I love the concept!! After the jam, if you decide to extend development please let me know and I'd love to see where you go with it :)) the idea of a game where you can feel the swing in real time sounds awesome
of course :) I'm thankful the game could do that for you. I'm not sure if you found this while playing, but if you move the mouse off the edges of the journal, you can look to the mushrooms in the dirt, the stars, the campfire, and the raccoon, and sit there and watch the fire rise and fall or the raccoon do a little dance for as long as you'd like
thanks for the feedback :) After the game jam is done, I might go in and add the things you've mentioned. I like the idea of attack previews and I'll probably find a way to add those in. The hero is meant to move somewhat like a player, looking for empty squares and moving when it can but occasionally messing up, though some playtesting and valuable feedback (like yours :D ) are good for balancing it out a bit. I'm very glad you brought up the inconsistency of the sword and the hero's attack style, might give him a bow or a "nerf weapon" after jam done :))
