Thank you so much for the long comment, a banger oxymoron review as always!!
The music and most of the tileset aren't made by me, but I'm glad you enjoyed their implementation!! For the forest section, I wanted to replicate the feeling of a dark confusing maze, which seemingly worked to the worst extend --' will keep that in mind for any future game.
Also, the game is not supposed to glitch twice so I'm not sure what's up with that. If you obtained the shovel early the second time, I don't see why it wouldn't work... (looked into it, the switch for it doesn't kept its value ;; Gonna patch it now, but you can also try to not get caught by the forest enemies or the sky storm). Oh man, I sure had problems with this one second ending in particular...
Other than that, thank you so much for playing, and thank you so much for the kind words!
