I enjoyed it for what it was. I'd love to see this get expanded into a full game, especially if there's more platforming involved.

That's definitely the plan!
Cool. For some reason, using z, x, & c for dash, attack, & jump respectively messes with me. Maybe, if space was jump?
Other than that, this would be a cool full game.

Yeah, some people have voiced concerns with the controls. The idea was to emulate a 3-button Sega Mega Drive/Genesis gamepad, and I personally liked having all three buttons right next to each other with that in mind, but perhaps without that concept to ground you, they seem less intuitive.
Plugging in an Xbox gamepad will work, which might improve your experience. The full game will most likely have remappable controls. It's just a lot of work to implement and if I'm being honest I'm not sure how best to do it yet ^_^;;
good game its very moments of sega game
Controls are excellent and feels like a beautiful mix of Ninja Gaiden and Megaman. Will love to see where this project goes.
The visuals really take me back, you really nailed the look of the game, right down to the Revenge of Shinobi-esque boot up. The musics solid, the sprites are smooth, the game is a good deal of fun! Loved it!
