Hey, I'll get to work on it. First thing, I should clarify that this is the x button only on controllers. For keyboards, dash is 'shift'. Is the x button on your controller not working for dash? Does the shift button work for dash on your keyboard?
I think I found the problem. You must first be moving in a direction before pressing shift in order to dash in that direction. In a later update, after adding some visual indication of where the player is facing, I intend to make it so that pressing shift while stationary will have the you dash in the last direction you were facing.
