It was just a case of "defend yourself until he changes form then draw one line; repeat". The difficulty overall was rather low, I think I got hit maybe five or six times throughout the whole game. On the plus side, though, I did play through the whole game - it's a fun little hour-waster, with a blend of mechanics I hadn't personally encountered before. The music in the main levels was fairly unobtrusive (I find I have almost no opinion on it, almost as if it was never there) but the boss music - while also fading the to background - has a nice strident sound to it right at the start, letting you know something more difficult that usual is coming up. All in all, I'd give it a 7.5/10. Nothing great, but worth playing if you've got a spare hour or so. Six levels, not five. ;)
