also incorporated, such as the Deathkin boss confining you to one area.

Because I don't have a mouse I have to click on my desktop which is INFURIATING, since there is no aim assist for the skull, I miss the teleportation thing 98% of the time, the easiest thing in my opinion is shooting the bones. To give you how hard this is without aim assist for the skull on a windows laptop where you have a 10 centimeter area to click, THE BEST ATTEMPT FOR THE FIRST BOSS "Da PumpKing" was 1/4 of it's health down, which sounds good but I only got that once due to having good rng with the boss's attacks. Good game, hard to play with a mouse or aim assist
Crying as we speak!! I choose to upsurp Death when I meant to do the other one LOL! This game was super fun and challenging. I love the grappling mechanic. Never seena game bassed off of that. I like that you have 3 health only and it resets on the next level. The bossess are good too and each was different! Music is good too and I like the style of it. I wish to see more like these!
very well made game, although I wish i knew i could just hold down left click instead of spamming it. maybe i would have not spent 3 hours on it then
Great game! I love the music and the gameplay, I do have to say though the bosses were quite easy, but overall, a fantastic game :D Keep on making great games!
