Solid movement and generation.
I like the feel of exploration in here!

I did notice that you are able to shoot across rooms to kill other enemies on occasion, so I would suggest having your pellets break when hitting a wall.

Overall though, this is a solid game with room for growth. :)

The hole to death was unfair!! I liked the game! The music is very calming and the sound effects where very well picked. Nice job!

Please, play my game too! I would really appreciate your feedback!

Nice job getting a fully functional rogue like together in 3 days. The level generation seemed very solid and I it was nice hunting for keys to get those bonus points.

Relaxing game, pleasant atmosphere of light sadness.

Love the pixel art and the sound, The keys are usefull?

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the comment. If you are asking what the keys are for, they can open chests that may randomly spawn in some rooms to give you extra points. I wanted to add locked doors but couldn't find a good way to implement them with my current generation code in time.

Very enjoyable little dungeon crawler. You can tell a lot of work has gone into the map generation in the 3 days, and it’s very impressive. The sprites are cute and the music really sells the mysterious environment.

Developer

I really appreciate this comment! I thought I would get very stuck on the map generation but managed to get it down eventually. Thanks for playing!

Nice dungeon crawler. I would invest a little more in effects and feedback. For example, something as simple as the sound of shooting. It’s a little effort to set it and it would add a lot! The base is there. If you could have time just to polish polish polish this would be supersolid.

Developer

You're right, I wanted to add some kind of sound effect for shooting but couldn't decide what it should sound like so I just left it blank. I'll try to keep a mind on feedback since I know your game did a great job on that. Thanks for playing.
