Very fun game! Really cool mechanics and well paced levels, I really enjoyed it!
No way!!! I am so glad to hear that! Much appreciated man!!
just played, was really fun!!
Thanks so much!!
Thanks for the support!
At first I thought it would be a sort of simple game since I saw this was a first game but wow really solid job felt like a full game and had a lot of fun, you should build on this and add more levels maybe a hard mode and if you learn more do some creatures that have complex movesets like a enemy that can deflect projectiles back and has a weak point or something and weaknesses I also think you should make the minimize feature last shorter as a way to add more tension when trying to dodge. Hopefully you build on it more cause I would honestly love a update! Great work man keep it up!
Wow thanks what a review!

Thanks! Glad you got a laugh from it hahah
