Sticky Sword Stick Man
Lore
You are a trained warrior with a sword that can chop down any enemy.
Unfortunately, you can't keep your sword clean and your enemies keep sticking to it.
Controls
WASD to move.
J and L to swing your sword.
Gameplay
Spoiler on some of the details of the mechanics if the game didn't explain it well enough.
----
Whenever your sword is green, enemies will stick to it, other enemies will stick to those enemies, and so on and so forth.
Whenever your sword is grey (usually from cleaning it with water), enemies will die when hit by it and enemies that are stuck to it.
Whenever your sword hits a water drop, it will clean and go to grey. Enemies stuck won't unstick.
Bombs can explode some of the enemies stuck to your sword in a specific way (to avoid any weird interactions. Sorry).
Bullets that come from enemies stuck to your sword can deal damage to enemies and you.

This is a very interesting concept and it is very well executed. I'd love to see this mechanic adapted into some sort of puzzle game where you have to stick enemies to your sword in specific ways to complete certain objectives? I also think the water should keep your sword clean for a bit longer because I feel I have to frantically grab water and swing at whatever I can, only to end up with a saw blade on the end of my sword! Great game nonetheless, keep up the good work!
