  • An interesting concept held back by the controls. While the game was fun to play once the controls worked, transforming into various objects and being flung into enemies. Making the controls function was half the challenge, between the left click aiming reticle not giving enough time to aim and misfiring or just canceling the attack. Or the right click cannonball not working as the mouse would just pull other pc functions. The ui for the crystals health was also hard to read, and keep track of. Adding the same stylized text font found through out and making a mini health bar would improve the readability. The pixel art was cute and really well done, even the basic animations. The GDD while not being in depth does list the core concept and mechanics in detail. Overall a solid start, Keep making cool games!

Art is nice but its exreamly hard to play.

i dont know if its intended but the arow transformation does not last for longe and realy slow

i would recomend makeing the arow move faster  and also be abole to hit more then one target before turning back.

this game have grate potantiol and im looking forward to see if youre team will work more on it after the jam
