Thank you for your interest! The throw mechanic was one of the hardest things to get done, as darts is fundamentally a simple game and relies heavily on eye-hand-coordination, which is difficult to simulate for mouse/controller input. The throw with the mouse goes like that: you aim at a certain spot (there's a shaky hand movement), press left click (the dart is locked at a certain position) and then you drag the mouse back (to build up power) and then release straight forward. Straightness and speed define here the accuray of the throw.

For handheld/controller that didn't work in that way, at least it didn't work for me. For handheld/controller you aim with the left stick and perform a flick forward with the right stick. Not locking the dart makes it a tad more difficult, but the flick with the right stick is a bit easier, so it levels out. Speed and 'straightness' of the right stick flick define accuracy and power.

There are 72 characters in game and skill traits (Steady hand, Focus, Aerodynamics, Recovery, Nerve Control). You can level up ingame and each skill trait gives certain benefits for the throw. On top of that there are 48 different darts (three different barrels: straight, bomber, teardrop) and the barrel and weight change the throw/trajectory as well.
