I was shockingly invested in the game, and I was surprised by how wreadable the 16x16 was. Good Job!

There were some pretty clever ideas here. I personally would have preferred a cleaner, less shaded look, but for what it's going for it's pretty clever. 

I wasn't sold on the style in the first couple of screens, but as soon as the combat started and more audio came in, you sold me quickly. It is amazing how much the audio can carry the graphics in this game. It plays surprisingly well (people have to play it to understand, I think).  It would be hard to convey what this game is without having them play it. This was a blast to play, all around. The puzzles are interesting, and the combat is about as good as I could imagine for the player and enemies being single pixels. The end, I found to be a little easy, but that doesn't take away from the experience. Excellent work here!

Superrrr clever here :D

I was toying with the idea of doing a roguelike with every entity being 1 px…. but you have pulled it of so much better than I would have by a looooong shot.

Glad I got to play it :D

This was a fascinating use of the space given. Good job!

I am really hyped about the positive response from you! Thx

Magical, already one of my reference for this jam.
Usually I try to give some advice with the little knowledge that I have, but I'm speechless here.
Great experience, less pixels than most of the other games but can tell a lot. Every detail immerse us in the story as well as making the imagination working.
Wonderful game.

This was great! I thought the environment was impressively readable given the resolution, it was very clear to me when there was water vs. when it was drained, and how the brown squares represented steps to enter or exit the empty pools. The little touches like the subtle lighting and the visual effects of the water really went a long way in creating an interesting atmosphere. Great puzzles, too. Awesome job!

Great use of voice and audio to create that atmosphere. For someone with a vivid imagination that is completely enough. Simple squares became musty dungeons or creepy monsters and even a single pixel started oozing with life, really felt like a true adventure. Also, some solid puzzling and a worthy final encounter.  Excellent stuff!

Nice job! I think your room design and the general aesthetic was really good given the constraints. And the VO work was top notch! The snarly boss was my favorite. 

Lots of atmosphere in a small package.

Gorgeous usage of pixels animations and music, a piece of truly fine art
