Thanks for all the wonderful feedback! I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far.
I might've taken the whole Labyrinth theme a little too far on the 2nd stage you're right. Maybe checkpoints would be in order for longer levels because I can sympathize with how brutal losing to the boss might be and having to do it all again.
The boss of the 3rd stage, Descent, was pretty much intentionally designed to be annoying :D. Before I changed the attack animations they would specifically stand JUST out of range of attacks. The time until they attack is random each time, so you have to rely solely on reaction speed, which I admit is really tight and makes them, in my opinion, the hardest boss.
The adds in the final boss fight don't give XP, if you're referring to the blue text that pops up when you digest them, that's the Calories they are worth for the Weight Gain system if you have it enabled. Scrolling text for XP might be nice though and I might add that.
I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting people to grind levels in the game after they had finished it, but it seems quite a few people did which makes me glad :D. But I didn't really put much thought into methods to farm XP.
That action lock glitch with the repeated actions is one that's been plaguing me for a while now, it'll happen occasionally when inputting parry and another action in some peculiar timing. I've never been able to do it consistently but I'm hoping my next update will finally be the one that pins it down for good.
Thanks for the kind words! And I appreciate long comments, to me it means that you care about the game, and that's a good feeling.

Sorry about that, I thought I had but I must have forgotten to save it!
It's been updated and should work now.

Only those 2 for now with more planned to be added as I complete the sprites

I had an epiphany after reading your post and I've made an update to include belly rubbing.

I'm glad you're enjoying it!
I would like to do something like that, but spritework is my weakness and I find it hard to make new player animations, so maybe some day but no promises unfortunately.

Thank you for the crash report, it should be fixed in the new hotfixed version.
If you continue to get this crash please let me know how and when it happened.

The tutorial is very out of date for sure. It was made a long time ago when there were a lot fewer systems in the game and will be updated hopefully in the next update.
For now, if anything is still confusing you can try the separately downloaded guide.
