Hoof

Imprisoned for years by an evil cult and transformed into a hideous beast through the use of ritual magic, you've finally broken free, the cult is pissed, and you, you are Hoof.

Manage your stamina, master your moveset and perfect the art of crowd control to stay alive. Fight endlessly growing hordes of enemies, can you make the leaderboard? 

Controller highly recommended. You might need to use DS4Win for Playstation controllers (or add Hoof to steam as a non steam game and enable steam input)
