Hey there, i played your game, i really loved it! I'm not very good at these type of games but they are super fun to play! I loved the graphics! Keep up the awesome work!! 

Loved the creepy atmosphere and the dark design. A great demo.

I had a go of the demo.  Love the visuals and atmosphere.  Love the concept of the game too.  The shooting feels good.  My main complaint is the parry window is way too short, and not noticeable enough.  I'd also think about giving out some more arrows.  Keen to try your next demo!

Looks great!

Gave it a go, my feedback (and eventual skills) / criticisms and suggestions provided below. I could see potential in it

This is really excellent! I love the slow paced movement and atmosphere. Got Bloodborne and Thief vibes from the environment. It's brutally difficult too, but feels like I could get better with practicing. Does the violin stinger hit right when I should parry? May be worth having that audio cue a fraction before so that players have a little extra time to react (unless it's already before and my reaction times are just terrible these days XD ). 

Also brilliant work on the music. The dark undulating strings really sell the tension. The procedural maps don't feel too rigid and will add a lot of replayability.

I can't praise this enough. Added to steam wishlist and I will be keeping a close eye on this one. Great work!

Thank you so much! <3

What do you mean procedural? 

I mean semi-randomly generated within a set of guidelines.
