I absolutely love the art style! It's not often that you see a game drawn in colored pencils. The gameplay was actually pretty smooth, so kudos to you for that. My only major criticism at this point is your monsters: they look a little too much like the Wisps from SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog series. Be careful—parody laws will only give you so much protection, especially since this isn't a STH fangame. It's okay to be original. Even if you don't think they look cool, at least they'll be yours.
