Fun game, not sure if it is on my end only but I couldn't aim my broom and the shooter never worked, but had a lot more to it than i expected =) keep up the amazing work!
That's strange cause it works well here.
Thanks for playing :D
Huh not sure then musta been something on my end idk. Wish I coulda gotten further in it x.x well at least it works then :p
Mmmm... when you say you can't aim and shoot, did you mean you can't aim at all? or you can aim but can't shoot?
Oh I think I understand. BroomStickBot is metroidvania and you can't shoot when game starts. It goes without saying that you have to explore and find powerup to allow shooting.
