Could reaally use some iframes. I couldn't get out of the room where you get long jump because I kept getting stunlocked by the enemies in the previous room. I also kept having issues with enemies walking offscreen and then jumping out or shooting a projectile without me having a chance to react.
Those issues with the combat aside, this was a really solid metroidvania! Felt really pleasant to control. Visually the pixel art is just stunning, the rays of light in the forest are particularly a really nice touch. Though, there's some odd tile usage in a few spots - might just be jam time constraints showing though? I assume that's also why there's no real background for the caves.
Music was also really good! Main forest theme gave me some nice Kirby vibes, fit well with the enemy designs there I think.
