I liked the visuals. Other than that I wish jump was not Up arrow but it is just me. Good entry.

Gorgeous game! Excellent use of color and all the sprites are delightful. Would absolutely adore a version that supports gamepad so definitley yell if that's ever an option! Love all the dialogue from the grim reaper too. I too would love a pizza party in lieu of health care LOL.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! There actually should be game pad functionality already, I just didn't explain that anywhere lol.  Any controller should work but on a playstation controller "X" is jump and square is attack. You'll just need a mouse for the menu buttons.

ooh gotcha! Will definitely give that another shot then!
