I love this :)
First of all, I really like the artstyle and music. I can't find the words to describe it but it's just very cute and fitting for the game. So are the sound effects, which are sooo satisfying and I found myself collecting coins just to hear the sound they make :P
But what I loved the most is how the hyperbolic tiling changes the way you explore the world. There's no more "I already went that way" and you can't completely rely on what you see in the distance, so you find yourself following paths until you get somewhere new.
I didn't mind the combat or lack of features (it's an alpha after all, although I hate those quick white lizards), and I wouldn't mind if ended up being an unfinished project. What I really hope is that it inspire other people to use concepts from this game and keep innovating like you did.
Good luck with the rest of it!
