I've been trying out some new mechanics recently. Heres one I started working on today. Design wise though, I'm a bit stuck, so if any one has any suggestions for improving the appearance, I'd love to hear! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamemaker

Testing out a new arrow type that teleports you to its location. Can get you through small gaps, bypass enemies, etc #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #metroidvania #gamemaker
