Like the game, controls are not well-chosen

Plays quite well, although the movement of our protagonist is a bit too fast. However, the controls kinda kill it for me. Why did you choose A+D incombination with the left shift? Why not use arrows and/or A/D and either shift? That way I can use both hands.

All good points!

I think I chose those controls because I've been playing a lot of Rogue Legacy 2.  After the game jam ratings are over, I'm going to clean this project up a bit. First priorities are - add more control layouts, controller support, fix some minor bugs, main menu.

Later on, I want to support custom key mapping for actions and stuff. But that's a bit more work

I enjoyed the game, I liked the art style and music a lot. I think the game is a bit too hard (maybe its supposed to be) I got the Glitched Hat after failing that last hard jump 10-20 times. Then I fell at the next part and would be forced into doing that jump again, it was a bit frustrating. I wonder if the Glitched Hat could somehow help with that jump to reward the player more and feel like you are getting stronger. I thought the controls were fine for me. Overall I like the game :]
