this absolutely blew me away how good it was! i played it twice on my gameboy color

the art really makes the most of the palettes available and itself is stunning  - my jaw dropped when i got into the area with the trees

i can say the same for the music it is really good - if you made it i applaud you and otherwise amazing choice

i loved the vibe of the game! the portraits really add so much and the characters designs are super fun. having the character gain abilities by getting less hung over is brilliant.

THE BOSS FIGHT WAS SO GOOD! i felt like i could actually learn their patterns and beat them hitless.

obviously can't say much for level design since this is the start of the game and not final although i think double jump being the first upgrade isn't a good idea as it can make platforming a bit too trivial

the only thing that got me was i didn't realise the chairs were checkpoints because the indicator looked like a coin to me and the chairs blended into the background but that could also be the less vibrant colours on actual hardware

eager to see more! also if there's anywhere you post updates i'd totally follow that :)
