However, I think 2 things could have been done to make it even more empowering:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- Allowing the player to control the monster's movement.  By the game being an auto-scroller, I think it distances the player from the character.  I didn't really &quot;feel&quot; like the monster.\r<br\/>- Having sound effects.   The silence made the action feel very soft (for lack of a better word).  I honestly think some explosions would work wonders.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The controls felt a bit odd at first, but I became second nature after a few plays.  I enjoyed figuring out what each attack did, and when it was best to use it.  One thing I would recommend is putting in a line about being able to aim your fire attack.  That was a game changer for me.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The cartoony graphics worked well, and implementing a high score really encourages repeat plays.  Glad to see you participated in another Ludum Dare."},{"author_name":"SecondDimension","author_uid":"14838","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 9:06pm","epoch":1440622860,"text":"I would have liked to control the monsters movements directly, but I having the auto movements did allow you to use all of the arrows keys for the different attacks, which i liked.  I got into a good rhythm of bashing stuff, timing the purple attack to get rid of the missiles and then using the fire breath.  It took me a a little while to figure out you could aim the fire, and once I started doing that it felt pretty cool and I managed to get a better score (logged in to Scirra arcade to record a score and got a worse one!)"},{"author_name":"glerikud","author_uid":"55555","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 9:37pm","epoch":1440624720,"text":"I expected the monster to be a bit faster, and the attack were slow for me as well.
