Hey, thanks for giving me this feedback. The game is random, but the first level you play is always the easiest level. The other levels get really hard, so we did this to let new players have a chance to learn the mechanics without practice.
Hey piggles, what control scheme were you using. We included two. You might have tried to mix and match. One the them was : C - jump, X - dash, arrows keys to move. The other was: Space - jump, shift - dash, wasd to move.
@p-dude Hey! A lot of people have said that the dash was weird. We have been working to fix it and it feels better now. I hope you'll give it a second chance once some of the bugs and controls are fixed.
