Alright, what a game. Dude you've made something good here.
It is super challenging to be honest and can be very frustating early on lol, but I still had ton of fun playing it.
To me you should have lower down some of the difficulty by reducing the hitbox of the player for example, it feels like a damn roguelike now lol.
You're 100% respecting the theme with this, it's a really fun entry to the jam. Congratz!
