Once I knew what I was doing, it was nice, but it took a lot of trial and error.  The movement of left and right is very floaty, so I constantly need to over correct to get close to what I need to hit, often leaving me out of range to hit them, or running into them before I get a chance to attack.

Also, while the description of your game helps explain the keys to use, it doesn't explain how. all the arrow keys are listed as movement even though only left and right actually move you. it also doesn't explain that while using the keys chooses the attack direction,  it doesn't make it clear that you need to keep holding those keys to attack that way, and not that it's just the last one you used, but also that you can use an up or down with a left or right to aim diagonally. Lastly just not knowing I needed to attack the enemies to stay up was pretty confusing, one because when you first press space, there's no indication of using an attack to launch yourself up, so I thought instead I was missing what key to press to stay up, second because you only stay up if the enemy is below you, so there's not much use for trying to attack any direction other than down. 

Your game would have really benefited from more instructions, not just in the game description on the website, but since it's a game you have to download, you aren't necessarily playing on the page with the controls listed, so the game itself only lets you know you can use space.

That being said, the graphics are lovely and the music and sounds are fitting. Having the arrow keys for attack direction and some movement does fit for multiuse, and the fire works for turn up the heat, it's just the controls are difficult to figure out, and then use even once you know how they work.

I agree that there is not any in game instruction, which is a problem. I plan on reviewing these comments and making a version 2 so anyone in the future can have a more seamless experience playing this game. In general, all the issues are fixable so I shouldn't have too much of a problem adjusting.  I really appreciate the insightful comment.
