Really struggled with controlls at first and some 'combat' mechanics had those invisible walls your soul could't get through, plus it returning back after hitting spot and instantly getting damaged by some random thing that was passing starting point took me some time to get used to.
Loved those equipped items effect - made me laugh a lot when I first saw them! A bit disorienting with mask, but I mean... it is a mask after all!
Overal combat mechanic idea was great! A bit clunky to control at times, and I personally think it would feel much better without the teleport back feature, but it was really solid idea for sure!
Theme also was neat - two worlds with different passways is always a good idea!
