Thank you for the feedback! Yeah, a couple other people suggested I have a little bit of guidance or direction. I don't even think the code would even be that difficult, I just totally forgot to do it! I'm definitely going to update the game with everyone's suggestions after the jam because I'm a perfectionist...
Viewing post in Jack and The Dark (Jam Version) jam comments
It shows on the polish of your game that you're a perfectionist, but don't feel too bad about the hints! It's a game jam so by definition the development is done in a hurry and you can only squeeze in a little playtesting and feedbacks, if any. You can always do an update, fix bugs, etc. and release it. (I personally prefer to keep the original version and add a "jam version" to its title and upload the updated one as a separate game, but I've seen several games in this jam that were updated during the voting - some game jams disqualify entries if that happens.)
