Addictive Little game, enjoyed it a lot! some tips: I think the players hitbox could be a bit bigger to incorporate the health/dash bars and legs of the character, when starting out i couldn't figure out why i was missing enemies..thanx for the game!

Cool game, I really like the art and movement feels super snappy. Just like Robber said, the hitboxes do indeed feel a bit off sometimes. The music was also amazing! Great job!

Nice concept, and congrats! I like that you are given plenty of options for progression in terms of skills. The arena style of gameplay works well, but I agree with Robber in that you could probably increase the size of the attack hitbox for the player. Overall, fun concept and I enjoyed playing!

Enjoyed your game! The drum n' chiptunes loop is great :smile_cat:

Perhaps you could mention `direction + spacebar` for dashing in the instructions.
Ran into the next scene not loading bug twice, that's too bad.. makes it hard to see more of your cool game!

Fun game, I had some issues with the dash attack. I think a small shadow on the floating enemies could give a better clue of deep, I keep doing the dash attack without hitting anything
