Fun game! I feel like this would be a lot of fun to play head-to-head against another player with some tweaking and balancing. I think the buffs/debuffs could have been more powerful. Makes me think of what other kinds of powerups you could include: one that makes your jumps heavier/lighter or even lets you fly around, maybe one that gives you a larger attack hitbox or maybe one that makes you completely invulnerable. Great job with this!

Hi SzechuanSteve!
Those are all excellent ideas and I will be revisiting this post when designing the larger game. I can't wait to make and implement the head-to-head gameplay!
Those are some awesome ideas for powerups. I did think of invulnerability but ended up scrapping it, ironically for what I perceived to be balance issues. I love the jumps heavier/lighter idea, and flying is excellent too! I am very grateful for your suggestions. Thank you so much for playing!
Best,
