💜😌 kindof-rant incoming, but shamelessly posting it anyways because I am very much in the (assumed) target audience of dorky folk in a certain age range? maybe? so yknow, biased AF.
From the active choice to develope as what is essentially a Gameboy game, to the inclusion of meme easter eggs that, even we folk were jamming to when fresh, were half forgotten and out of mind for... maybe years(?) before seeing again here (in glorious 8-bit!), to the endearing characters and dialog it's mega clear you poured a lot of what you love, of yourselves into this, and can't wait to play any more you put out. Definitely stalking your itch dev page for future endeavors too.
Objectively well designed too. Puzzles felt just right, map layouts felt good, aethetics, etc.
I bet you fnife folks are p cool crew. 😎
