Another metroidvania! This was cute but everything just felt slow, especially with the amount of times you need to navigate back and forth through the same areas. I really liked having the central mechanic of a spear that you upgrade throughout the game but the dog as a mechanic felt horrible and was very glitchy, the part where you need to use it on the button I just skipped over. The spear being used for both platforming and combat was neat but the combat was lacking and with only a limited amount of enemies in the game that don't respawn I was left wanting a little more.  Having most of the falls result in you just having to repeat a section you've already done several times was a little bit cruel. I still got some enjoyment out of it, though. Overall, nicely done.

Almost everything out the movement feels great! With the exception of the spears, they feel overall slow. The amount of times I tried to throw a spear while jumping, or running and was just denied is countless. The story however, was really fun! It's simple, but made a great addition. Still one of my favorite games from round 1!

I really like the idea behind throwing a spear and being able to use it as a platform. Good work.
