Cute graphics. I included it in my CGA Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)

This was a very interesting game, and although you mention E3 distracting you, I can tell you put a lot of work into this!

I ran into a problem with the dialog, the second passages would only appear for roughly a second before disappearing.

Also, it would be nice to be able to shoot in whatever direction I'm facing, instead of having to hold down the arrow keys to shoot in a direction other than down.

Nice idea, interesting story, and cute art. Overall, well done :)

Awesome game!  Needs more hooch!  :)

I like the aesthetic of the game, it is nice looking.

 My critiques for improvement would be that the text is a little hard to read. It also broke mid way through and would only appear for half a second at a time.

I do like the main characters heart tail. When in combat I do not like that I have to hold down the up control to shoot upwards because of the character turning around.

Also was not able to beat the game after killing on the fish in the cavern.

Overall, gg though look forward to seeing more games from you.
