So cute, I really liked the sprites! It was quite a fun game to play, quite challenging! I felt I couldn't jump high enough though, the bats are so high up!

 Cool concept, one of the few games I've played in this jam that is skill based, and you feel yourself getting a lot better at the mechanic the more you play. The art, while being simple, has a nice feel to it.

One thing that helped a lot was going fullscreen. In windowed mode I was getting frustrated due to my mouse cursor constantly going out of the game area.

This is so satisfying to play! You could turn this into a really addicting mobile game, reminds me of some I played as a kid.

I really like your presentation art and the aesthetic of the game. I wish I could jump higher to get enemies who are completely out of reach.

Complements to my art skills mean a lot to me :)

I did a bad job explaining the game mechanics in the game/page description, but you actually have infinite mid-air jumps! I'll be sure to create better tutorials for my future games.

Oh! I did not even understand that you can dash in the air,  until I read the comments. I think you could add upon this game very well with things like a stomp attack, when you are in the air etc. Very cool.

Thank you telling me about your experience! I realize now that I neglected any form of instruction or tutorial. I slapped a .gif of gameplay in the description as a band-aid solution

I also appreciate your ideas on how to improve the game -- it gives me direction on what mechanics are fun/should be focused on.

The Gif is perfect, even shows that you can kind of groundpound, I didnt even think of that.

Controls felt a tiny bit clunky, but i liked the visuals

Would have been cool, if maybe time slowed down when aiming the attack, to allow some more precise mid air combos

I appreciate the suggestion! It makes me want to experiment with a game focused on combos and juggling

This is fantastic! The art style is super cute, the SFX and music fit the energy really well, and I had a blast playing it! I'm glad you added a feature to invert the controls -that really helped a lot with handling. Gotta say - being able to just catapult into the air towards an enemy is very satisfying. Great work!
