The gameplay is pretty fast paced, and I like the idea of poisoning enemies, but something about it didn't feel great (fun for a minute or two, but not great), I'm not sure if it is the number of enemies swarming you, or the limited variety of attacks available to control the swarm.
Maybe if there are different types of poison attack that are provided pick up items or something like this, like an attack that does area of effect poison in an explosion, or an attack that leaves a poison pool on the ground? I feel like you just need a way to control the swarm better, to make the melee and close encounters a bit more manageable.
Thanks for the game.
