Thank you for the feedback, I'll take it into account.
I do plan to make the map smaller, and add a compass/tracking mechanic after the gamejam. For now, a hint is that the enemies leave behind red footprints, like breadcrumb trails. A lot of ppl find the end-game part tedious, so I'll for-sure fix it up.
(This is the footprint sprite)
With the controls, I'll adjust them too. Thank you for the feedback!
Oh! I wish I had picked up on those. I think I had assumed that they were blood effects from me stabbing the crowd, or part of the background (since there is some red in the ground tileset). It might help to make them look a bit more obviously footprint shaped, or possibly removing the other red from the background? Either way I tried it again and knowing they're there definitely does help!
My plan is to include a tutorial level that explains it, and yes, i'll make them more footprint shaped.
