Post-Mortem:
A novel mechanic requires copious testing. While the visual aesthetics and feedback was there, the interest curve is not there, the character is sluggish, the player isn’t taught how to be successful at the game. These facts would come up with rigorous testing.

Again I tried novel mechanics, but a game will never turn out well simply by implementing my thoughts. This could have been a great piece with more attention given to the player’s needs.
