Very nice take on the theme. I also had the same idea at first (Mine was a spear) nut I ended up going for a different idea later.
The mechanic definitely has promise but there are a couple of problems I want to point out:
1. The dart can get stuck offscreen. Most of the time you'll be rolling a dice hoping to hit something offscreen. When you aim, you should move the camera a bit towrds the aim direction.
2. Losing the dart when hit was a good idea at first but more often then not it'll get stuck in spikes. A way to recall the dart would be nice. Maybe even add a leviathan axe style boomerang effect where it damages enemies before returning.
3. Aiming should be done with a mouse. Also, draw a line to show where you're aiming and where you might hit. This can easily be done with a line renderer.
3. There are no visible health point but you die in 3 hits.
4. The dagger is hard to locate on screen since it shares the same color as some of the elements in the level.

One Eyed WilsonGood design on the dagger teleport behaviour, i was happy to discover mid-air teleport.
Nice work ;)

Ether GenesisGood decision to make your character movement slow to encourage the use of the dagger! I feel like this would've benefited design-wise from a zoomed out screen where you can see everything, or just making sure the dagger is always onscreen. The first time I threw the dagger and it went immediately offscreen I wasn't sure if it still existed so it took me a bit to get going. Great art and clever concept :)

Silver ArrowNice game, this could probably be made into a real game. The dagger mechanic is very good, but the normal movement is too floaty. I also think dagger throw sound is too loud.

Detective OneVery cute puzzle platformer! More levels would bring tears of joy to my eyes. The movement was a little floaty, but other than that, I have no complaints. Great Job!

(UN)BreakableWow nice work looks very good! promising idea too. =) But needs some polish when jumping an teleporting + my dagger glitched sometimes out of the level

OneLifeOneMinuteOneBulletLovely, but over too quick. :] I really like how your momentum carries over when teleporting. The character anim is wonderfull too. Controls could use a bit of work, jumping and sharding at the same time can feel awkward.
