With proper graphics I can see this going somewhere. The theme is very reminiscent of Hotline Miami. I like the game mechanic of constantly losing health and healing by killing foes. The boss battles are too abrupt, the movement is way too fast, and I'm never sure if I'm actually doing any damage. It needs a lot of work but I'm sure it can be done.
In the first entry in the Experiment series, *Anger*** **is the prime focus of the game -- to evoke that emotion from the player.
All mechanics and visual and audio aesthetics of the game are geared towards evoking that specific emotion from the player without frustrating them.
This was made in 2 weeks and is a prototype. If I get a good,positive response from the players,I might make a proper game out of these mechanics.
So, if you enjoy the game leave behind a comment or a rating expressing what you liked and didn't like about the game.

"Heal or Hurt" Affinity** Tiles**
The game has a tile-system which depending upon its two affinities -- friend or enemy, can either heal or damage you. The affinity is dependent upon for how long it is occupied by the player or the enemy.
The more you stand on a particular tile, the more does its affinity lean towards you and the more it shall heal you.
Challenge Galore
On top of a constantly decreasing health, you also have to contend with a variety of enemies' attack that may not only interrupt your own attack but may also cause you to randomly drop weapons.
Every 30 seconds -- a boss steps into the arena, shifting the game into the "Boss Phase"
Boss Phase
In the boss-phase, it is a one-on-one against one of the three bosses in this prototype.
The tile-affinity system goes haywire and randomly changes affinity thus constantly forcing the player out of their "s
