Is there any more you'd like to share about your game?
It would be a zelda-like game which the player is in a dream world called "Nowhere Land", which is a celestial place that was invaded by nightmares. To purgue these nightmares, the player must collect all 3 Magic Crystal shards to put in the Dreamcatcher (both are trinkets!). Then, Nowhere Land would be saved! The game would have several weapons and upgrades to find in the map, and the shards would be pursued by bosses hidden in dungeons you have to find in the map. That's probably it, I will probably make this a real game someday

Is there anyone else who you want to credit?

This is impressively faithful to old school zelda-like graphics, all the little details in forest level and the UI were fun to pick apart, and frankly I just really like the dreamcatcher spritework!

Solid work!

This is so unbelievably - well, believable! You have a real understanding of the graphical limitations of retro systems. I'd play this even with its inevitable lack of save files!

I think you totally hit the retro style on the head. This looks so nice and I love the story you wrote with it.

If you ever do make this a game, please feel free to let me know :>

Great job!

Beautiful work. What an excellent authentic retro style!!! I would absolutely love to play this - do you imagine it's for a specific console?

ty! We imagined it as a NES game when we made it, so much that each tile has a maximum of 4 colors, which was a NES limitation

Absolutely beautiful sprites, titles and tiles. Love how you have really gone in on the text too for that additional context. Lovely job!
