Fun game! I like the graphics a lot. The colors used are pleasant on the eyes, and the sprites are simple, but good. I'm a big platformer fan, so I really enjoyed the gameplay. The dash was fun, but I wish it was on another button since I usually use A and D to move, which made it hard to hit the X button. I liked the idea of the camera framing each room to make the player only focus on what's important, but sometimes the camera didn't follow the player quickly enough, and sometimes it move to the room above me briefly. There was also a visual bug where the background got these weird lines for some reason? I'm not sure what caused the lines, since they just appeared at random... The entire game kind of reminded me of the escape sequences from the Metroid games, especially with the music and countdown. Overall, I liked this game! Good job :)

Hi! I'm the designer of this game. Thank you for your comment!
Yes, the dash button was a big oversight which I did not think of since I usually play with arrow keys. Sorry about that.
I apologize for the camera and visual bugs, but I'm glad you still had fun. We were going for a Metroid vibe so I'm glad you picked up on it!
