Could you add the gamepad controls to the itch page please?
Done.
This was really fun to play and is quite polished. The placement of save points is perfect. They're spaced just far enough apart that you need to be careful but it's not too punishing if you take some damage. The boss battles are pretty impressive. Also banger music, well done!
Thank you for your kind words!
