i loved this!! a lot of the comments are talking about apollyon (and he is VERY good, love him), but i want to give a shoutout to my boy cooper. everytime he was in a scene i started smiling uncontrollably, also his collared jacket is cute <3. laughing forever at the idea of him and des stuck with apollyon as a third wheel in hell for all eternity!!

Developer

Your comment made my day, I can't stop smiling!! Thank you for all the Cooper love, he means a lot to me <3 Wherever he and Des go, Apollyon is surely there, haha

I really liked your take on the jam's theme!!! The sprites are also beautiful, apollyon's design is *chefs kiss* I also really enjoyed the dynamic between des & apollyon :) some really nice work!!! :D

Developer

Thank you for liking Apollyon's design, I spent more time than necessary on it for a jam I think, haha! I'm also very happy you liked his and Des' dynamic, it was super fun writing for them <3

I don’t think I’d ever want to be under Apollyon’s care, but it was so fun reading him! You created a very interesting group of characters, and I could see us following them for many stories to come! :]
