Great Game, under many aspects

Great game, overall.
Graphics: 8 - character/enemies are very well drawn, and the blue light effect on the sword swing is just awesome! decent backgrounds that could be more polished and varied
Style: 10 - style is, well... very stylish (in a sort of "ancient japan"-ish way)
Sound: 8 - the idea of singing birds as background is simply ingenious, but then again, some music comment in the intro or in given moments of the game (e.g. before a boss fight) would have added a lot
Violence: 8 - just the right amount of it
Interactivity: 10 - controls are very smooth and accurate, you did a very good job here

Suggestions for improvement:
1. it was a bit short, make it longer!

2. it was too easy to beat... you have a really good control system, now develop more effective enemies' AI with blocks or dodging ability

3. with all this "style" in place there's no story, just a guy fighting. develop a story around your game: part of it should unfold during the game itself.

Needs more variety

It's good, but I need some variety to the moves I can use, I'm jsut running around and constantly hitting the a button. There's no reason to do anything more than button mash and it was just a little too slow to really work for that. if I could have a couple new moves, some real combos and maybe a block, it would be far more interesting.

Excellent

The game was good overall the best part about it would obvisously be the graphics I am in love with that little blue streak that the sword leaves after you swing very smart idea. The sound was bar none also in my opinion it was a good idea not to put music in. Although the controls were solid they were missing something like a super move or what not of that nature. It got a little repetitive also. If you could somehow make a sequal and change these things then you would have a better game.

Stylishhhh.....

Wow. That was awesome. I could hear the footsteps of my enemies. The graphics are great, there is no crappy music playing all the time, just the sounds of the environment. Just...Can`t find anything bad in it. Except no blood...
