Hahaha I didn't expect a cinematic experience when I entered this jam. Way to go nailing the ambiance and making a world in such a short time.

Quite interesting!
I might have to replay for that second half later, because I went and got myself stuck due to having moved a certain something then going back when it was gone.

Thanks for the feedback! I was trying to fix issues with getting the custom font to load properly but didn't want to hide the page publicly. Should be all set! Please continue to let me know if you run into problems.

Awesome use of the tileset! Loved the smooth movement while still staying snapped to the grid. Super clean.

LOL your comment made me realize there was an issue with getting the game's custom font to load. The "j" character is the heart pixel, hence the jjjj. The game now runs as a browser game, and the custom font should load properly. Thank you for your kind words!
