This game is HARD! But I was really pleased with myself when I beat it. Getting to that last checkpoint was brutal, much harder than the boss, lol.
I'm guessing you're planning on adding more metroidvania elements eventually.
The double energy bars confused me a bit at first, and I agree with FallingWallGames that the energy limit is really punishing. Overall though I had fun!
thanks for the feedback!
yeah the section before the boss is probably where i needed to balance the difficulty the most
there were more metroidvania powerups originally but the other sections of game were removed in order to focus on making this first area presentable
i didnt put much consideration into how to teach the health system. i suppose you just die when running out of energy since you only have one heart for this first area. so didnt think enough about that
