Not much progress lately. Work and summer stuff have been keeping me busy ๐Ÿซ 
I messed around a bit with the character jump settings.
Not a big change, if any, but I think the jumps feel a bit more responsive now ๐Ÿ˜… #gamedev #solodev #indiegames

Iโ€™ve been slowly coming to the same conclusion lately. There is just not enough time for everything. You have made a bold move chasing your dream, and I really admire that. For me the risk still feels too big at the moment. Wishing you all the best on your gamedev journey! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I think combos like this really matter, even in a cozy game. The best reward for the player is simply being able to perform them and experience the characterโ€™s fluid movement. and that satisfying feeling of being in control. These shouldn't be too easy or too hard either. Looks good! ๐Ÿ‘Œ
