      Reminds me of being a kid and playing some of the first games I ever played on PS2 through demo disks. Some of the best video game fun I have had in years!

    I downloaded your game.
    I tried it.
    I thought it was a fun little melee combat game inspired by QWOP.
    I thought the Death Scythe Dude was the final boss, and that his weapon was chosen for its cheese level.
    Then I realized just how much thought was put into the way your inactive hand "helps" your main hand perform HEMA techniques, like when you go both hands limp into right hand thrustmode after initiating a strike to control your hips for a strong, shallow attack, or switch from left to right as your weapon connects for a power swing.
    Then I parried Death Scythe Dude's face in with Chivalry II-like finesse.
    Then I found a shortsword, and actually chambered the next AI who tried me.
    As someone who trains formally in German long sword, and trains informally in shaolinquan weaponry, this game is the closest I have come to feeling like I am sparring with someone at the guild!
    I clicked this video in the hopes that you devs would see this comment.
    Your studio is precious and must be protected at all costs.
    God fucking speed.
    I look forward to buying your game for all of my friends and booting up a parsec server the attosecond you drop Duel mode.

    If the multiplayer option is ever brought to the table by developers, its gonna be an atomic hit to say the least, something of a Mordhau/Chivalry successor, perhaps on a smaller scale though.
