its all good! its a lesson everyone learns in their first jam aha, I remember similar stuff with my first jam game aha- (mechanics didnt even fully work cause I was too ambitious ;-;)
and hey, I always respect custom animations! When I mean funky I just meant more play too slow yknow? just remember animations should compliment the action, otherwise it gets too floaty or just doesnt feel right, but props to you for even doing that, be proud you managed to do so much work in such a short time <3
best thing for future, and what I learnt is that always prioritize the needs first, then the fancy when you can! that way you at least have a good foundation! and if you manage some fancy, even better, if not, oh well, as long as the game is fun you'll do well! Still you did a good job!
