This has so much potential!
This game, I believe could be really good... If all of those you mentioned in your comments were to be implemented.
I must say though, because you can't win or lose, its not really much of a game as of now.
Pros:
-Walking around slicing enemies has always been fun, IMO!
-The platforming is done well! (Especially the ones moving up and down)
-This game brings a wierd satisfaction when killing the enemies... (The way they are sliced apart give a pretty rewarding sensation) - Improve on that by adding a SFX when them enemies die. (E.g. A grotesque scream... hehe)
Cons:
-No gameplay... (Of course, I understant that this is just a demo for college)
-Enemies need to land, of course...
Conclusion:
Thats pretty much all there is man, the game has a lot of potential.
It reminds me of those old addicting NES type platformers, which I enjoy.
You are on the right track as of now man and all I could say is to keep going, do everything you said in your comments, re-release this game here, and blow us away...
