The contrast between the menu and the game is uncanny haha.

The game is not has bugged had you implied it would be ;)

Well done making the art and sprites, they are pretty good, the game itself is fun to play.

I feel like the health is a big cheat as I never was in danger thanks to that, but I guess without it would have been way too hard ;)

However, I do not know why after messing so much with the UI, you did not put a way to go back to the menu from inside the game haha, if I need to leave the game midway I just have to shut it down by force which is not cool :/ But that is a minor point (even if I think it is major).

But anyway, Will, Mario, well done. :)

Nice game, it just needs a bit of polish, especially the main menu, because it one of the most deciding factors when it comes to people playing your game. Regardless, good job!
