Thanks so much!
This was my first try at something like this. I had more plans, but then it was crunch time to get the basic mechanics half functional, haha.
This is good feedback. Thanks for the tips. I'm just getting started, and so it's good to know what to look out for from experienced folks here. I may tinker more with this after the game jam rating is done. :)
I just saw a little of your game, haven't tried it out yet, but it looks fantastic. Probably gonna check it out this weekend.
