This might be the most original game design I've come across in a game jam runthrough, and coming up with unique ideas is not easy once the theme is announced.
Having tried experimenting with second-person in a previous life, it's not easy, and your behaviour system here with the second-person character thinking and navigating on their own was fluid and believable. I also enjoyed the concept of being an evil entity trying to deter the efforts of a protagonist, and found that to be a fresh take on the trope. I wasn't able to do much in that regard to sway the hero elsewise, so ended up lightning striking him, which apparently kills him and makes me a big ol' tyrant. Awesome.
Cool graphics and music as well cap off a very different experience than most games I will play during this jam. Great job!
