here are my thoughts:
- the art style's very nice and unique - fun to see a game jam game that's not pixel art!
- the movement back-and-forth across the map means that the game gets to feel very repetitive after a while. maybe this could fixed by adding more interesting obstacles, but idk.
- the feet are very easy to avoid, once you get the hang of the dash mechanic. you can basically just spam dash and stop if a leg is about to come down in front of you.
- the dash button is in a weird spot. i understand the idea of using one hand on WASD and the other on J, but maybe it would have been easier to use shift or even left click, since most people navigating to your game will already have one hand on the mouse and one on the keyboard.
- in the same way, needing to use the keyboard to navigate the menu is a little unintuitive at first, but i think it's fine since you only use the keyboard to control the game anyway.
overall though, really nice work, can't wait to see what you make in the future!
