Also don't know if you've somewhat cheesed it with fast spinning and then great releases so your character just cleaned the whole board with little effort, so i would be grateful if you shared your strategy. Because spinning around makes you faster and now that i think of it, it could be somewhat exploited

For sure! For reference, I did not move the pivot points/add any extras. My strategy basically consisted of keeping the pigeons and squirrels at bay across the whole board as they are easily the hardest to deal with because of their speed. In fact, my one and only damage was to a pigeon lol. As for spinning, it really depended on how far they were to my spin point. If a big bunch was close, I would get super close to them and just spin, clearing out that section fast. You can also do wide arcs to clear multiple lanes at once.
Other than that I don't really think I developed a strategy, just swinging fast and keeping all the lanes relatively even instead of focusing on one at a time. I'd be happy to record some gameplay if that would help, like I said I really enjoyed this game and I would be happy to replay it especially if that would help balance :)
I think you might just have incredible reflexes then. I know of some strategies to hit the 4 starting points basically every time with a greatly released spin, but even then it wasn't it. I mean I know what you did is possible, I'm just impressed with how fast you managed to do so well. I don't need a video for now, but thank you for trying to help :). I will focus on fixing issues after the jam, and only then I'm going to focus on balancing, and adding more content.
My one follow up question is about the speed of the character. Did you intentionally made it faster, or tried to keep it slow?
