Thanks for all the feedback, I did just today find out area 3 had major problems and once I can update the game they will all be fixed, that soft lock in Area 2 is new to me so I'll have to play around to figure out why it broke there specifically. The music is all original and I am not musically inclined so I tend to lack on any sound front. The level design is big, but you tend to move through most of the level without getting overwhelmed so i thought it was a decent way to move through the world. I'll change the Checkpoints too as that is a really good idea that I didn't think to implement. It needs a lot of polish still but hopefully after a few updates it meets your expectations a bit further.

Yes--to be clear, I have some expectations but when I'm judging what I'm mainly hoping to do is help people improve generally. Generally, as long as you look back and can say you're a better game dev than you were a few weeks or months ago, I'm happy for you. But if you do want me to give it a replay in a version or two, feel free to find me on the MVM discord or respond again in this thread.
