#update #feature #bugfix
Lots of general polishing in this update! These changes put the game in a state where I am proud to put it on my resume (hi, Game Companies!). It is stable and much less buggy, with proper win and fail conditions and some more interesting gameplay.
* NEW telekinesis powers. One power to pick up objects and have them follow your mouse, flinging them around the screen, and another power to grab up to 3 objects with your mind using the F key, making them orbit/follow your character until you launch them with X, dealing damage to enemies based on object velocity. This addition is a welcome bit of player agency in the moment-to-moment gameplay that was missing before.
* game over screen on death and win screen upon defeating Bahram, the ogre boss
* controls shown in the corner of the HUD
* can win when killing boss and end game when health to 0
* fixed jittery camera movement
