Yeah, I think we made it a little too hard, I want to tweak balance a bit. But maybe proper introducing of the mechanics would help.
Currently, we have an Escape ability, which charges with every 2 stars and allow 2 seconds of invincibility (doesn't save from hands tho).
We also thought to give some fast typing QTE to survive hands if they got you, but didn't have time to do it.
With sounds we definitely need to make changes smoother and add a few.
Thank you for playing and for your feedback!
