This has a strange dreamlike quality that I really dig, it's subtly creepy even without the enemies. The level design works well in the sense that I was funneled in the right direction while on the run and not thinking much. And yet it didn't feel totally linear. The look is cool, though a bit hard on the eyes. I was confused by the diamonds. Thought I was teleported to somewhere else on the same map instead of to a new level, and at one point near the end I started wondering if there's some puzzly aspect I'm missing. So maybe it outstayed it's welcome by a level. But overall a surprisingly interesting entry.
Thank you for your thoughts and kind words! We're glad you experienced just the ambiance we were going for with the game :) The diamonds indeed just take you to the next level, there isn't much more to it.

Really interesting lighting in this game, very unusual (in a good way) for this retro aesthetics.
I dig this art! I've wanted to do a 2d raytraced game myself... Seems hard! Nice and simple though, Good work!
