Thanks for the geedback! I'm really glad you enjoyed my game, though I do agree that the animation could've been shorter. I just wanted to really emphasize it, but maybe it was a bit much.

I think it's a really nice touch actually, but maybe setting it so it only happens once with the long animation puts a ton of emphasis, then once that's "flipped" having it swap to a shorter one for every time after that would increase ease of use without taking away that initial "wow" moment of introducing the mechanic!
Excited to see what else you make btw!
