Awesome idea, I see a lot of potential in these mechanics, the only thing that felt weird is having to hold down shift to perform moves, but that might be just me, I got the hang of it after a while.
Glad you enjoyed it and yeah it's not just you, i'm already working on better controls for the after jam version, I added these controls as a temporal thing but in the end I didn't have enough time to work on some better ones.
