Thank you for playing the game! Balancing the game was definitely an issue, and accessibility was not top notch, I could have better indicated the health bar for sure, it started as placeholder because I had different plans for it in the future, but then I just kinda forgot about it ^^"
I do agree the upgrades feel disruptive but only really at the start I feel like, but you're right the game does take a good 20+ mins to finish, had I more time I would have wanted it to be around 10 mins!
Thanks for the feedback, I'll maybe try and expand the game post-jam!
