I feel like there should be more player feedback, like sound effects or flashes. Loads of these jam games lack it for some reason. Unfortunately this game doesn't play as well as it looks. (sorry if that sounds harsh haha)

Thank you for the feedback! Sound is definitely something we wanted to add, but we didn't have time to find or create appropriate sounds. I think you're right, a visual effect, especially when enemies and the trees are hit, would have definitely improved the game's overall feel.
Personally speaking, as the game's programmer, I think it's easy to underestimate the importance of those details when you're trying to add all of your desired features under a deadline.
The artist of our team actually had some visual effect assets prepared that I was unfortunately unable to implement in time! Don't want to let that happen again!
