Really excellent game. Probably my favorite so far! There is a lot of potential here. I hope you'll continue working on it in the future. :)

Very cool! Definitely getting the metroid vibes. Only saw a little bit of animation from the flys - could definitely use a bit more to liven things up or a background. When I died, I saw a really cool glitched screen.

The Family VigilThanks for checking it out!
There isn't much animation to it yet, just the fly enemies (and one other enemy type). I actually only got around to throwing in those animations right before submitting, so I plan to expand on it (and enemy variety in general) in the future. If I can figure out how to animate the background tiles, I'd like to do that with the waterfalls and such as well.
The glitched screen is likely the result of a bug dealing with room positioning when trying to respawn at a checkpoint (I haven't had much time to bug test outside of a quick run through to the end screen). Do you by chance know which statue you had last visited when you died?
I ended up figuring out this bug and it is fixed in the updated version if you are interested in checking it out. Thanks again for letting me know about the bug!
Loved the multi gameness aspect of it. RPG and the Platformer options were pretty fun! I suck at the platforming part though..
Bad music was definitely bad and good music was good!
Great concept!

Deep Dive RescueBy the way, I just hopped onto the Discord, and I saw that you streamed playing some of the games so I decided to check it out. It looks like you may have accidentally ended up on my submission's page when trying to rate "Gamejammin", so I figured I should give you a heads up
