I didn't include my criticisms as I love nearly every single thing about the game, but a few very small things that I think could improve it are:
- Audio Balance. It's not bad at all, but some music tracks, like when talking to Toadstool/Maddie were louder compared to the rest of the game. Not really a big issue, just something small
- Menu Selection, specifically in Maddie/Toadstool's sections. I found myself accidentally selecting "Exit Menu" like 3 times in a row trying to mash through their intro dialogue to change settings/buy items. The cursor is defaulted to "Exit Menu", so I went in then out like 4 times accidentally. If the cursor could somehow default to nothing it would be a nice small change
- Tree platforms. There's a couple times when you have to jump on trees to advance. Their collision boxes are a little smaller compared to the size of the trees
- Dash Attack. It's a little TOO good. It's laggy so it leaves you a bit vulnerable, but most enemies besides bees/the water snake can be easily defeated by spamming it. This one isn't really a flaw and more of an opinion.
- Save data. They purposely left it out of the demo since it's so short, but it would definitely be appreciated
- Minor Bugs. After getting a game over, I didn't select either option and instead backed out (pressed B?). This caused the game to soft lock. Maybe it was just a one time bug, but who knows.
