Where's the best place to give feedback?
Positives:
I'm loving the music so far, really awesome chiptunes, great vibes. I love the fast paced movement and combat, and responsive controls. I'm not sure how much patience I'll have for the precision platforming, but it feels really well done.
Suggestions:
-Default controls for the controller weren't my favorite. It's great that customizing them is super easy. I'd suggest these for the defaults:
-I noticed that the defaults for 'scroll right' and 'scroll left' weren't working with the right stick. I don't know if this could be because I changed the defaults, but setting up these two controls to the corrosponding d-pad buttons fixed it.
-Replace the Reddit link with a Lemmy one instead?
Thanks so much for the kind words!
I've been having the worst time trying to get hotlinks to work lately...

(Hopefully that works)
Thanks for the responses, looking forward to playing more of this and seeing it progress!
Thanks this looks great! I may add an option in the initial config menu on first launch to choose the control scheme 🤔
Awesome!
One more thing I wanted to mention real quick; there doesn't seem to be a way to drop through ledges. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but maybe the special move that is mapped to 'down+A' interferes with this (usually) default mechanic?
Yeah I chose to not have passthru platforms, just a personal preference for level design
I respect that.
So, I ended up switching the control scheme again... My reasoning why I switched it up in the first place was because having attack on the 'x' button feels more natural. However, this was making some of the platforming where you have to attack things mid-jump even more difficult. So I switched it back to left bumper = attack, right bumper = block, x = slot 1 (I think this will likely be the final version)
hell yeah!
