Great game, really like the atmosphere, art and music. Controls are a bit confusing, but once I figured them out it was really fun.

Hey Codoor!
Thank you so much for playing and streaming our game! To watch someone play it was invaluable, and good fun! One of the most important lessons we take away from this jam is to include some sort of tutorial when the mechanics are not obvious. We've done what we could to make it easier to grasp quicker by rewriting our description, but there should definitely have been an in-game tutorial, or at least something to explain how to get back to the roof tops or how and where to fly to display the gold glints.
You also guessed the controls were unintentionally difficult and by that you're right. Magpie shouldn't be able to do such sharp turns, and I've also noticed this issue when I've played it here on itch, but I didn't experience it in Unity. Perhaps there is an issue with mouse sensitivity, but this is something I need to look up next time.
Many thanks again for giving it the many chances you gave it, and I'm very glad you enjoyed it in the end! :D
