Fantastic job guys! Super juicy mechanic with the sword, I had a lot of fun :)

Really cute, I love the frog outfit the character is wearing and the pretty flowers! :D The dialogue is fun and I really enjoyed talking and flying with a sword!

Found a talking flying sword,
Was told I'm stupid,
Flew away,
Gathered some plants for my collection,
Except Terry, that guy's invincible.
10/10

- Mouse and keyboard is actually fine (at least for someone who played dark souls with m&k)
- Love the sword flying, the platform design is cool, I feel like a pro gamer.
- Sword hitbox is a bit clunky, its a bit hard to cut many plants at once.
- The regeneration could kick in earlier, sometimes I just wanted to get back to it but had to wait for the meter to regenerate.
- At some point I tried looking for secrets by flying off the path, and got stuck in the gray abyss and had to restart from the beginning.
- Managed to land on the edge of a few platforms, you can get out though so its not a huge deal.

Controls better on controller than mouse and keyboard! Some notes:

  • 3D environment was impressively huge and decorated
  • Main character looked and animated awesomely
  • I would often kill flowers accidentally without talking to them 😩
  • Having to wait for energy to refill was tedious. Would anything break if you just instantly refilled it when you set foot on the ground? also if swinging the sword didn't cost energy? If there was any combat/enemies I didn't get far enough to experience it. Swinging could also be on a different button than the dash so that there's no lil delay when using the dash ability which you have to constantly use
  •  I had no bugs at all except for a small collision detection one when landing on the edge of a tiny platform. Good job!
  • Music was cool

    Awesome job! 🙌
