Hi there, thanks for playing and for your comment! Regarding your points, I'm aware of #1 and #2 and will be working to fix them on my next build. #3 is all about those hitboxes, need to tweak those. I'm glad you enjoyed the game! Stay tuned for more future updates!
Regarding Ori and the Blind Forest, I actually started playing it here recently and loved it! I'll definitely be taking some notes from it as I work my way through it.
