It was glitching out in the beginning and not shooting any of my bolts. To this moment I'm still not sure what the hammer icon does too lol.

I really like the strategy of combining the Ghost rune and the Piercing rune and sniping two different imps across the map (saving a crucial Bolt rune in the last level).\n\nAs for the collision system, there might be some bugs that bolts always go to the right-hand side after bouncing back off a wall. However, it doesn't matter that much since I can still beat the levels without using Bouncing runes.\n\nDespite the simple graphic, the sound effect is just fascinating.

For me the biggest improvement could be to the rune system, because personally I didn't understand what some of the symbols meant and how combinations would change things.
