ARROWHEAD
In ARROWHEAD, the bow shoots YOU!
Embark on a quest to cross deadly chasms, leap atop tall buildings, and climb to the top of an ancient temple using only... projectile weapons? Our sleepy protagonist finds themselves in possession of an unusual ability: taking on the traits of the items they pick up. Use the tools at your disposal to fling yourself through a series of platforming challenges, climb the heights of the ivy temple, and find yourself a more comfortable place to nap!

bugs:
1. bow and boomerang can clip through ceilings that are 3 blocks or smaller
2. you can teleport to the ceiling with the bow if you have your back to a wall
3. if you get the bow and try to shoot it while you are down, the downed version of you will be shot and wont go far
4. if you get the boomerang and try to shoot it while you are down, you wont get any spin and will be t-posing
5. you can have more than one weapon in your hands at once by equipping the boomerang and then the bow*
* shooting will use the bow but you can travel either like you got shot by the bow or boomerang, you will keep the boomerang
this game is so fun, wish it was longer tho
I love the game. Particularly its animations. 10/10
i shot the bow while semi close to the wall and i noclipped
other than that tho 10/10 game of the year i actually love this game
great game i love speedrunning it
Really short but really fun! This is a great concept
10/10 clipped through a wall and cheated to the end
same
me too
I CAN DO THE CLIP CONSISTENTLY
The clip works when you hit a ceiling of 3 or less blocks with either the bow or boomerang quickly
me too
Really cool mechanics! The boomerang effect can be a little disorienting, it could use some extra UI pointers to help the player know what the path is going to look like. Otherwise great stuff and keep up the good work!!
