This was fun. Cool graphics and music. Controls are smooth (smoother than most Castlevania games, in fact, except for the Symphony of the Night lineage! :) ).

I beat the "boss" very easily, and managed to get the cheering sound effect, but couldn't figure out how to get past the first level anyway.

One quibble: it is a bit misleading how the player starts out with so many hearts, but falling on spikes takes away *two* hearts. This is somehow counterintuitive, because spikes are the first hazard we encounter in the entire game.

Nice work, for some reason mine lagged out as soon as i landed on a spike, not sure why, ive played some "heavy" games on this jam, and didnt have an issue like that.

I believe some onscreen instructions - would have made this game alot more accessible.

Would like if i dont slide down on small slopes. But everything else is ok
