Short, but definitely presents some good ideas.

I think you have a good sense of aesthetics, and actually come fairly close to strong minimalistic art style. The gradient shading/lighting following the main character adds a lot. Unfortunately, this aesthetic is broken by the menu UI, and the off-screen background.

Another powerful characteristic of strong minimalistic art is having consistent sizing and spacing. If you don't have beautiful illustrations, you can embrace the beauty of geometric perfection.

Thanks for the review! Yeah the menu screens were thrown together pretty last minute, I'd definitely have reworked them a bit with some more time. The other bit you may or may not have noticed is that the menus aren't responsive to different screen sizes at the moment, which would have been the next thing I worked on.

I also played and rated your game - very chill and I like your minimalistic art style too!

Heya! A cool use of the algorithm :). I wish there was a simple way to reset. Good job on making your first game, hope to see you next year too!
