The movement felt a little weird, I found the shoot jump very inconsistent to use and the enemies didn't seem to take any damage because the gun didn't visibly harm them in any way. It would be hypocritical to complain about enemies blending into the background given that's what my game is about but it did make the shooting aspect a little difficult given I had no clue where to aim half the time. Don't be disheartened tho, you clearly have bucketloads more programming skill than I do and I wish you all the best.
I agree that I didn't give enough instructions for new players. I personally love games that don't give many instructions and leave most of the game for players to explore (like Rain World), but that's probably not a good design for such a short game like this.
If you want to jump for the max amount of height, you should attack and jump at the same time. The light attack can only hurt dark enemies and the dark attack can only hurt light enemies. You'll know that they got hurt when you see them being pushed/pulled by your attacks.
Also, the pulling force given by the dark attack is depending on the distance between you and walls. The closer you are to the walls, the stronger the pull is. Another hidden fact is that your horizontal movement speed doesn't go down, even when you are on the ground, as long as you are holding the movement key with the same direction you are moving. This allow you to skip some areas if you are good enough.
I'll probably add these information in the description later.
Do a rocket jump just like Soldier from TF2, but with a flashlight. Also the dark attack is kinda a grappling hook, except the pulling force is harder the closer you are to the walls.

I may be a little dumb but I don't know how to pass the first wall.

Thanks for the help. It's a cool game. The feeling of the gun is nice once you understand how it works. The latest additions really improve the game.
However I find it a little too difficult for me. Despite many attempts, I always die before the end.
i like the concept but movement is very disorienting
May you explain what makes you feel that way? Is it because the camera moving speed is too fast? Or is it because the background makes your eye sore?
the act of shooting moving you around too much and the background can get disorienting
So basically both. Got it. Will try to fix that in the next version.
I have updated the game and make it more appealing to eyes. Feel free to take a look at what have changed 😀
