i really enjoyed it! short and sweet, the upgrades make for fun mobility, and i really like the boss fights, all of them being pretty nice and challenging (although, i got a crash in the middle of the final boss, but it was a one time occurence lol)
the art is amazing, all the character designs are great, and it really takes me back to the days of hand-drawn Newgrounds flash games
i'd say it could use more options for getting around the castle, but i can call it a nitpick when i still somewhat enjoyed walking and jumping about, and it's not like we're dealing with a whole planet or giant kingdom, like in plenty of other Metroidvania style games
i unfortunately dont have my own cash to give you, but i would LOVE to buy a more expanded version of this game, with more places to see, more cool enemies, more eggs and more Gun Kobold action lol
tl;dr: 10/10, would save lizard friends again
