Made me lost my way in the game. Love the choice of the background music. I don't know what does skill 1 & 3 when toggled on. I only manage to find out about skill 2 which gives me boost in speed in the direction of only south-west. Also took me a while to use the Z key to shake the floor to open up paths to get myself astrayed in. Unfortunately, I do not like being unable to skip the introduction scene whenever I want to retry the game. Well done!

PathAstray is a simple 2D run and gun platformer

+ I like the dash mechanic implemented in the game, a unique approach makes this game faster-paced than other platformers in the gamejam. 
+ Some special effects of the game is well done, which improves the overall look and feel of the game
+ There is a basic combat system implemented with non 1-shot enemies

- If there is a storyline or a goal in this game, I did not understand it as i did not complete the game and got lost (literally).
- Without a clear goal or a storyline, it feels like this game is a run and gun sandbox.
