I'm definitely glad I put that checkpoint there, I think it could have been pretty frustrating without it. And thank you! This was my first crack at making a soundtrack, so I'm glad it turned out well.
You did well. Specially because it is a Jam and people wants to have the quickest experience to keep voting more game. If it was a full release with more quests and upgrades it would make sense as a Roguelite-platformer or something.
