as an avid Mooncat enjoyer I love the concept of cool control schemes, so I was ready to really like this one! However, these controls feel like an extreme version of mooncat, to the point where it can be super frustrating to do anything. There were often times where I thought I input the right input, but got a different result. Could be a skill issue on my part, but it was very frequent, even happening when I thought I had the controls figured out. Plus with the controls, the enemies feel very punishing. I feel like the game is hard enough as is to get used to the controls.
But overall, its a really cool interpretation of the theme, and the artstyle is really neat for being so simple!
