tysm, and glad ya liked it!
I'll admit that I definitely overtuned the difficulty ^^"
I think the best solution wouldve been to give more time for the player to counter (at least for the first boss), just to get them used to the flow. However, adding more hearts would be good too, since it gives the players more chances to learn what direction each hint is tied to.
Next time, I probably shouldnt assume that I'm having a hard time because of my own skill issues, lol. But still, glad you enjoyed it despite its hardcore difficulty!!
