I'll upload the other version when the jam is over. I tried a couple things to get a satisfying yet playable progression, but in the end nothing felt as good as just not having one. I don't know, there's just something about how obnoxiously simple it is :D
I also think that there's just this sweet spot, where it's small enough that it's dumb and annoying, but not so small that it becomes too frustrating (at least for me :D)
