The dashing felt nice! Would love to see what you'd add if you got more time.

Thanks

The dash-shoot mechanic is sooo cool. I think this mechanic on its own could fuel full fletched game!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback,  I appreciate that you like it!

Spent way too long in the first room before I figure out that there were doors. The sound effects got very annoying very fast. It's a cool concept though!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, what was it exactly that you found out annoying about the sounds, is it the shooting or something else? I'll try applying a fix after the game jam.

When the character walks around it does a clicking noise like a clock winding up and it happens really quickly and gets kind of annoying

Developer

Yeah It just happens in the submission in itch not when i build locally sadly!
