Hi AggaZaw! Thank you so much for playing and for your feedback. I'm so happy to hear it's engaging and fun! :)

I'm glad because you said you want to keep trying despite getting stuck - I know what that can be like.

Your review is incredibly helpful to me because as a developer, I sometimes struggle with conveying the mechanics in a way that is intuitive to the player. So I really appreciate that you reached out!

By the character with the unusual appearance, you probably mean Alice - she's the boss character.

You can keep trying on your own, or alternatively, here's some advice on how to beat her:

• it's important to note that she has 2 phases: regular Alice, and Chaos Alice. She switches between them every 5-7 seconds or so. Chaos Alice is faster, invincible and does a lot more damage, she's the one who is a black shadow with a wide grin. You will hear the ticking of a clock while she's in this form - run away (holding the shift button) around her until she becomes normal Alice again and you can hurt her.

• remember to avoid the white arms if your health is low

• regular Alice has a lot of HP but is weak. You  can theoretically beat her at Level 1 (I've done so during playtesting) but to make it a bit easier you can level up first.

• you can get some more experience points by killing butterflies, as well as Humpty Dumpties once you're a bit stronger (the egg creatures near the edge of the cliff) while continuing to heal up at the points of light regularly when your HP gets low.

• face her by jumping down the ledge once you're ready

• the white arms in the bottom level marked "???" are enemies that are about as strong as the butterflies, but they give more experience points. You can try to avoid Alice and kill them to level up some more if you notice that she's still too strong.

I hope this helped a bit! ♥

I'll try to make the gameplay more intuitive in the future.
