This is super fun, and the music is really good, too! I just have one complaint: Why does the dash send you in the direction you’re aiming and not the direction you’re moving? Enter the Gungeon has the exact same control scheme, but the dash change makes this game quite prone to errors.

Thank you!! Really appreciate the response and feedback!!
Highly agree that the dash is not intuitive since it happens in the direction of cursor as opposed to how games normally do it. We brought up and discussed this very issue and decided to leave it in as a learning curve since -
1. 8-directional dash is not as precise in a game with only 1 hp and no i-frames
2. It felt important that the decision to present it as a challenging speedrun required it to have the precise cursor dash as a movement tool to accurately position for beam gun and shotgun shots to instantly clear waves
Feel free to respond with a comment/feedback we would love to hear your thoughts on the matter
Once again, thank you for playing our game!!!!
