The boomerang must loop back to the player. You get punished by dropping the boomerang.

It took me a while to figure out the controls of the boomerang, because it didn't understand that you can basically drag him around. But once I figured that out I really enjoyed it and I think it's really fun game mechanic. I like it when you as a player can take risks like that (letting the boomerang fly for longer)
I have no idea how the boomerang works and couldn't get it to come back to me. I really like the idea and think it just needs some more attention to the boomerang mechanic.
I should have clarified somewhere, its controlled by clicking and holding the mouse, when the mouse is held it will lock onto the mouse position. I made this choice to allow the player to be able to fire and control it on demand or just let it fly in whatever direction it was heading.
Thanks for the feedback though, I was learning Godot while I made this and while I'm decent at programming I'm not a game developer, so stuff like this helps a lot.
