Thank you for the high praise! Kudos to our composer! I recommend try reaching stage 20 to also hear the solo they have made :)
Yeah you are right. That was a big oversight from our side as the specials staying in your hand was a debug feature we forgot to remove. Will definitely fix this with a future update after the jam alongside more bosses that were planned but weren't implemented in time so look forward to that!
Hopefully it was still fun overall!
