I love how you used the hat, that was clever!

I'm glad you had different difficulty modes so that I could keep making progress despite my habit of jumping badly and dying repeatedly. My second time playing I tried broke mode and the devil stole all my gems and eventually my soul.

Cool game! Physics felt a little weird, but a fun platformer overall. Really liked the NES-style graphics.

Nice little game, found the controls a bit fiddly at first (the jump especially), but got it eventually. Missing the "pickaxe" a bit, but perhaps it turns up later in the game?  Really nice work though, will be coming back to this :)

Yeah, taking a page out of Mario, you can only get an ax in castles. Of which there ended up being only one, but you can keep it into new games.

I can confirm there's an axe in it!

Jump is ever so slightly underpowered, which makes it a fair challenge. But it's a well polished game. Well done!

Thank you, fellow Pete connoisseur
