Thanks a lot for playing and for the praise! I really tried to make the level design and the pacing feel great, and seeing that someone did notice these things (including the speedrun shortcuts) is very rewarding. About the bug, I'll try to reproduce it as well, thanks for pointing it out and giving some info on how it happened!
Also, sorry for the limited controls, I'll definetly add more options on future games, and on this one as well in a future update :)
Finally, in case you are interested, this video helped me a lot on how to make better Level Design, allowing for different play styles and skill levels. I still got lots to improve, but this video already helped me a gigantic amount. Once again, thanks a lot for your feedback!
