Oh my goodness I did not know you could even do this kind of ornate architectural art with such low resolution. I love the fallen opulence of the city; it has such a sense of place and history. (Realizing it's from the mind behind Storming the Ivory Tower... makes so much sense!)
Thanks so much! I was actually honestly worried that the architecture was TOO ornate and overly difficult to navigate so I'm glad it's breathtaking rather than suffocating, if that makes sense.
Incidentally I ended up making the game because I just got really interested in the question of how to represent staircases with such minimal graphics and such rigid movement constraints... so it's not surprising the architecture stands out. Everything kind of grew from the architecture outward.

Lovely graphics!!! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the Bitsy Jam: Moth games, if you’d like to take a look :)

Interesting! It took half a second to parse stairs and ladders, but after that it was easy enough to read them.
I love this so much.
