Overall enjoyable. Really liked having the music and enemies not appear until getting the first upgrade. A few criticisms:
- The spikes and these decorative crystal(?) things have very similar shapes. This is generally fine since spikes tend to line floors and ceilings, however there is ONE rogue spike sitting on top of a platform that is very easy to overlook and get killed by.
- Enemies can sometimes hit you from almost a full tile away.
- It would be nice is items equip automatically and before the game is saved so that the player doesn't have to remember to equip their new item again after a death.
