To be honest, I even thought about adding a dash but after some testing I realized it would cause issues with the enemy AI. I would either have to reduce the number of enemies or you would end up dashing into them. And since I had already finished and polished the code for everything when I thought about it, I figured it was better to just scrap the idea instead of creating something that could break the game.
In any case, thank you for the feedback. I'll test your game later.
