About the Game: (From the game’s Steam Page)
All your actions and the actions of your enemies are tied to the beat of the music. In this 90’s retro shooter inspired game, your enemies will perform actions in rhythm to an epic rock opera, while your Valkyrie is able to jump, dash, rocket jump, and bunny hop their way to evade their attacks.
Reaching the end of a randomly generated dungeon is your singular goal. Along the way, you get to collect different weapons, abilities, and items with each repetition of the journey. The gear you pick up will radically alter the way you play the game, ensuring a different experience every single time.
Battle your way through 7 bosses to reach the final boss. The bosses move and attack in certain patterns. Figure out how they move, and use that information to your advantage.
