woman :thumbsup: funky bounce is hard to time cuz of wobbly limbs

Seconding CyberWizard’s comment, the game was a lot of fun to play! I really love the idea behind it. The controls definitely took a bit of getting used to, but I found them quite manageable, and I appreciate that they allow for a bit of creativity with both movement and combat. I think with some more time and polish, this proof of concept could absolutely become a full-length game worth buying and playing, so great job to the entire team!

The game was really fun! The combat and movement mechanics were really cool to learn and play with! It's a bit rough around the edges but I think the concept was really cool, one minor suggestion I'd like to mention is that I think it would be cool if both hands shot off first before the legs so that you can keep your movement for longer. All and all a very cool project though
