No need to apologize, thanks for playing! You've got quite a good time now, and I'm glad you figured out the shortcut! You're very close to my record and I wonder if you could beat it! I've got a time of 01:09:33 and I think you definitely are on the right track!

Thanks so much for playing and thanks for recording! The frame-by-frame style of the movements is an intentional choice, we wanted to emulate the frame look that can found in hand-drawn animation. We hope that you enjoyed it!

Thank you for the feedback! We'll take those notes on the level to heart!

Edit: Also about the level itself, the combat arena has a door that is meant to open once all of the enemies in the arena are defeated. This is the same kind of door that can be found at the end of the level as well.
