The graphics are good, gameplay wise I have no idea how to attack with a melee weapon, only one ranged weapon that after being used once is gone and you can't pick it back up and the boomerang cannot be aimed. It needs a lot more work on the gameplay

Thank you, Evilous. Looks like every time I'm about to comment on someone's game your comment is already there lol.
Would you mind giving it a second go? There is actually a normal ranged attack, but you can use it only in the air (yeah I know, tutorial, explanations, but it's my first game and I didn't want to hold people's hands to see what was obvious and what wasn't).
On keyboard it should be something like Q or W. (no melee weapon btw). I recommend a controller, because the gameplay intention is to keep the player jumping constantly (yeah, I know. unusual).
I think it's really weird and not too fun to play. So the Q button has the Shrunkin, which I mentioned before, but it only attacks when jumping. And the weird boomerang is still extremely hard to use but it has a weird teleport? It's really weird and I wish that was at least controlled in the air or something. And then the bird shows up without any way to fight it and I just die.
Hahaha I appreciate your feedback and I will look into it. The boomerang may become controllable in the future, but for now it is meant as a vertical attack against flying enemies that I didn't have time to implement. The sad part is that you had no fun though. I guess it is a price I have to pay for making something neither intuitive nor relatable. Thank you very much for giving it a second go, it means a lot to me.
