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.
