----------------------------------
- When Volar is on the ground, an arrow will rotate around them, Hold down spacebar to pause the arrow rotation, then release to jump in that direction. While jumping the air, press spacebar again to air dive. This gives you precise control if you mistimed a jump or are too close to an enemy. If you air dive on top of physics blocks, you will crack/break them.
- While in the air, if Volar is near a ledge, they will automatically ledge hop onto the higher ground. This is useful when almost making a jump.
- Power ups give an extra ability and allow you to take one extra hit of enemy damage. Certain power ups, such as the Fire Mask, will automatically active when making contact with the ground after air diving. The Fire Mask will burn surround wood blocks and enemies. Other power ups, such as the Rocket, are activated when double-tapping while in the air. Power ups are reset once Volar touches the ground again.
- Hearts allow one extra hit from enemy damage.
- Coins are scattered throughout each level. Coins are used to purchase power ups that you've already found during gameplay. Coins can also be used to purchase Outfits which change the look of Volar but do not affect gameplay.
- There is a secret power up unlocked at the very end of the last level.
