Summarise your game!
Physics-based arcade game where you play as an arrow aiming for freedom. Shoot as far as possible, use earnings to upgrade your bow, arrow, and flight mechanics. Complete the ultimate challenge by circling back to hit the shooter in a 100-meter loop!

Controls:

Space: Adjust angle, power, and shoot.
Mouse: UI controls/Upgrades shop

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
The theme "You are the weapon" is central to The Arrow. In the game, the player embodies the arrow itself, striving to break free from the shooter. The ultimate goal of circling back to hit the shooter ties directly to the theme, as the arrow reclaims its independence.

Solid, fun flyer. This was a good execution on a classically fun idea. I think the theming was right on. Immediately got so into it. Good work!

Nice simple game :)

I love that you included upgrades - sadge that it's so short ;). Gaphically there's a room for improvements ;)
There're some issues with rendering - sometimes background is on/off and other elements flicker.

Overall nice submission and hope to see improved, fixed and extended version of the game ;)

Thanks so much for playing and for your feedback! I really appreciate it. 

This was my first experience in game development, and I’m really enjoying the journey.
