yeah I've had a few people now say they had difficulties with the timing of the sword hits which is something I truly didn't expect tbh, though I think that it would be agains the nature of the jam to make the window bigger rn :P
and when it comes to the audio mixing: I agree it's messy, the whole idea to add cutscenes was super last minute so I just threw it together best I could in a short time. It works but it's far from ideal imo
