Amazing setting and really good soundtrack.
Definitely invokes that Metroidvania vibe.
I didn’t like how the dash went sideways even though I was holding W. This got so annoying that I had to leave it be for now. Got the mask and got to one of the shops with the golden mask.
Never really figured out how to fight the snails. Also fighting against the lizard type creatures resulted in me losing a heart almost every time.
It would be great if going to a checkpoint healed you. Or if there where more vases to break. So that the player could heal easier.
Impressive work!
