Slash Slash Execution

About

In this game you are a sword-wielding player against numerous gun-wielding enemies.  You must get up close and strike, in order to initiate combat. 

Combat takes place as a four-column rhythm system.  The precision of your timing affects how you'll do.  Precise timing in the attack column ensures maximum damage dealt, and precision in defence means you stay healthy.

If you die/win the game will reset (winning comes with a short delay to celebrate your victory).
