Interesting graphics.

Was the sketchy slightly moving lines around the objects on purpose? Or a side effect of something?

Also - how did you find the experience developing games using ClojureScript?

Yes, they were on purpose, I really like the style of old cartoons and they do this - cuphead also does something similar. I wrote about the clojurescript development experience in the github readme ( https://github.com/milgra/cljs-brawl ), it was pleasant, I will port my other C/OpenGL games as soon as I have time.

Why do some of the action keys get stuck down and enter a repeat loop on mobile? Is this more of a keyboard-only type of game?

It needs more polishing and more mobile testing.

I tried to jump up a wall and fell through it while being stretched out :)

I will add a bounce back and collapse effect and energy loss :)

I can crouch and the vast majority of enemies attacks don’t hit. Great fluidity overall
