The force arrows MK2 are looking like normal force arrows but they aren't pointing in one of the 8 directions but clockwise and conter-clockwise. If you stand on one of them at the end of a turn, your sword will be rotated in the direction of the arrow.

Ugh... I don't think any of the devs wants to set a precedent for tiles that automatically move/turn Beethro. (Except for stairs, of course...)

How about tiles that, when Beethro stands on them, either let him turn in only one direction, or not at all?

(That would sort out all those rooms that have you place a mimic between bombs just to achieve a similar result...)

np: Autechre - Basscadet (Incunabula)

Ok, if you stand on a CW arrow you can not swing your sword CCW (and vice versa). Does this sound better?

Yes it does. It sounds much better.
