Thank you Helper man !! :D

I like to give a lot of health pick up to the player, it allows me to have the max health relatively low and have the player in danger of losing with an action they can do to not die (destroy a carrot box) and still having the game relatively easy enough for a jam game. Also gives something to pickup since I don't really have currency or any progression item in the game.

I do agree the chases are a bit bland. The Boss who already doesn't have a lot of possible actions can't do 2 more in chases, being the horizontal movement and the big red beams (cause it could lead to unavoidable hits), so they mostly go up and down and shoot some projectiles. I tried to spice it up with some enemy spawn and some platforming, I probably should've exaggerated the enemy spawn (at least the level 2 chase) so it feels more like a fight with the enemy where the Boss is fleeing. The very first chase is kind of a tutorial for the combat, so I wanted it to be easy, but I should probably have made it shorter since it's super easy and it's the first time you fight the Boss and might not give the best first impression.

As for aircontrol, I set it to 0.95 which is ALMOST like on the ground, but not 100%, you have an eye Wesley haha. I tweaked it when there was only the platforms and nothing to avoid or jump over and it felt right at the moment, but I didn't think to revisit it later. It could've been a good thing to have more control when having to dodge thousands of projectiles while jumping over some damage zone in an auto scrolling camera 😅

Thank you for playing my game !! 🙏
