Thank you very much for the great review. This aiming issue was something we saw during the jam, but we couldn't solve it in time, which would have eliminated other features and details that the game has. This is a problem that will be fixed as a priority.
Regarding enemies appearing out of nowhere, we thought about adding some effects that would show that the enemies would appear so many seconds after they did. I believe that this could alleviate the problem of not knowing where the enemies come from and not being able to position yourself in time.
Your idea of positioning the chick on the back or following only when you press a button is quite interesting. We will pay attention to your analysis.
