Thank you. I am proud I made the art myself this time and it turned out well, good to know you liked it too. The gen 2 pokemon sprites were used as a reference, and the jump animation was actually referenced from Link's Awakening DX. As for the puzzles, I also wanted to make it explorable instead of just focusing on puzzles.
I understand the issues you mentioned, I will try to work on them in the future. Thanks for the feedback!
