haha yeah the bonk on the head is pretty good.
A lot of things like that in this game just fell into place vs hours of tweaking. I got really lucky and think I was blessed by the game dev gods.
The principle more is less didn't apply to the SFX or VFX, I just kept layering on more sounds and more of everything and it just got more satisfy each time but it didnt seem like my own judgement, more like "yea more squelches" that'll do it haha
Using the classic 0.2f as a value all over the place vs testing to try and get something better.
Just lucky and knowing when something made it worse.
Thanks for the playing and feedback and good luck in the Jam!
