Performance
Game may run slow on some browsers depending on your device, if the game feels slow or floaty playing the downloadable version should fix that. (you can use the video as a reference for how the game should be)

Too Difficult?
While play testing the game I got a lot of practice in and this may have led to me underestimating the difficulty of the bosses. If this is the case here are some useful tips to help you out!
- You are immune while attacking and for a few frames afterwards so you can use this to attack a boss safely through its own attacks
- Make good use of your double jump by repeatedly spinning platforms to refresh it
- Use your spin mode (W key) wisely as it can deal a massive amount of damage, while a boss is entering its second phase is usually a good window while it is still
- Repeatedly spinning a platform while you are on the side or bottom allows you to cling to the side of the platform
- You can watch my video of me fighting the bosses if you are struggling to figure out how the attacks should be dodged
- You can use the boss select mode to practice against a specific boss, the triangle boss is the easiest to might be a good one to start with
