The game feels very fluid and controls great! However, the graphics are definitely lacking. I like the main character's design, but everything else looks quite plain.

Thank you for your honest feedback, I really appreciate it! I finished development on this game about a year ago, and i'll admit, I rushed a few things to get it done quicker. I would've loved to do better art, but since I was the only one doing it, I had to make some sacrifices in that area so that I could focus on other things. Your advice is really encouraging, and i'm excited to jump back in and improve the game. I'll do my best to make sure that everything you mentioned is taken care off. Thanks again!

Thanks for the great feedback, jc! I plan on making the crystal-fetching level a bit easier, since it seems a tad bit difficult and tedious for a 'World 1' level. As for the dialogue... you're absolutely right! I'm definitely not a writer. The game does not feature a melee attack, but i'm thinking of adding one! Thanks again for being super helpful!
