Cosmic Boll (SAGE 2023)

Amazing combination of gameplay styles. Great game

Really cool game, controls have a bit of a learning curve due to the nature of how your different forms change what the button combinations do. I think there's at least 3 ways to do a forward dash. Might be better with some omission. Also neat to see a Clickteam Fusion game on here. It seems impossible to make a game with the engine without introducing some jank to it but there wasn't anything that ruined my experience from it. I do think I got softlocked in stage 1-2 towards the beginning, not sure if I was missing a mechanic or alternate path that would lead me further in the level. Looking forward to seeing how this develops further.

I do wanna add, it's hard to get a good grip on your character because he's either going too slow with his sluggish acceleration or he's literally blitzing across the screen. I'd like to have a faster walking speed for microadjustments in platforming and combat, but if that's how it's supposed to be I'll live with it.

Well you can double tap foward to run to top speed instantly. Also, skipping the tutorial in the demo unlocks the running shoes in the pause menu, which enables the speed boost that's normally obtained from having comet orbs equipped. See if it feels better that way.
